redrose85 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 No worries, when you live there, you can ‘remind’ him until it saves his sanity to just go to the doctor, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 No worries, when you live there, you can ‘remind’ him until it saves his sanity to just go to the doctor, etc... lol, very true - just annoy him into going to the doctor (although he can turn that around on me as well, lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Thinks it's time she took this weight loss for a healthier body seriously - instead of staying until 1 tomorrow I'm going to leave about 12 and hit the gym after work.

OptomisticGirl Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 I found this on Pinterest a few days ago, def. going to do for a visual help: image removed Each marble stands for 1 lbs. For every pound you lose you put it in the 'lost pounds' jar. If you gain you have to put it back and you have one fat gem at the bottom that designates when you've reached your goal weight.

Saffron_ Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Oooh I love that! So so simple! But a great visual reminder *starts looking around for jars and pebbles* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntress0527 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 OG- I'm really wanting to lose as well. If you like we can PM or do it in journal weekly what we lost to help with accountability. Not sure if you're interested but if so just let me know. I usually weigh in every Saturday and if I have someone that I have to check in with I will lose more (the WW approach) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 I'd actually love to do that! I'm not held accountable by anyone and I think it would be great. We could even get any other posters who want to as well if they wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntress0527 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I'll start a weekly journal if you don't mind posting your starting weight end weight and lbs lost per week. Othewise we can take it to PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OptomisticGirl Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 L and I were discussing old jobs we use to have and the subject got brought around to our exes. He asked me how long my ex and I had dated before we moved in together and I was trying to think back to when we actually started dating.... apparently mine and my ex's anniversary date was the same as L and his ex fiance's anniversary date (although obviously years apart because L is older than me). I found this hilarious for some reason, lol I also discovered an old online journal I use to keep as a teenager... OMG. It's like reading another person's words! I'm reading this and going 'you poor thing'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangletsbang Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Looking back at the beginning of my journal here is embarassing... -.- I was an idiot. I probably still am..just slowly understanding life now, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 I wonder if in 10 years I'll look back on this journal with the same out look. I'm re reading these old posts from when I was a teenager and it's filled with 'oh my geez' and 'I can't live without him'... typical teenage stuff, the stuff that makes ME roll my eyes at teengers nowadays.

OptomisticGirl Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 So ready for my weekend off, it feels like it should have been a Friday today but it's only Wednesday, blah! I came home and tried to do pilates but my mom kept wanting to talk to me while I was doing it and Tyler, well... when I started to do it he just stood there watching me like he couldn't figure out what I was doing. Then at some point he tried mimicking whatever move I was doing and eventually got tired of that and decided to attack me while I was doing it. *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptomisticGirl Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 It's not unusual to be loved by anyone It's not unusual to have fun with anyone But when I see you hanging about with anyone It's not unusual to see me cry, Oh I wanna' die. It's not unusual to go out at any time But when I see you out and about it's such a crime If you should ever want to be loved by anyone, It's not unusual It happens every day No matter what you say You find it happens all the time Love will never do what you want it to Why can't this crazy love be mine. It's not unusual, to be mad with anyone It's not unusual, to be sad with anyone But if I ever find that you've changed at anytime It's not unusual to find out that I'm in love with you This song always brings a smile to my face. When we were on our honeymoon we went and saw The Three Musketeer's (horrible movie). Before hand we were walking around Broadway at the Beach and they play music throughout the area over loud speakers and such. This song came on and it's apparently one L likes - or knows well - and he started dancing with me in the middle of Broadway while singing it to me. He even twirled me at one point and I've never been twirled before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redrose85 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 awww love it. So sweet. My fave oldie is “Happy Together” Long ago I told Alex it would be our first dance song and ever since, he learned it and hums it all the time. Plane ticket!!! The end/beginning is in sight. Maybe that’s why 2012 feels like a time-warp, the universe wants to bring you two together, faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan is almost gone, so we are almost at the 8 month mark (if I fly in on the 4, that's completely dependent on how long it takes L to find a house that accepts pets and for them to process our visa).
