Starting Over

It's great that you are becoming more independent yourself. A woman must learn to be alone before she can truly be comfortable with someone else. This way you know you are there for the right reasons and that you don't have to stay if you don't want to.

:iagree: It took me a while! But hell, some women NEVER learn, versus my 4-5 month struggle to feel comfortable, so I say, no bad!!

So sorry you have a cold *hands an aloe-saturated tissue* Relax and feel better soon!!! :D
 
Having a nasty head cold when you have tons of work to do sucks ass. I hope you kick it to the curb soon.

That's great that the gala went well! You can't beat great food and an open bar. :D :party:

If you do ever come up here to visit your rellies, let me know, and i'll meet up with ya somewhere. Ann Arbor is a very cool city. We'd have blast. Or you could come further West to my neck of the woods and we could be beach bums on Lake Michigan for a few days. :D
 
FINALLY got the call back from my doc. I go in first thing in the morning to do blood work and he will then give me the proper dose of this new med Armour. I have read rave reviews of this drug from others that were on Synthroid but had to change due to the same problems.

This could not come at a better time. I am reaching that point of hopelessness AGAIN. The past year and three months has been so hard. I've tried everything from cycling calories to low carb and increasing the intensity of each workout, but to no avail. At this point I no longer care as much about how much weight I lose, I just want to fell BETTER. I no longer want to feel moody, forgetful, tired all the time, and I want my damn hair to stop falling out! My whole life is suffering because of this and I just want to feel like my old self again.

This WLF is the only thing that has kept me sane the past year. Thanks.
 
Well, you've been there for us in your wisdom and compassion :hug2: I'm sorry this is happening to you. *wispers "try going raw"*

But I hope the med will help you! With a baby and a family to look after, you seriously need your energy back!!!

Excuuuuuuuse me?!?!?! The ONLY thing keeping you sane?! Psh. I see how you are!
I hope the meds make a huge difference for you. I also hope that you hand that dumbass doctor his balls, stuffed into a "synthroid" bottle. The idiot.
Feel better soon...I probably haven't told you this, but the way you've been sticking to your guns this past year has really been motivational to me. I'm so glad we kept each other after the divorce!!!
Now stop picturing me naked and go do something productive!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D
 
Fingers crossed that this Amour will work hun :). You've really struggled and I truly hope this is the answer you've been looking for.

Luv, C
 
My mom's been taking synthroid for years. I don't know if it's affected her ability to lose weight, though, because she hasn't tried...lol. I shouldn't laugh, it's sad.

I hope the Armour does the trick. I'm sorry you've had such a rough year, honey. Hopefully 2008 will be a temendous improvement.

LOL@you being unproductive b/c you're too busy picturing Krystal nekkid. And here I thought it was me that was distracting you. :cry: :biggrinjester:

Happy TLD! *soaping up yer boobies* b/c I said last week you were first in line--and you are. I haven't soaped up any other boobs today. :biggrinjester:

Wow, how did you know that at EXACTLY 7:24 p.m. yesterday that I was picturing you nekkid? Yes, yes, you too have kept me sane this past year. You have also kept me from killing my H on multiple occasions. Lol!!

I'm glad my stubbornness has been motivating to you. My stubborn pride has kept me on track with this. I REFUSE to stay overweight. Plus, my ass is WAY cuter when it's a size 6 rather than a size 10. Ha!

You see, I was picturing YOU nekkid at 7:25 p.m. yesterday. I have to schedule the fantasies since there's so many of you hot WLF bitches!

Happy late TLD! Thanks for the scrubbin'!

Fingers crossed that this Amour will work hun . You've really struggled and I truly hope this is the answer you've been looking for.

Luv, C

I am trying not to get my hopes up with this, but the doc seems to think this will definitely work this time. I REALLY hope so!!

I have confidence it will be. Stubborn = good IMO (Leo speaking here)

Me too! Best wishes :hug2:

You naughty girls! ha ha

Amy, we are in the same boat. I'm around a low size 10 but I look 100% better in a 6 as well. Me being a shorty and all. We WILL get there somehow.

Hoping this message finds you well sweetheart :). Kisses to Bella.
 
Hello all!! Happy f###ing Monday!!!!

