To happiness...and beyond!

I agree with the above! I miss you too......where'd you buggered off to lady?!?!

Hope things are still going fab missy :)
 
Hey Tik figured I better comment on your thread since you do on mine, get a bit overwhelmed by all the posts on here.

Sounds like you are going amazingly well, it must be awesome to have a personal trainer to help keep up the motivation, I could certainly use one. You are doing sooo much exercise and seeing results :) its so hard to keep up with studies, working out, eating healthy and regularly and all the other things going on in life.

Keep up the great work.
 
i havent stopped by in a couple weeks... sorry :( i got off the forum in general. lol and theres too many posts for me to catch up on right now.. can't get over how many ppl post on your thread! hahaha so popular. but i notice that you havent posted either in about a week. still motivated? i fell off the wagon a bit, planning to get back into it, though. lol

see that you have become a bit of a runner, moreso. that makes me SUPER happy!! i hope that you are starting to enjoy it more. :) hows the 5K training coming?
 
Dear Jill..you are being missed on the forum..where are you??..are the college assignments troubling you..send them over to me..can I help??..tk cr girlie..and hope to hear from you soon.
 
Aww! It feel so great to come back and see all these wonderful messages!! :) *happy flutter*

I'm sorry again for being absent! I am finding work and school a bit too much lately! I keep getting more and more piled on! The latest is being asked to mentor a few students while they prep for their thesis defenses! AHH! *pulls hair out* ... It is so time consuming (and hard to know when you're being too tough), to read a bunch of 60+ paged documents and comment! It's an honour for the school to think I'm knowledgeable enough to do this, but at the same time...I don't have the time!!!

On top of that, my stupid school society is piling the work on me...they don't think i'm "connected" enough with the society and should put more effort in...oo...ooooo.....I just wanted to get up and leave- but I'm determined to stick it out until I hear about scholarships!!! :cuss:

But school is winding down! The next three weeks are my big heavy loaded weeks, but I'm feeling good about it! April 15th is the last day- i have ALL my papers due then..and..and (I feel sick thinking about this)...it's when the giant federal scholarships are announced *cries* ... I applied this year, but I don't know if I'll get it! 1000's apply each year, and they only fund 16% of students! I really really really really REEEALLLY need it, but I can't be disappointed if I don't get it :smash: So I'm am all anxious about the 15th!!! eeep!

Life in other news, well, this week I heard from my ex. He emailed me (such a gentlemanly way to communicate!) ... he basically said :

-I f***ed up. I treated you wrong. You deserved better.
-Every day I think about you, and I feel sick in my stomach, because of what I did.
-I've gone on dates with several women since we broke up. None of them could hold a candle to you. you are by far the best girl I've ever met.
-I just want you to know that when I gave you up, I gave up the best thing that ever happened to me. I can't even imagine being happy again.
-I miss you, you're beautiful and special

ugh...this has given me so much trouble this week. I was almost mended and i had stopped thinking about him, and then this happens...bah! I haven't responded, and I don't plan to either. I'm done. I mean, it feels good that he's realized what happened, but it doesn't change the fact that he did those things to me...I believe people can change, but I also don't believe in an endless amount of chances...and he's had all I can give him...so to make myself feel better, I went out and bought myself some lovely makeup! It was wonderful! And then I went out and partied on Friday night with my gfs!! It was great!

I feel different now when I think of him...sad, and I miss it a bit...but brighter...if that makes sense :)

My weight loss is going good! I broke the 180's this weekend!! *happy dance*!! Weeee! I'm very proud of my training! I was able to beat my plank holding record on Friday - 2 min and 14 seconds!!!!! I was so happy! And it was at the end of my core session too!!! I think if I did it at the start, i could bust that time away!! *skips* weeeee!! I haven't ran in awhile, but I have biked. I was able to bike 5 miles in 19minutes the other day, which makes me proud! And I'm going to get back to running this week! My last time improved substantially, and now I want to work on running for 20 minutes straight! I think I can do it!! yippee!!!! :) :)

Well I am off to prowl your journals!! It's good to be back! I know I'm busy, but I have to make a real effort to get on here! you guys help me out so much :)
 
Check you out!! You're doing so faaabulous......congrats on getting into the 180s :hurray: that's great!!!

