Oh no that's terrible! I'm sorry you were in the hospital its not fun! For me it was a medical error that put me in the hospital in the first place. I had my wisdom teeth removed, and the dentist prescribed a really strong antibiotic. It shouldn't have been prescribed in the first place because it comes with like a 90% chance that it will cause C Difficile, its a superbug that totally destroys your colon and in some people its fatal (*side note but a lady here in Vancouver died in February from this at the same hospital I was at). Anyways, it wasn't fun and with all the morphine I was on + tests + medicine etc... I don't even want to think about what it would have cost. I'm glad that you're feeling better though...I think stomach issues are the worst.

One thing however that i did was change my diet a little. I pretty much cut out bread and no more ice cream! Once i did that i lost 8 pounds! I still want to loose a couple but i'm stuck again, mainly i just want to tone. be patient and don't eat ice cream and it will work! yea I've changed the way I eat too, and WHAT I eat. Now I eat almost constantly little bit by little bit but I eat alot of fruits and veggies and rice based snacks, soy etc... When I first went away to university I gained 30lbs :S I went from 120lbs to 150lbs in about a month!..lol About two years after that I hired a nutritionist, and a personal trainer. Within 4 months I was back to my original weight and felt awesome. Then I met Michael and moved to Vancouver and somehow I got a bit off track. I gained 10lbs back so that's what I'm looking to lose. Maybe I'll post the nutrition plan plus all the recipes that the nutritionist gave me...it might help. Anyways, I know this will all work in the end but I like instant gratification and unfortunately this doesn't really work that way. Back at the beginning of December I was hospitalized with a bad gastrointestinal infection, and while there I lost the weight in the blink of an eye, morphine and only IV for food I guess will do it. But it didn't stick, as soon as I was back on solid food it all came back

I feel the "legal" marriage and the ceremony are performed the same day. Thanks for the help, I'll contact padre Juvencio then. no unfortunately there's no way, unless you have a minister do it, but definatley not a Catholic Priest. You can always do the legal marriage the night before the religious one. Let me know how it goes.

I realized after I posted that the post was from a while back I'm glad that you had everything resolved though!
  5. ran for 6km, sprints, and walked up 24 flights of stairs. The stairs weren't on purpose haha! when we got home the fire alarm had gone off, the elevators weren't working and the concierge didn't know how to turn them on again (i think he's new)....either way it was a good workout...my legs feel like they weigh 500lbs though
  6. Bobbi Brown foundation oil free compact and loose powder are good
  7. Thanks for that! I love the article, its inspirational and informative. Sometimes I need those little reminders. I got super discouraged yesterday after the gym. I've been eating well and working out pretty hard for the past month and I have yet to see any significant results. The thing is I've always been active and now I just sort of uped the intensity. But my body is happy with the 132lbs it has so its hanging on for deal life and not wanting to let go of any fat stores. I think I need to remember too that for the first month or so there isn't much of a change because your body is in shock and doesn't know what to do. Its just nice to read it though and be validated that if I keep it up I'll eventually be the weight and shape that I want. Thanks again!
  8. That's awesome! I've never tried the pilates on the machines either...only the Windsor Pilates on dvd

One good thing is that the $$$ we're spending on our wedding is our money - we're not going into debt for this celebration! So far, we haven't had to skimp on anything that we thought was crucial for our wedding to be spectacular. Of course, we also only have 8 guests, so that helps keep OOT bag and reception costs down! That's awesome! Its huge to not need to go into debt for the wedding, that's what Michael and I wanted too. I feel really lucky that my parents are able to pay for most of it so hopefully we won't have to spend too much. We're moving across the country in September too and so far that's going to cost us about $8000 ugh...i'm getting freaked just thinking about it...so much to worry about!
  12. I posted these on another thread already. But I love them sooo much
  13. WOOO I like the tangerine! its sooo pretty! then its a bit deeper than normal orange but still in the same color family
  14. I didn't even know that you had all those options!!!! wohoo! I've been trying to figure out how to change my name to my "actual" name...lol! boy do I feel stupid.
  15. I'm sure that you look beautiful. I had a similar feeling when I bought mine too so I can relate. I tried it on and LOVED it, then I saw the cameraphone pics my MOH took and I thought I looked horrible and huge. I hated how my body looked in it. But everyone re-assured me it was the pics and in real life it didn't look like that. I think that when you see a picture you sometime focus in on a specific area and you don't take in the whole image. Its more than just about the dress, its about you and your personality and your face etc... when all those are combined you look different than you think. And maybe it was just a bad pic from a bad angle. Don't stress! YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED YEY!! and you're going to look gorgeous!
  16. lol thanks I originally bought it for Minggis but he hated it! He would growl and hiss at it...ugh it was terrible. But she loved it right from the very start, maybe because its girly and she's a girl. Either way now the boy kitten loves it too, its funny when they're both on there snugglig together.
