oooo Megan!!! I LOVE the ring holder!!!

Joe and I tried to convince ourselves it wasn't a cheat! Thanks for reassuring me! Mmmm your soup sounds good! I love how you can put seasonings as you want in it! Although I have to admit I like it much better fresh! So I've been getting up and making a new batch every morning, which was the VERY first think i did this morning after going to the bathroom!

I saw yesterday that there were quite a few linen suits for boys on ebay, a seller who has a tux store was selling them for only $25 each!! Thats for the jacket and pants!

You definitely can't have lighters! If you have a lighter w/ no fuel you might want to make sure tsa knows it doesn't have fuel, but if it smells like it they can take it.

I think tammy changed the number of posts required to change you from a noob to junior member (then allowing you to download) but in turn changed the number of posts needed to become a full member, senior member and so on! So ladies jump in and post away and participate and you'll change status in no time!

ok I'm on Day 4 and have TOO much energy!! I've been up since 6am just cleaning! I normally get up at 7 and get Cattie up, take Joe to work (I don't know what he does, but he uses more gas driving himself there and back than I do driving him there, then home, and going back again to pick him up and come home!) Then have breakfast, etc. I lost the .2lbs I gained yesterday but didn't work out cause once again I was on the go until 10:30pm! Then I went to bed and would almost get to sleep but not quite so i got up and cleaned our office until 1 am! I don't know that I could do this every week, but definitely once a month. Joey and I cheated a little yesterday and were dying for meat we had some veggie chix patties for lunch, it was a veggie day so we didn't feel like it was too bad, but a small cheat!

oooo YAY!!! You look so good!!! I LOVE these!!

Estella- i think gaining back depends on your normal eating habits. If this is completely different and you go back to normal of course you'll gain it back. The biggest difference for us is meat and carbonated drinks. We usually have meat everyday, so after this I may start substituting veggie burgers & veggie chix patties and hope that helps a little. We drink alot of Diet Pepsi, but during the summer we drink alot of tea so thats helpful. We do most of our shopping at the farmers market and generally eat very healthy so really the biggest thing for us is the meat and carbonated drinks we don't drink alcohol much so that doesn't really affect us. I think in order to keep it off is to really eat much healthier w/ LOTS of fresh fruits and veggies. I saw an episode on Oprah where they had people change for one week to eating 11lbs of food, but all of it was fresh fruits and veggies and they all lost 10+ lbs even though they had to eat 11lbs of food a day its just better for you, better nutrients, less calories, etc. oh Erika as soon as the crankiness starts i start eating, my problem is when i get up in the morning! I can't take eating right as i get up, but i just get up cranky.

I didn't have any of those issues. I know Erika said she was having like 4 bowel movements a day, but I finally had one today (3rd day) and i usually have at least 1 every day. I think I'm dehydrated! The biggest thing i've noticed is how pissy i get when i need something to eat or drink. I've never been this raging girl and I really am! It barely takes anything to set me off!

YAY erika! I kept seeing you had posted last on here but for some reason earlier wasn't showing your post! 9 lbs is GREAT! Joe has managed to lose 7 lbs over 2 days.... dumb men lose weight so easily!

Did all of you work out throughout the week as well?

ok i started this diet on friday. I really don't like tomatoes (but i do like fried green tomatoes & ketchup) and i HATE cooked green peppers so I cut them out of my soup. The tomatoes are probably really important, but i just can't take it, i tried for a day it didn't go well. although joe is doing this with me and I make him the regular soup. It's been going ok, although I've started my bloating PMS week today and I realized if I was just a little hungry I would turn into a raging bitch and now its even worse w/ PMS. Its actually kinda bothersome! I am really really patient w/ our daughter but since i started this I can't take anything from her!!! I've lost all patience! After the first day I lost 2.6 lbs and this morning (start of 3rd day) i gained .2lbs! I'm blaming that on bloating! I don't know if any of you felt this way, but the first day I was soooo weak and had no energy at all! Yesterday, the 2nd day, i couldn't sit down i was on the go from 9 am til 10:30pm, I stopped to eat but other than that i couldn't sit down. Today i finally feel back to normal.

I hope you have a great day!!!!! Happy birthday!

girls definitely definitely read updates from tammy (the owner of the forum) These include info w/ new rules and if not followed can lead to being banned!!! Here are the 2 new ones she did the other day, one including info on the rules of downloading: http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t44624 http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t44623

you'll be fine if its checked. If they think it looks suspicious they'll just open it and go through it.

ha i have the same issue, i can't ever convince myself that this is enough! the diet is only 1 week and if done correctly you're supposed to lose 10-17 lbs. so i think it would be good maybe the week before you leave! Ours is expensive cause there is 2 of us doing it!!!

the hardest part of this diet is making sure you eat really healthy afterwards you definitely can't go back and snack and have lots of treats, etc or you'll gain it all back. I think its mostly for a cleanse and not a weight loss diet. But supposedly if you do it right you should lose!

i bought a crystal one in silver for my sis but i'll look and see if maybe there are some gold ones. I sooo know about the money. I realized today that I leave in 1 month and 3 days and i still have a few thousand to pay.... ouch! joe and I started the sacred diet yesterday, already down 2.6 lbs but since both of us are doing it we already went through 2 watermelons, 4 mangos, a whole pot of soup just yesterday. today is veggies so i had to make more soup, and veggies to eat. I've spent $60 on food for this diet already and I'll probably only make it through tomorrow. Its an expensive diet! but so far its working so worth it I suppose but at this rate I'll spend over $200 for 1 week of diet food!!! And i bought most of our veggies at the farmers market so i got a better deal than the grocery store.

thats what i was gonna say, i think now you have to have 150 posts to download so maybe now you're a noob until you've reached 150 posts?

thanks savannah (ebay QUEEN!) Ya i just sent a message and told them how many i wanted and they set it up for me. I also ordered sashes from ebay and needed an odd number she didn't have listed and she gave me the amount i needed for cheaper than the listings. Always ask! I will dig up mine this evening and take some pics for you so you can see!

here's the seller i ordered from, the necklaces are nice and heavy. i've ordered lots of stuff from china, including my wedding dress! 925 sterling silver big starfish necklace A0107 - eBay (item 220441182609 end time Jun-27-09 00:12:33 PDT)

i bought mine from ebay from a seller in china I think i spent $7 each and they're great. I can't seem to find the seller i used

OMG i look like an idiot. Just can't do it! But Chris brown did the billie jean dance a few years back and shocked me! It was good. thought this was kinda interesting/funny Jackson dies, almost takes Internet with him - CNN.com

We are NOt serious at all!!!! Which is part of the reason I like having our cousin do it. Its one of the best days of our life and i'd much rather laugh through it, our personalities, than be serious which is SO not us. We'd probably laugh anyway at how serious the officiant would be anyway