Today I am SWAMPED with Kids Canstruction stuff. The event officially starts this Saturday and ends 2/15 so I have tons of stuff to do today. I am super nervous about it. The regular Canstruction is a nationwide event and the entries are adults from architecture/engineering firms. This is the first "kids" event in the U.S. and I am the chairperson for it. It if turns out good or BAD, my name is all over it. If it goes badly, it could hurt my career and I am soooo stressed about it. I dream about the damn thing!

Anyways, I will probably be out of pocket for most of this week. I'll be dropping in to post accomplishments for the challenge and check on everybody's diary. I am still exercising my ass off and eating healthy. Last week was a "refeed" period, I wanted to start fresh with this new medication that I am starting this week. So, back down to 1500-1700 calories/day and tons of exercise. Bah!!
 
Thank you! I really appreciate your support. It's nice to know others have faith in you even when you don't.
 
Okay, short break from KC!

People who know me well know that I approach life and all my endeavors with a fiery passion. That's just who I am and I am proud of that. I have been told by others that I am very intimidating at first due to my strong personality but once they get to know me they find that I am a great person and a very loyal friend. I have never been shy and will NEVER back down to anybody, no matter what. This will probably get my ass kicked one of these days but oh well, it hasn't happened yet. I have never been timid or fearful about anything except when it comes to myself. I always fear that I will be incapable of something that I set out to do. I am afraid of failure and I think this is due to pure stubborn pride. I know this but it's what keeps me going, I'm a survivor. I have many demons but I refuse to let them beat me.

I am posting this due to an interview I just listened to on indie1031.com between actor Gary Oldman and Jonesy. I am a huge lover of the arts therefore I am a huge fan of Oldman. He, in my book, is the most talented actor/director/musicians I have ever come across. He rarely gives interviews so I had to listen to this one. He discussed Heath Ledger and the friendship they formed while filming The Dark Knight (Batman) last summer. I always hate to hear of someone so young dying, especially from such things as substance abuse. It also makes me question myself and whether I am doing what I was put on this planet for. There are so many things I want to do in my lifetime. So many that I'll have to live to 100 just to accomplish all of them. I would love to just be content with everything but I'm not. This is where passionate Amy comes in :).

The station played a song in memory of Heath that I found very moving. It's called "Pass Me Over" by Anthony Hamilton. If you get a chance, try to listen to it sometime, the man has a phenomenal voice. It's a very spiritual song. I am a spiritual person, although I do not believe you have to go to church or preach constantly to be so. I believe in doing good and helping others, just being okay with the kind of person I am.

Anyways, I am in a weird mood right now. Music moves me and has been a very good friend in the roughest of times. The way some people are about good wine, good food, etc., I am this way with a good song, a good book or beautiful art. They are my own personal "substance".
 
I have no doubts that KC event will be a great success. No worries, girl. You work way too hard for it to be anything less.

So did Heath Ledger commit suicide? The last I heard, it was accidental. But haven't heard anything official. I feel so bad for his little girl. How sad all around. He was a talented actor, and a decent person from what I know.
 
Hey there Pretty Phenom,

dropping in to give you a bit of a pick-me-up. (If I could email you a good goosing I would.. hahaa!) However, I'm sure the Kids Canstruction project will be a huge success.. afterall, you're fackin' running the show. It'll go just fine, dollface... so don't you go worrying all too much.


As for the Amour.. damn, I hope that'll kick shit into gear. And yes... we bitches need to try to plan a WLF get together when it's warmer... but not too warm, because sweaty boobies can be a problem. hahaaa! Love yas, you perfectionist you. :hug2:

Ain't life a bitch? I somehow have GAINED 5lbs the past few days!!!! I have been drinking tons of water so I don't think it's water retention. I wonder if the "refeed" made me gain it back? I never went over 2500 calories/day and worked my ass off with the exercise. This is sooo damn frustrating. I work my ass off, eat super healthy and I fucking gain weight. I think the doctor jinxed me last week when he said he was surprised I haven't gained weight since my thyroid doesn't seem to be working at all. WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!! The fucker had better be right about this T3 shit or I'm going to fucking lose my mind!!
 
has there been any changes measurements wise?

eating at maintenance or close to it can cause a little bit of weight gain in people -but it shouldn't stay on long...

dont' stress over it pretty lady :)
