Hey guys, do any of you know how to post picks? I don't know if it's suposed to be an attachment, in the post or what. It seems like others can post lots of picks, but I tried to attach two and when I added the third, it kicked the other two off. So I don't think I was doing it right. I want to post in the before after and inbetween section.. Any idea's?
No clue!! Normally [IMG]insert web address here[/IMG] displays images or [IMAGE]insert web address here [/IMAGE] is supposed to do the trick, but I tried that with two pictures yesterday and it just showed links. Maybe they disabled this feature for everywhere but the "before, after, and in between section" so maybe you can try it there and see if it works.
Well guys I woke a little late this morning and got to the gym by 6:50 so I could only stay for 30 minutes, but it was okay. Hopefully tomorrow I will wake on time. Also I do not know if my body is making up for lost time or what but I am eating like 5 times a day its crazy!! Last week and the week before that I was barely eating. I am trying to keep it as healthy as I can. Today I was attacking strawberries but I messed up late in the day when I was working overtime and ate some junk. I'm going to try to get some other things at the supermarket so I don't so that again!!
nite all i am pooped

I'm right there with you. I made a lot of bad mistakes with boyfriends and such growing up. Even one that about 2 years ago was arrested for kidnapping some girl in NY and taking her to Mexico or something horrible. not when he was with me though, thank god >.<!! But my parents were very VERY strict after my boyfriend at 17, whom i found out was a theft and was into drugs... i swear i had no idea for the 6 months we were together, and when i found out he was gone. But yes i have made bad choices. So when i was 19 i met my husband. I live in one state, my parents in another. I didn't tell my parents about him for almost a year. Back of my mind i was trying to figure out what was wrong with him since my parents would. But at my 21st birthday my parents came to visit.. surprise >.< and they met him. Actually they liked him, my dad more than my mom. Turns out he asked my dad if he could marry me when they were down here, then he propsed about a year later.
Anyway nice to have parents watching your back... wish i would have listened to the first dozen men that came in and out of my life. My parents were right about allll of them, and they were right about my man now. I guess parent sjust know things.. okay that's kinda scarey to think. lol
Bok store? I'd love to own one!! I'm a book worm, i just started getting into some kinda twisted serial killer kinda books... okay sounds bad, but really it's very edge of your seat kinda stuff.. and almost like watching a horror movie in my mind LOL
Hope all went well!!!
Thanks Emi,
I appreciate your words and your kindness. And I definity understand your story about men. I am talking to a new guy, but asked only to be his friends. I am going to stay single for a while, u know
I think it would be better for me...
Anyway thanks again
and I do appreciate the parents... they just seem to get guys more than me lmao

ok, so im back after my weekend... I dont seem to have done too much damage... the only indulgence i had was drinking and boy was that good mmmhm. I had lots of water and special k meal bars... and the guy i was with got food to eat at mcdonalds... but i was fussy and drove all over milwaukee (quite literally) until i could settle on something. Which turned out to be a lunchable and choco milk and yougurt covered raisins from walgreens... oh man what an adventure. We walked all around too... it was a LOVELY lovely time.
but when i got home there was leftover pizza, i had a slice...and fruit snacks... and then when i got home to school, i kinda munched on my chips (corn chips... not flavor blasted chips) and dip, and more yogurt raisins.. not detremental, but not good either.
all and all i think i did really well.
glad to hear everyone is doing well as well : ) keep up the good work.

Dreamer2015, I'm glade your back! And didn't mess yourself up to badly!
Kevi, Yeah your just a loner, no one runs and no one plays basketball!lol.. Acutally you're very lucky! I'm sure we all can't wait to get where you allready are!!!
nataliejo, just hang in there, your doing it!
Pink, Thanks hon... How are you doing with your new Gym rutine?
KunoichiEmi,
"My parents were right about allll of them, and they were right about my man now. I guess parent sjust know things.. okay that's kinda scarey to think. lol "
I am so one of those scary parents, lol.. I am allways right, and my teens know it (thank GOD), and they actually listen.I got them trained in middle school, and I would tell them, watch out for this friend, I feel this is going to happen with her... Bla bla bla.... Now, my oldest who is in high school, just listens to me, and waits , and see's that I'm right agian. I think it is totaly a parent thing, if your trying to stay 2,5,10 steps ahead of your child, and that is something you focus on, I think it just comes naturaly... Or maybe I have a gift, lol...

