Rocco32 · 01-06-2004, 06:25 AM

Welcome back Jen, great Avi!! Don't drop the comp. Everyone has had setbacks and that's just normal. Besides, that length of time is not going to cripple you, just feels like it now! C'mon, back on the training wagon so we can kick some arse!!

Hammerlynn · 01-06-2004, 06:50 PM

Hi Jenny

I'm so glad that you had an amazing trip. I did not realize you were in Chicago! I love the city...Giordano's is so hard to resist

I hope that you are feeling better about stuff today. I know it's hard but dont give up on your comp. It'll be something to keep you focused!
Take care of you!

Hey NT..ben looking for a new scuba destination..and found the lovely island of Curacao....HAD BEACH WEDDINGS...(hint hint,, Justin and Jenny)

hey NT..it's a www.superclub.com resort....

Glad you two had a great time @ New Years! I wasn't able to be with my honey..I was @ work..but I got to talk to her on the phone...

Jenny · 01-07-2004, 02:30 AM

Hey peeps..

Whoa, take it easy on the wedding plans would you

Though a beach wedding sounds kinda nice

We are currently making plans on how to be living together this coming fall. Hopefully we'll figure out a way for Justin to go to school here, if not I'll probably take a year off from school and working in the US. If I can get a work permit, which isn't easy. All I know is that I can't live without him like this much longer, I'd end up in the nut house

Starting school today. Once again I'm way behind and I wish I cared more about it than I do. I'm really not motivated, but I know I need to kick myself in the butt and get motivated!!

My body is not doing as bad as I though it was. The bloating is starting to disappear. I have gained a bit of fat, but my arms are still defined and I have still made improvements since the before pics. I just wish I would have taken the mid-pics BEFORE I went to Chicago, cause I looked friggin hot

I'm not dropping out of the comp though, I'm still in! I'd regret it if I dropped out

I will continue doing this 2 day program all throgh January and in Feb I'll start the 4-5 day split again. This 2 day program has been a nice change and my body has liked something new.
Diet will be my own thing for a while, at least that's how I feel right now. I felt so good when I did my own thing for two weeks before I started cheating and I just listened to my body and saw great changes. However, if I start noticing bad food choices, or if I'm not getting leaner, I will go back to Carb Cycling.

Once again I'm way behind in school, but this time I don't really care.. I know that's bad, but this subject is just so darn uninteresting. Epistemology

The teacher sucks and pretty much everyone I've talked to in class are aming for the re-test after failing the first one

The second test is easier and it will not show in the grades if you fail the first one. I will give it my best though.. I've done it before and can do it again

I'm missing Justin like crazy, we talk on the phone twice a day and just miss each other like crazy. He's amazing and everything I ever want

He'll be coming over to Sweden in March and I can't wait

Hammerlynn · 01-08-2004, 10:21 AM

You should check into a student visa

J'Bo · 01-08-2004, 10:27 AM

hey Jenny.
you cant gain fat in that short of time silly

it will all go down you just wait and see.
listening to your body is the best thing you can do.
thats the hardest thing about training over the net.
you just cant see whats going on and tell how they feel.
if you start to feel full again then lower things down thats all

i bet you miss Justin. remember when i said that you were being selfish by wanting more and more of him?
well i take that back and i am sorry.
i think that i just forgot how it felt to crave and care for someone. i remember now though

Jenny · 01-08-2004, 12:06 PM

I wouldn't have a problem getting that I think, but there's a money thing. In Sweden college/University is free and in USA it's NOT

I would lose a heck of a lot of money, to do an exchange year I would pay around 25 000$

There might be some community colleges that are cheaper, but not close to where Justin's at. I might be able to figure something out though, like taking one course that isn't really within my major and get a student visa but still be able to work. Hmm :hmm:

If anyone has any experience with things like this, please let me know

I CAN gain a little fat! Come on, 11 days of cheating

That does make me able to pack on fat

You have helped me sooo much honey and I won't hesitate to ask you things again

And I'm sooooo not selfish for wanting more and more of Justin

I'm glad you see that now too

J'Bo · 01-08-2004, 12:09 PM

what about him going to school there?

jenny fix the spelling on your signature love...Its neeDing not neeing

Jenny · 01-08-2004, 12:10 PM

We are looking into that too and that is our first alternative. If that doesn't work out, me going over there is plan B

I already fixed the sig silly

Stacey · 01-08-2004, 12:23 PM

Well too bad theres not a community college or a Junior college near by him. Those are a lot cheaper. Thats what I attended for 3.5 years.

Your doing great honey...

Jenny · 01-08-2004, 12:36 PM

Well, there is a community college, they just don't offer the things I need for my degree.. But it's a good idea still, at least that would solve the visa issue

At if I'm still able to work it might be okay.. Hmm, thank's Stace

Stacey · 01-08-2004, 12:43 PM

no prob honey!! I have the same problems.. I would love to go to this community college thats on my way home from work-- but they do not have the classes that I need...bugars!

Hopefully you will be able to get a work permit!

What are your parents saying about this??

J'Bo · 01-08-2004, 12:47 PM

yah what does the fam think?

Jenny · 01-08-2004, 01:21 PM

My family is happy for me that I've found someone that I'm so happy with

They wouldn't try to stop me if I wanted to go over there and they'd be happy to have him here to get to know him better

Stacey · 01-08-2004, 03:50 PM

Thats WONDERFUL Jenny!!!!!!!!!!!

Eggs · 01-08-2004, 08:09 PM

All I know is I need my Jenny

Missing you darling

and you know I'd love to get to know your parents better and be in Sweden with you

Wish you were with me for my car ride today!
