Oh dear!

It's going to be in the 70s this week ... time to dust off and fill up the tires on my bike. A coworker is trying to get me to start biking to work.

DD....ix nay on the filling up the bike tires...shamey2 has been on my case about that.

It's a two-fold benefit - use less gas and get exercise! It's just a matter of time ... usually stuff to do after work.

aww, thanks moony, but its all good. The pain has pretty much subsided UNLESS I try to bite into something. And then next wednesday I go through it all again. Never ending.

The main issue is my body doesnt know what to do with itself anymore...between the cutting down smoking (I wont lie, esp with this no eating thing I've been cheating with the smoking...nothing crazy but a few here or there....whatever), the new eating (well non eating) habits and the gym workouts.... I'm either so energized and peppy or run down and crabby.

It's all worth it right? lol

I'm missing something - why the no eating, tink?

[Broadwayboobs]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 1:18pm

Tinky, the end result is so worth it. Don't worry about the smoking...you will fully quit when the time is right. Stay strong girl!

DD - A few weeks ago I started with the invisalign braces.

Awww, thanks Boobs! :)

[Broadwayboobs]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 1:25pm

I asked my dentist if I needed invisalign. I figured it would help with the whole eating too much problem I have. He said I didn't need them and then I remembered that I am really not a fan of pain. Guess I'll just have to resign myself to being fat.

Posted: 6/8/10 at 1:26pm

Ah ... cool! Though sorry you're in pain. My ex had them.

Boobs is right - they always say to tackle one major thing at a time, or else nothing will take.

I have to stop and pick up my contact supply later. I also want to find out why there's a difference of $181 between what they charged me and what they submitted to insurance.

"Guess I'll just have to resign myself to being fat."

Shut up.

I'd like to be fat the way you're fat, Boobs.

I actually took a real live lunch break today - first time since December! I hit DSW, looking for an evening bag and came back with said purse, a new pair of running/walking shoes and a cute pair of flats. I don't think I can afford to take any more lunch breaks.

Awww thanks Deet, but this "no smoking" thing has slowed down my metabolism. I need to get my a$$ back on that bike...oh yea there's that whole air in the tire thingy. I did bring it to be filled up, but the machine was broke...just my luck. Time to find a gas station with a working air pump!

Boobs - it happens. It takes about a year for your body to get used to it. jS and I both gained a lot of weight in the past few years since we quit, though we are now determined to change all that.

[Q]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 2:40pm

What does it say that I still smoke and I'm still fat?

I stopped drinking, though. That's just made me meaner.

[MotorTink]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 2:45pm

I started meeting you fine people about a year after I quit smoking, and I was probably 30 lbs heavier, and then in total the next year another 20 for a total of 50lbs gained. Never fun.

[Bluemoon]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 2:51pm

Been there, ate that, weighed that, Tink. Thirty-five off, but the last 10 just won't go.

[D2]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 2:51pm

Q, I'd smack the crap out of you for that statement if I didn't think you'd enjoy it so much.

*mutters to himself about the tall beanpole claiming he's fat mutter mutter mutter crunch on that damned lettuce mutter mutter mutter*

[DayDreamer]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 2:56pm

deet - I was about to post a very similar reply to Q. *grumbles at Q*

moony - maybe you are where you are supposed to be! I'm told that I should be at 172/175, but I don't want to go under 185, I start to look like I'm sick if I go that low.

[Q]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 3:00pm

Everything is relative, gentlemen. I am currently 20 pounds heavier than I have ever been in my life - and almost all of it is encased in the 'spare tire' that, at this point, looks like it could reasonably be used on a Hummer.

[Bluemoon]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 3:00pm

I have bulges that say otherwise, DD.

[shameless]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 3:20pm

LOL!

FTR, the only reason I say anything to him about filling up his tires is because he keeps telling me about how fat he's getting, which I know is a lie!

[MotorTink]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 3:33pm

Boobs is hot

[Broadwayboobs]

Posted: 6/8/10 at 3:46pm

Awww Tinky, have I told you lately that I love you? Well, I do! *mwah*

LS, I was talking about your other half getting on my case about the tires. Hence the "Shamey2"