I don't have a specific goal in mind, but I want to be out of the 200's so I need to lose 50 lbs.
Looking forward to chatting with you!
Natalie
Welcome Blueiiz! I'm around the same weight as you are starting at. My goal for right now is to get out of the 200's too! It's always great to find someone with the same goals as oneself.

Kevi, Do you wrap up your knee before you play basketball? If not, maybe you should start. I dont know the extent of your problem with your knees, but I know that Tiger Balm works great on pain, but if you use it, dont put too much on because it'll burn. Hope your knee gets better soon Sweetie. Hmm, I'm thinking about starting to run too... or at least jog. But I've been saying that for awhile so I dont suppose that will happen anytime soon.
Later All,
Veronica

Yeah, I wear braces whenever I play basketball and workout. My vacation ended today lol, I actually felt good and saw my vertical leap improved :-D I was 208.2 during my weigh in while I was hydrated and not that hungry. I believe I can get the 2 lbs off easily if I start doing what I'm doing.
Man, everyone here is a parent!? And could be my mom huh? lol
Well let me tell you more about me, I actually listen to my parents lol. I don't talk back to them or anything and I do whatever they tell me to do. They spoil me a little, but I think it's worth it, because I'm a very good child. I do good in school even if i don't study. I'm going to high school and night school and not that stressful, but mom thinks so haha. That's my life

That's good that you wear braces when you play. You know what... I bet you are less than 200 pounds now, you just love us so much that you stay here. LoL.
I'm not a parent and heck no I can't be your mom... Unless I was 6 when I had you. LoL. I'm much like yourself, listen to my parents, well mainly my mom, my stepdad hardly talks to me.
I did great in school too, not because I'm super smart, but because everyone I went to high school with my Soph/Jr/Sr year were stupid. I didn't even have to study, what I was learning I already knew. My mom was slightly dissappointed in the Arizona school system after we moved here. She says that we would have never moved to Arizona if she knew that I was going to be learning stuff I already knew because Californias education system is a bit better. Especially since the first high school I went to in Arizona was considered a great 5A school and I was the only Soph. in classes with Juniors and Seniors due to me being already advanced.
Anyway, I went to 3 different high schools (1 in CA and 2 in AZ) and the last one I went to was a 2A school. Hell, my first day all the teachers tried to speak to me in Spanish because alot of the Mexican kids that went there only spoke Spanish!! Pretty much there were 3 races there, White/Mexican/Native American. I believe that there was only 1 African American guy and NO other races. It was a real shock to me to go from 2 different 5A high schools with 2500+ kids containing every race possible, to a school that was K-12 and graduating in a class of less than 70 kids.
Eh, I know I went off about my high school days, but it's good to remember.

Why do you go to night school too? You trying to graduate early or are they vocational classes? If they are vocational, what career are you getting training on?
New Year, New Thread for Those who Weigh 200 lbs/90 Kg or More Post #765 (permalink)
I moved alot too haha, our family moved here in US back in 2003 and I learned alot and adapted fast haha. I was 12 back then, and we moved from Philippines --> Baltimore --> Ocala, FL --> Baytown, Texas. I have to get used to alot lol. I think by the time I graduate high school i'm gonna be quadringual. I know My language + the dialect, I know a little japanese, I know some Spanish, English, and soon maybe korean lol I can understand some .
I go to night school so I dont have to take extra classes next year and it's needed for nursing.
Guess what guys! I might join the YMCA basketball team. I seen their team before and to be honest, they suck and if I join....hmmm not gonna brag or anything, but were gonna kick ass haha.
