Becky, I am living proof that you are able to make friends and keep them–for as long as we are both alive!

I thought it was great yours was school mine was my dad. Though I now know it wasn’t intentional he thought it would make me stronger.. I have but a few close friends and I don’t socialize either, but I to will live with the scars all my life. Dad and I had time to work out our differences before he passed away. But like you said you can’t forget the words.. I know writing should help just as talking to my Dad helped lessen the pain.. Good luck to you

From someone who is passionate about the weather (read: geek) thanks for posting the pics of the Dominator. As someone who suffers from the occasional case of “would have, could have, should have” and the one thing I’ve learned is: do it. What about setting up a website and some gear to monitor local weather in your area? You, unlike many of us, can actually understand the gear and it’s reporting…just a thought. Don’t let your passion fade too far away.

Ask around your office there might be someone else interested in weather and they have never expressed it at work..You never know!! I would go no matter what..I went to storm chasing class last weekend to become a storm chaser.. they may offer one of those in your area also

i amazingly read these blog posts, even though you do complain a lot.

Well … it is *my* blog. I can post whatever the hell I please on it.

first: the interstate speed limit is “go with the flow”. if you are hogging traffic up at 60 then you need to speed up with what traffic is doing.

I do go with the flow, but I don’t want to be the one pulled over. And I’m not “hogging up” traffic. I’m not gonna drive like an idiot just because everyone else is.

laughed about the wiper blade story. just funny. and your finger hurts lol.

Bite me.

is that date suppose to be 2001 or 2011? cuz that’s a miracle! (if you really did, which i may doubt…)

Fixed.

have you watched Battlestar Galactica at all? the tv series i’m currently watching is 3rd rock from the sun (so funny)

get netflix also. this will save you from early bed times lol.

Battlestar Galactica doesn’t interest me. And no desire to get Netflix. I don’t watch enough movies or tv shows to warrant the cost, no matter how insignificant it might seem. I’m trying to save up for a house. That’s more important to me than watching movies or tv.

And what’s on or not on tv isn’t the reason I’m contemplating going to bed early.

Becky,

This is EXACTLY how I got started. The only difference was I didn’t do it in the morning. I was more of an evening person.

You are really setting yourself up for success. The only thing I would add to the mix with your Lose It website is to make sure that there is a community function. Somewhere you can log in and talk to other people online about how they are losing, what stumbling block you may be running into, what tips and hints you have for others and what you can learn from them.

For example… for some reason I started to get dizzy some mornings getting up. Couldn’t figure it out. I was eating my correct calorie intake. So I went on my website (I was using Calorie Count) and I asked if anyone knew why. Someone immediately responded that I was probably Iron deficient. They were right.

Granted… it isn’t medical advice, but people are great for support, even if it is virtual.

Walking and the elliptical are great tools to get you where you need to go. They are good belly burners. When you start building up your stamina I highly recommend going all out and doing a kick boxing video. They are fun and you lose weight laughing at yourself when you can’t do half the crap they are doing anyway.

I know you can do this and endorphins from working out are going to start making your mental outlook turn around. That is something you’ll start to notice as well.

Good luck. This is your year!
