And - this was the key for me - you eat them with your hands. The activity alone satisfied a lot of that "hand-to-mouth" thing that just kills me. Can't wait to try the salsa with the veggies!! I don't suppose swapping the salsa for guacamole counts? You get a MOOO to if you feel fat then the FCC is for you

My dress isn't even the slightest revealing anyway and I still feel like I look bad! My dress has a full back because my DDD's need some support! There is no way in hell I was going to go strapless!my dress is strapless and I am a 36DDD Do you think I've done anything about it? HELL NO! What is my excuse for not getting on the treadmill...I need new tennis shoes.HERE HERE I cant walk with a 5 year old I am going to go out tomorrow and buy me some! Come on girls! We can do this together! I know - it is SO hard being in a rut but I think we can motivate eachother and have some good laughs at the same time! We don't have to be "fat cows", we can be "busty beauvine's" (is that how you spell it??) not all of us are busty

I mean each breast cannot weigh 17 pounds! I'm working out and watching what I eat. I've had great success with Free Diet Plans at SparkPeople to really become aware of what I'm eating. I'm down 10 pounds so if I can do it , so can you! Checking them out right now. I was told my twins weigh about 15lbs. But I like my girls that is the one thing that I would love to keep

Quote: Originally Posted by gkashmira MOOOOOOOOOOOOO.... My other big secret is to add a HUGE (and I mean HUGE) salad onto my meals so that way I feel really full! My classic lunch salad is: mixed green steamed broccoli egg whites green onions 1/4 c. kidney beans (this is the only item int eh salad where you need to what the amount) hearts of palm peppercinis (I have no idea how to spell this) green beans cherry tomatoes tons and tons of balsamic vinegar The whole salad is like 1 WW point... aka no fat, very few calories and lot of fiber! I love salad. I do tuna on my salad. this week I made chili for the cold weather and put that onto the salad. How many points was that. No dressing Quote: Originally Posted by LadyCheese WOW I need to make that salad and its only 1 pt!! Thanks for sharing right i can do salad allllll day everyday but my IBS does allow that. After day 3 or tooo much salad you may not want to be down wind from me TMI but funny. Quote: Originally Posted by Yari May I join the moo club? MOOOOOO MOOOOO, I too am a fat cow.

Quote: Originally Posted by LadyCheese Hi, my name is Jessica and I'm a Fat Cow. I keep going on diets and then I fall off the wagon two weeks later, thats where I'm at now...so this wknd I will start eating better and working out. I used to be thin when Fi & I met then after I had our daughter, all hell broke loose. girl you get a MOO MOO. I was the same way until children. 6 pack perky bossoms tina turner legs and the 35 + gravity + fhildren = MOOOOOOO. I want that again. I just need to get active i think.

You ladies make me feel better. I love the healthy eating ideas. It is what i need because we have a corner store at work and if i dont pack my lunch i usually get the 50cent chocolate donut or chips. i have been good with water. i drink at least 2 bottles at work and crystal light at home. it is mostly the weekends that put me over the edge. I love the different snacks like the salsa and carrots. i dont get to get to the gym and I wish I could. when the weather breaks I have a track around the corner that I can walk and Amir ride his bike on. I am glad I am not the only fat cow. CAN I GET A MOO

I feel so fat. I believe that I am an emotional eater . I find that I eat when I bored. I eat when I am lonely, upset, tired and want to stay awake and most importantly if I know that I will enjoy it and its here. I have tried healthy snacks but it works the same. But I eat because I want to eat. Now I am 5'5" and I weigh about 165lb. I am very top heavy 36DDD with a 31in waist. I would love to get down to 130 but will settle 145. I will start a new eating regiment on a monday and do good all week. Then the weekend it is over. I AM A FAT COW Any words of wisdom on how to beat the gorging

I like the wording of the first one and the spacing of the 2nd.

