Jen's Diary of Random Stuff.... Take Two!!

I agree, girls in glasses are totally HAWT! *pushes glasses back up nose ridge*


Looks like you all had a snowy blast. thats what it looks like here too, tons of snow and when the sun comes out I can't see a dang thing out there. I get so squinty eyed they might as well be shut.
 
AI've been up since 4:30 am. Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh. I am so tired. My lovely boyfriend spent the night last night...and HE had problems sleeping...soooo...I had problems sleeping. Funny how that works, huh? uuuuuuuuugh! He was up and down all night, in the bathroom, sitting up in bed, going out in the living room. By 6:30 I was ready to whack him with something....or tie him to the bed...and not in the fun way! hahaha! Aaaahhh.. I need a nap!! :willy_nilly:

Yup, the snow can be blinding at times. It's not fun! Hopefully it will all be gone soon...... Probably not, but a girl can dream..lol.

AI weighed myself a few days ago and I'm down a few pounds....so I'm happy with that. :) My goal is to lose 45 lbs this year, which is 3.75 lbs a month. That makes it sound really easy, so I like to think of it that way..lol. Anyways...Its nothing spectacular, but its at least something. I haven't been the best the last week, so I'm sure that didn't help. Chef and I were fighting a bit, and my natural reaction is to shovel food into my pie hole..lol. I really need to stop doing that. Things are good now though. I think we're just getting really frustrated with not living together. He moved here last July to be with me. Which is great, but he's working a lot, so we really only see each other 2 or 3 days a week. We're tentatively planning on moving in together in July though, and I'm really excited about it. He is still by far the best thing I've gotten out of this forum. ;) Aaaaanywho.......things are good...I lost a few pounds.. and I'm going to be super busy the next couple weeks. Hope everyone is doing great! :)

Oh and I'm currently obsessed with . It's weird and strangely addictive. I'm pretty sure the dude is the love child of Sting, Peter Gabriel, and Phil Collins...hahahaha.

Ok, that video is way cool. haha, someone said that guy would make a good Joker and, yeah, I could see that :p The song was quite awesome as well!


3.75lb/month is certainly doable! That's a great goal and pace to set for yourself, Jen :) You will definitely do it and maintain!


Sorry to hear you and Chef were fighting a bit :( Once you're living together, I'm sure everything will be much better.


Congrats on your recent weight loss too, Jen! :D

nice work setting some goals. you should be able to do 3-4 pounds a month no problem. congrats of the moving in thing soon. :coolgleama:
 
A Holy flu bug, Batman! I haven't posted in a few days. Over the last ...oh ...3 or 4 days I've lost about 5 lbs. Not the way you want to lose weight though..lol! I've been completely miserable! To top it off my son's 5th birthday party was yesterday, and I being the procrastinator that I am, hadn't went and got his birthday present yet. So Saturday Chef and I headed out to get his present(I was stubborn and insisted on getting it myself), which resulted in me almost passing out in line at the checkout. Luckily I sat down in time and it went away, because that would of been MORTIFYING! I probably would of passed out and messed myself.......MORTIFYING. LOL!. I'm finally feeling better now though.

Today I've been helping my kids make out their Valentine's for school.....OH, and there was that little trip to the ER to have a Lego removed from my son's nose...hahahaha! Sigh...boys.:rolleyes:

AHey Jen I cought up on the past month that I missed, and it's good to read that things are going good for you, great job on the weight loss.

I'm happy to know that you and chef will be moving in together in a few months, I know how much you want to move out of your mothers. After you move in together I am sure times will get a lot more better for you.

Thanks MLB! Glad to see you back! :)



So after my last post where I said that I was feeling better, things took a turn for the worse... my flu came back, and reared it's ugly head for a couple more days. THEN...I felt better for like a whole day..... only to get sick AGAIN. This time it's a cold... sore throat, swollen glands, phlegmy. I just can't win...lol!


I have to say though, I have the best boyfriend. He showed up last night with this......Flowers, medicine, and hot chocolate. I just love him. :)

Awww, nice Jen :)


Although I notice the dreaded 'M' logo on that cup! Ack, Chef! Stay outta that place! You know better :p


But no doubt it made you feel better, so we'll let it slide this time ;)


I'm fully sympathetic to your plight of back-to-back illnesses, Jen :\ Same thing happened to me this year and it sucks!


Feel better soon! :)
 
Haha, aw bless, that's very cute! Sucks you're being smacked by illness over and over, but heck, flowers always help! :D (Combined with coffee and medicine, you can't lose!)

Really nice to hear you're finally going to be able to shift out of the house, too! I've read how crazy you've been going, and sure, we all love our parents -but doesn't mean we wanna live with them forever! I hope the move goes smoothly and without too much stress! Let us know! (I know it's some time away yet but, as they say, time flies! Especially when you're preparing for all of it!) What does your mum think of the whole process? (If that's too personal a question, tell me to f_ off!)
 
