T2: Truer words have rarely been spoken before

Don't let anyone kid you, even the strongest have weak moments.

Keep up the fantastic work,
And in fact Ive decided to give us some extra motivation. You and I are the same weight - ill race you to 200lb :)

You keen? We can have prizes, maybe the loser has to send something to the loser or vice versa. or just even gloating rights :)
 
Thanks for worrying about me ;)

This is what friends do :)

I did read up on the 'fat bitch' story and those never turn out in a good way emotionally. I think most members here can relate to a story similar to our own whether we like it or not. It looks like all the love and support rallied behind you and helped you get back on track.

Sadly, we obese people are easy targets for society and we'll never fall under any of the countless discrimination laws short of losing the weight ourselves. I like to think some take the sting of an event like that and channel it towards getting the last laugh - hell, I'm not above getting the last laugh and I'd take my skinny ass back there a year later and give her a "yo bitch, look at me now". Just look at her face because she'll show you what stupid looks like.

Hello T2,
Just popping in to say hello. Congrats on getting 2
miles in tho thats good! Do ya have a walking buddy? Between
my dog or a family member that helps alot some1 to talk to well
my dog doesn't carry a good conversation but he listens lol!
Have a gr8 day Tammy:)

Good morning Tammy :)

No walking buddies here and that's ok with me. I started walking with music and have everyday. I'd be lost without it and probably less motivated as well. I talk to enough people online to satisfy my conversation levels.

My walking time is my most precious thinking time. I get so deep in thought at times, I can miss a whole song only letting the rythym push my legs and not even hearing the lyrics. I can't begin to tell you how much the thinking process on my walks have played a major role in my lifestyle change.

Hi. I just wanted to say that yours was the first diary I read when I started mine the other day. An amazing accomplishment already with what you have done, thanks for convincing me I can take control again and for the encouragement all your hard work has given me.

Lisa

Thank you Lisa, that's a mighty high compliment you paid me and I hope it comes back to you in spades.

I did read your diary and like so many others on here, you reassured me that I have it so much easier compared to you. I have so little in the way of organized chaos like carrying for 5 children and holding a full time job and being a housewife and a taxi driver and..... well you get the point.

With that being said, if you want control, it's yours for the taking. To me an amazing accomplishment is living in your world and dealing with your full plate of all the above-mentioned. As strong as you must be to pull off the family aspects, I hope you do find time and strength to treat yourself to the goals you've set in front of yourself.

Hey T2, just stopping by to check in on ya...you're looking awfully handsome in the avatar! Me LIKES! :D

*severe blushage* Mental note: *it's always the married ones that do this to me*

Almost 8 months without pizza, I better get something back for all this torture. Maybe it's working eh.

*\o/* OHD *\o/*
 
hey there trucker.......just checkin in on ya.........looks like its all good!!!!! take it easy cheesy!!!!! STAR

Hi Star !! Well I see you're upright and functional so you must be feeling better eh ?? I sure hope so. I need to swing on by your diary and get the latest details of your badass cowgirl self and all things current.

Peace Sister Rocker.

Race ?? oh hell no !! I did a challenge on here last July and I did it all so wrong. The proof lies within my pics in the B&A section.

You look at today's avatar and compare it to my July and August picture and you'd think I gained 20 lbs. Not the case tho. I weigh about 15 lbs less in the current av as compared to July but the appearance difference is because I was really shreading myself calorie-wise and doing massive walking during 90 degree weather.

Currently I'm eating a few more cals and even tho I still walk about the same (if not more) I don't sweat hardly at all because I'm pretty use to the walks and our fall/winter season is here so the cooler temps aren't much help for shedding pounds either. You're heading into your summer, right ??

I did my major blast this year once and really all I'm up for now is slow control and working on my waistline. I appreciate the offer tho.

Speaking of av's, when is your new one coming out ?? *hint hint*

You have one of those av's that just drives me nuts !! You have to better looking than the pick-up truck so ummm let's ditch the PU and see you !! :)

I hope you picked up your protein levels, that's serious business and not an area to toy with.