Sorry to hear you're having such a shit time with school, I think it piles on everyone at this time of year! Ah just think of how awesome it will be when summer arrives, a good few months off! Roll on April for you! :) I finish May 10th and cannot wait! Do you have any plans for over the summer?

At least if you disappear again we all know not to worry :lol: .....you're just being drowned in sheets of paper - nothing we should be concerned with, haha!
 
Good Morning, Tik
Life can get in the way of so much sometimes. It is great to see you not letting it get in the way of your weightloss. 180's? That is awesome!! I am so proud of you!!

I know about the school thing- I have two kids in University. One is in Education the other in Law School so they are looking forward to the end of the term too. I hope you get the scholarships you applied for- I know how expensive school is and every little bit helps.

Why do exes always pop up when you don't want them too. I think you have the right idea about him. Remember he is an 'ex' for a reason. You probably don't need the drama or the crap that comes along with it. Sounds to me like you know what you want and what you don't want.

How do you like this new person that you have become? I don't know about you but if I was as stressed as you are and had all this stuff heaped on me- I would be eating a chocolate cake or two. At least the old me would have-lol. Isn't it nice to know that no matter what you are going through you don't have to add the guilt of overeating on top of the other stress? Again, I am really proud of how you are handling all this stuff. You can do this!! It is nice to see you back!! Good luck on the next three weeks- it sounds like you are going to be busy!! Take care.
 
Just thought I'd pop by and have a nose about, well done on the break through into the 180s, and good luck on getting the scholarship
 
:hurray: 180s is FANTASTIC!!!

I'm glad to hear that you plan to ignore the ex's message. You deserve SO MUCH better than him! The right guy is out there waiting for you, and he'll treat you the way you deserve to be treated - unlike your loser ex!

Stay strong during this crazy next few weeks/months - It won't last forever. I'm so proud of you for sticking to your guns thru all the stress lately! You can do this!!!
 
Jill, you're doing great...you are strong. You are focused and determined on your education, exercise, and nutrition. Keep up the good work. As for the elements of your past popping (or pooping) up, sometimes you just have to know when to let go for your own good. Sounds like you have come to that point. Congratulations for your insight and strength.
 
Congrats on the weight-loss!!! 180s, woohoo!!!

I agree with what others have said- there's someone out there that will treat you with the respect and love you deserve. It shows you have great personal strength to not let it affect you- and well done on getting out and partying! You don't need someone elses drama bringing you down!
 
im so glad to see that you are back.... and 20 pounds lighter!! wahoo!! awesome job. and to do it when you are so busy with school is defintiely something to be proud of.

i just want to say... boys are stupid. they have a way of getting in there and messing with our brains. you seem to be holding strong, knowing what is healthy for you right now. :)

annnnd... last thing... 2 min, 14 sec plank.... *applauds* haha that is a strong core girlie. haha you probably have a rocking six pack that is ready to show. lol keep it up. :)
 
Awww firstly I want to say it's great to see youback on here!!!! I love this site and the motivation everyone gives me but man it's time consuming and sounds like you've had awhile lot going on over there!!!

Secondly massive congrats on breaking the 180's and staying so focussed on your goals despite what's been going on!! Stress kills my diet attempts!
 
Arghhhhhhhhhh my I phone was being crap and wouldn't let me write more sohad to start a second message to you..

Anyway..... OMG way to go on plank and bike time, that is amazing!!!!

Finally I am with you everyone deserves a second chance - NOBODY deserves 4 or 5!!!! I think your doing the right thing completely with the ex. But I always enjoy knowing mine realise what a mistake they made!!! Enjoy feeling fab about it!!!

I hope the next few weeks fly by for you

xx
 
Hey, great job with the plank! Wow! And breaking into the 180's.... :cheers2: Keep it up, girlie!

And about the ex.... It's up to you what you do, but I think you already know how he's gonna make you feel if you two start speaking again.... crappy!