AAwww..thanks guys. :)

As far as the moving situation goes, it's still kind of up in the air as far as what my mom will be doing. She can't afford or take care of a house on her own, so if she doesn't move with us(which she really doesn't want to do...and I don't want her to do..hahaha) she'll have to find a roommate or move to a smaller, more manageable place for her. I feel really bad that I'm kind of forcing her into a situation where she might have to leave her home, but I eventually have to do what's right for me and my kids, and she knows that. She does want me to be happy. I hope once all is said and done, that we'll all be better off. :)


....and omg I had the most intense craving for pasta and cheese last night... it was craaaazy! I resisted....mostly due to the fact that I felt like crap and didn't want to go anywhere or make anything.....but hey...whatever works.. LOL.

Girl, I'm gonna be here til this forum dies.... haha! And, of course I remember you! Chef and I are still together, he moved here in July, into his own apartment. We're planning on moving in together this July. :) We've been together 2 years now! :) Glad you're back!!!!!

Pasta and cheese? aka.. Macaroni and Cheese! :p


Oh my. I'd love to have some of that right about now :) Maybe in a couple weeks when I get this annoying water weight off!


Glad to see you resisted that though, Jen! I know how difficult it can be when a craving like that hits. Sometimes even my gum isn't enough, but hey, we just have to do our best :)


I think I'll also be here until this forum dies, lol. It's unfortunate when people hit their goal weights then suddenly disappear. I've seen quite a bit of that, and I understand that real life responsibilities can overshadow online activities. But still, even just a quick hello every now and then? It doesn't have to be a daily or even weekly thing, maybe just come by every month and just let your devoted forum buddies now you're still alive and doing well! :)


I'm not referring to anyone in particular btw. It's just a theme I've seen since I came across this forum years ago.


Anyway, glad you're doing well, Jen! I'm sorry about the slight issues it's causing with your mom :( It's good she understands though! I bet you can't wait for July to come! :]
 
AThanks Greg, and yes, I can't wait for July. :) I just hope everything works out. *fingers crossed* lol! And I agree with you on the forum stuff. I'm also fairly confident that just visiting the site daily has helped me maintain the 45 lb loss from the first year I was on here. I know if I wasn't coming here regularly I would just say to heck with it, and eat myself silly...lol.

As far as weight stuff goes for me.... I weighed myself, and I've put back on the weight I lost while I was sick...but I'm ok with that. I expected it. So...I need to lose 2 lbs by the end of the month to meet my 4lbs/month goal. So we'll see..... hopefully I can do it. :)

Tonight I have to start catching up on work. I haven't hardly worked since I've been sick. It's nice setting your own hours and schedule working from home, but OH MY GOODNESS can you get in trouble with that easily..lol. So back to work for me, or I'm gonna be pretty poor next month..lol! I hope everyone is doing well!

Well you will get back into it, Jen! Being sick sucksssssss! Know what's worse? Being sick back-to-back :\ What a kick in the rump that is for trying to lose weight.


A slight gain is to be expected in those circumstances, and only 2lb is not bad at all :) You got this, Jenny! :D


Btw, I'm so envious of a work at home position.. especially when there's bad weather! I hate going out in snow and ice.. hell, even when its sunny, I hate leaving my house sometimes! haha :p

Aww...thanks Greg. And yes...back to back sickness suuuuuuuucks. I've been doing it for a few weeks now. Just when I think it's over, it smacks me with something else...lol. So not cool. Oh, and we're supposed to get a big snow and ice storm tonight. Should be lots of fun. I hate winter, and I can't wait for it be over with. I need sunshine!! Working from home is nice. Unfortunately I still have to go out at least twice a day to take my kids to school and pick them up. If I didn't have to do that, I would live in pajamas..lol.

Today I was dropping my daughter off at school and saw this lady standing there, she was tiny. TINY. Her daughter, who was probably around 6, had a bigger thigh than she did, and I am not even joking. I can't even imagine being that skinny. I think I'd break. I've always been on the ...uh..."sturdy" size....no...."curvy" ...yeah that sounds better... hahaha ;) I just can't get over how skinny she was. I think I'm in shock...

Anywho..... Not a whole lot going on here. Been sick and trying to work. I've been eating horribly.. HORRIBLY. I haven't weighed myself, and when I do I'm pretty sure I'm gonna cry..hahaha. I have to get my crap together again. I wanna lose some weight by spring/early summer. I'm pretty sure we'll be going down to Cleveland, where Chef's from, to visit his family and friends. I do not want to look like this. So I need to get my butt in gear.

Oh and my current frustration. My ghetto laptop. This thing is hanging on by a thread. It's currently propped up on one side with the charger cord tucked in a loop underneath it. Why? Because there's a short in it, and if I don't have it exactly like that, it won't stay charged. Well I shouldn't even say "charged" cuz it's just running off the ac power. The actual laptop battery won't hold a charge anymore. My "enter" key is missing. And yesterday, my screen started flickering. Soooo.... now every time it flickers, I have a mini heart attack.. lmao. I can't wait to get my tax return!!!

AI would much rather be curvy than super skinny! Bleh! Once I get between 160-180, I'll be happy. :) Curvy girls are way sexier, I think!

Glad to hear you're feeling better! This year has been terrible for colds!