I hope the stress levels in life don't get the best of you. I know, easier said than done but jobs and careers are just a way of making money and nothing more. Don't let it bother you after you punch the clock, just get out there and do things that make you happy. That would totally inspire me to see you shake that demon and I'll bet you'll eat better if ya do ;)
 
No pics, well I hope there were no pics....

Your diary has become huge. You give so much, it just keeps coming back around. It just makes me feel good reading what you write to everyone.

Who needs therapy when they have T2 around?

So you really don't know if any pics exist, I'll cling to my hopes there is.

As far as my diary goes, I feel like lounge piano player -----> *points at the tip jar*
 
*tosses in a dollar**

Sound like your being your feisty self Trucker.

Just wondering, I keep hearing you mention an old challenge...did something happen? Your not really looking back w/ fond memories, lol. I personally was so challenge driven, but lately I'm realizing, its really just stressing me out! I don't think I'll do another one for a while.

*gives a wink and smile from the keyboards*

Ugh, the July challenge. I lost 12 lbs. in 14 days (I think it was 14) - stoopid of me. I drained myself totally. Walking twice a day with plastics on usually when it was 80 degrees or higher out, eating very little. I was crunching down for a family reunion anyhow so I went the extra mile for the challenge too.

I'll never be that foolish again - never. I can see the motivational aspect of challenges but I didn't administer the 'fun' part. Bad move.

Me? Married? Nope...that ship sailed, I'm just a single mother contemplating becoming a nun. :p

Have a great one!

*scribbles in notebook that sit beside my computer 'OHD is single'*

*looks up in the Rogue Svengali Handbook under the chapter pertaining to single women on the internet*

*reads*

*gasp*

*grins*

*scowls at the prospect of OHD becoming a nun*
 
Howdy Toots! Just droppin by to see how you're doing. It's rainy and dark and icky here today.. bleh. But the walking must go on! (lol.. i typoed odd for on - it's it's going to be that kind of day) I'm not worried about the rude lady, very used to the fat bitch stuff. The way I figure small insult = small mind. But really worried me is that dog - they are less than two blocks from an elementary school and there are plenty of kids walking home. :eek: Debating whether or not I should file a complaint for that reason.

Anyway - have a super duper day!! :D:D:D
 
But the walking must go on!

We're in total agreeance.

The complaint part - meh, 'life's too short' comes to mind - that's just me tho.

Oh yeah, the yucky weather thing. I just wrapped up a 2 miler knowning we're gonna get hit here soon so I took full advantage of the sunny and reasonably warm noon walk.

I gotta go to the dentist for the second time today. They finished the cleaning phase this morn, now starts the restorative stuff. Fun fun fun. At least this being on the cancellation list deal is moving things along nicely, if I had to wait for scheduled appointments it would take about 38 years I think.

ouch! yea, i can understand that ruining the fun :eek:
 
Probably skip the complaint - your right life's too short.

Have fun at the dentist!! lol.. I still haven't gotten my list from insurance. Cancellation lists rock!.. When do we get pictures of the sexy new smile?? ;)
 
haha, after I graduate from smiling school :D

All I know is I did the impressions last Friday, how long it takes to get them made is another story. They do them in-house so maybe it won't be too long *shrugs*
 
Hey, stopping by to get in a "hi" before I leave for a week. I think of all the diaries I read, I'll miss yours the most.
And I agree with OHD on the avi...and I'm single...
Have a great week if I don't "see" ya.

....
You're heading into your summer, right ??

Awww chicken!

Yeah we're in summer here nearly - but its not that different to winter here - maybe a little less rain :)
Where I live its normally 15-25C and never more or less (unless its extreme weather). Down the other end of the islands it gets much colder in winter i think, they get snow (Ive seen snow like once or twice in my life ... and never in Auckland!)

As for the AV i do think about changing it - but the orange is so easy to pickout on a page :D

Okay there ya goes! Hows that?
 
Hey there handsome:)
Stopping by to say hey...."HEY"!! Hope your
day is going well! Gotta go get the little ones they
are at war "again":rolleyes: !! Tammy