I am so happy for you God does answer prayers

I agree that the original message is written in a not very nice tone and should have been phrased more as a question. And I am happy we are an honest bunch of ladies (and gentlemen), so I guess that's why I thought I should post my opinion as well... P.S. I happen to love your dancing sig and I happen to love all our sigs (including my own!)! No offense taken. that is the point I am trying to make. If she had concerns then ask about it dont voice an opinion in a rude manner and not expect grown men and women not to reply. We are emotional people and that is why this forum is so close and after you get married you continue to stay because you build friendships and bonds that go past BDW (sorry Hostess) but we care and share on this forum and that is why our significants dont understand when we are on here we are family. We are protective of our families and Tammi is our Host/Mother. She set the rules and if you dont like the rules then OH WELL

Those are really nice good job

Quote: Originally Posted by gkashmira I just wanted to throw my 2-cents in (why do I always have to spout off my big mouth and get myself in trouble?). But I wanted to come to Sunbride's defense! If someone doesn't know that they can turn off the siggy's and happens to have a very slow internet connection/dial-up etc. than it would seem to be a reasonable question. However I am sure she now knows that she can shut them off using her account. But I do feel bad that she might not come back because of this thread. The truth of the matter is that there are lots of wonderful people and lots of great info on this forum (yay - us!) and I hate the idea that there is someone out there thinking we're a bunch of b*tches We're nice, I swear it! **Sorry, you guys know I love you and I hope I didn't hurt anyone's feelings. that is why I said what I said. But the way it was before TammyB changed it was offensive. Also in the defense of EVERYONE typing a message may read offensive when someone may not be trying to be. However dont try and make me feel bad with comments like " I personally find it annoying that this site allows people to post really large signatures, like huge pictures along with all the other stuff (tickers etc). I think you should reduce the size of pictures people are allowed to post. There are some people who use really large pictures, and when they are posting several times in the same thread, the thread gets taken over by their pictures, not the information, which is what we all come here for." and not expect us to give it back. Like family we are going to disagree but it how we agree to disagree that makes us family. There is a way to voice your opinion. I personally was offended when i read this and as you can see I asked if my siggy was offensive. So we are just commenting on the statement that was given to us. WE ARE A HONEST BUNCH AND THAT IS WHY I L0VE BDW

I would just add them

JM then you will understand how you are a WINNER. Sunbride, Have do you understand now and why we post pictures at the bottom? If it is annoying to you then remove them. But it is not fair of you to come on here and demand that the majority conform to you the minority. We have not made these comments to be mean or demeaning but we would like to hear how you feel about what we said. R U here?

Quote: Originally Posted by amandalovesryan i love your dancing skills! i would have a pic up on mine if only i could find one that i love enough! IF it was/is that annoying I can change it. I makes me no never mind. I like it. I think it says something about me as a person and that is the whole idea. To show who you are so that we become familiar with the people that we converse with more than our own families.

Quote: Originally Posted by Morgan Well said! And from the lady with possibly the craziest siggy pic of them all. Are my pictures that large or too much. lol My host likes it.

This is not your average forum. this forum gives and abundance of information but you make friends as well. Your other forums you post your question and maybe 24 hours later you get a reply. But here you get a reply almost instantly. As you can tell by your post that we talk about more than just wedding because sometimes you need to talk about other things so that the hustle and bustle of wedding planning doesnt take over your life. You can turn the signatures off if you wish but I personally enjoy seeing the lives of the woman I have grown to know and become friends with.

I vote Easter and 25 max. It was hard to stay on the limit this time because gift cards are in 25 amounts

Oh how sweet, but how shameless of you to flirt with Mickey with him there LOL congratulations

Our house was brand new when we bought it, and we had no choices on counters, or cabinets so the feel of the house doesn't really lend itself to antiques...which, bums me out. Also, DH and I have slightly different tastes in decorating......for example, beside the antiques I had a red velvet couch before we moved in together...I loved that couch! Your room is larger than my house. lol you wilil not see any pictures of my house because I really want to burn it down and collect the insurance money and start over hehehe. I have out grown it and now that there are 3 it is too small.
