Sulli301 on "How much weight do you plan/want to loose before the wedding?"

Sulli301 — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 15:19:10 +0000

My wedding is fast approaching (3.5 months) and I still want to loose a little weight and tone up. I'm a pretty small girl but I need to re-do my "30 day shred" which really helps me tone and loose maybe 10 lbs...it is a slow process and a challenging one! I have been trying to 1)Stop snacking (I love chocolate! and I love greasy foods :X) 2)Eat healthier/more veggies and 3)eat less! while working out and maintaining a healthy balance I also take cytolean2 which I began taking in college while I was living a very active/in shape lifestyle. It is a great product IF you don't abuse it or count on JUST it working. It gives me tons of energy and helps me burn more fat How much weight do you want to loose before your big day? And how long do you have to loose it? What are you doing to make this happen?

Helstrong on "Insert Clever Title Here"

BTW... I hate titling my posts.  I know I need to, so that ya'll know what I'm talking about... however I just couldn't find one in me today. First off, my SO and I work at the same office, relatively close to each other. So the other day I happen to walk up to his desk and he's chatting with someone on facebook. (We work on a call center and he was doing this between calls.  They all got new computers they other day and IT hasn't blocked the internet yet).  I tell him or ask him whatever I was going over there for and go back to my desk. Later that night we are in bed and his phone says he has a text message. So I go to pick up the phone to hand it to him when the phone rings.  He answers the call and when he's done it shows the previous text message.  It shows that it's from a girl he used to work with.  (Side note, we both used to work at a department store together, but in different departments across the mall from each other. This girl worked in the same department as he did, and so not only did he work with her but I saw her there as well as I was often taking things from our womens store across the mall to the mens). When he showed me that the message was from this certain girl, I didn't realize it was the girl we worked with, so I asked who it was and he tells me.  He then says that she's the one who he was talking to earlier at work.  I asked if they had been in touch much, or if they often talked (I hadn't heard about this girl in quite a while, it was a few months ago when she was takling to him online as well). He says that he hasn't talked to her since then but apparently she confided in him about something in her marriage. (She got married around the time we stopped working at the department store).  HE said that she had confided in him that she had cheated on her husband, but she didn't plan to tell him. At this point I"m a little confused, and concerned.  I didn't understand, and still really dont, why she was telling him this. They were never close friends before, just work aqcuaintences.  He said he must have been too much of an open ear when they were talking online, that she felt he could text him and tell him. (I think possibly she might have also told him because she didn't want to tell anyone in her life who could judge her or tell her husband).  My SO then tells me that he deleted the entire conversation on his phone because she wanted him to keep it a secret.  (I'm pretty sure he wasn't lying about this, as I can normally tel when he's lying, but this just seemed funny to me).  Girls and guys process gossip so different... So I'm feeling kind of weird about all this.  Then the other day I get on the computer and it shows that he had been looking at her wedding pictures on her facebook, and it showed the same thing today. I"m kind of confused why he'd be looking at all her photos.  I told him that I thought the whole situation seemed kind of odd to me and made me feel uncomfortable (although I didn't tell him I saw that he looked at her photos as he isn't home).  He reassured me yesterday that I'm the woman of his dreams and he'll be proposing soon. He said he hasn't talked to her since she texted him the other day with the details of her relationship. He said he didn't flirt with her in any way, and if she tried to insinuate that she wanted something with him that he'd be sure to put her in her place.  I know I shouldn't be worried, but I am.  I'll be honest and put this out there... I have trust issues, which is a whole other store, but we're working on them.  Part is his fault and part his mine.  He's never cheated on me though or given me any reason to believe he would (the trust issue is related to something else entirely)   I just needed to get this out.... Sorry it's so long.  That seems to be my MO.

Sulli301 on "Registry items...small?"

Sulli301 — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 19:34:41 +0000

Hey all :) I really want to add some small items to my registry but want some fun ideas for what to ask for. We are registered at Macy's and William Sonoma. I went to bridal shower today and noticed a lot of people like to buy one larger gift and then one or two smaller add ons and I am nervous I don't have enough of those and it might be fun to add. suggestions?

juliaelizabeth3 on "Do you participate in the bouquet toss if you're engaged?"

juliaelizabeth3 — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 17:10:30 +0000

This may sound silly, but I feel very awkward about trying to catch the bouquet at a wedding when I'm already engaged!  I caught the bouquet about a year ago at my cousin's wedding...when I got engaged a few months later, my family loved to joke about how I was "next" afterall since I caught the bouquet.  I have two good friends who got engaged AFTER I did, and they are each getting married BEFORE I am.  It feels very weird to me to participate in their bouquet toss at their weddings when I was engaged even before they were; however, I don't want to offend them since I will still technically be single.  So...do I hafta?

okqueenbee on "What in the WORLD do you do with extra clothes hangers?!"

okqueenbee — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 15:29:28 +0000

Strange post I know, but somehow over the years I have accumulated about a zillion plastic clothes hangers. I guess I would put the extras somewhere, then eventually I would clean out my closet (which would give me more hangers) and then put THOSE hangers somewhere, and later buy more clothes forgetting all about the hangers so I would buy MORE hangers LOL. Sooo... now I have approximately 1,475,362 spare hangers. Ok not really but it sure does feel like it and trust me, we don't have that much closet space, so I can't just hang the empty ones up. I hate to get rid of them, because they do cost money (but then again, they're only like a dollar for 10 at walmart  :P) Anyways, ok back to working on my closets now!

Minutiae on "Spring has sprung: time to garden!"

Minutiae — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 18:50:20 +0000

I'm so, so happy the weather has turned here! Check out what popped up in one of the garden beds: <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v315/AshBeanNun/Photography/IMG_0080.jpg" title="IMG_0080" /> Crocuses! We have these blue ones and some white. Soooo gorgeous! (And can you spy the bee? I wonder what it means to have honeybees flying around in March...) We also have daffodils that are getting ready to bloom, and tulips have sent their leaves out.  Is anyone planting a garden this year? What are you growing?
