Thanks hon You are so sweet!
I have been taking painkillers all day but it doesn't help.. Am having a hot pillow on my tummy now and it makes it better. Though I am so not in a dancing mood anymore

Jen, you shouldn't let those guys opinions matter when you decide who you want to be. It's easier said than done, I know. If you feel like YOU wouldn't feel comfortable being bigger, then you shouldn't try to. It would be a damn shame if you didn't give BB your best shot, cause you have such a great body for it. Maybe you'd rather get into Fitness though, the options are endless.
I'm just going to focus on leaning out now. I don't care if I loose a little mass while doing cardio, it's not a big deal to me. Right now I really don't think about competing at all, it's just not my thing I think. Maybe it will be over time, maybe not.

Thank you so much for always being here Jen, you are a great friend

david

You will when you tranfer to the University in VA!!!! I'll make a point of it visiting you, Justin and Rock.

Stacey

Jen-- Your just sooo sweet!!! Thank you so much for being a wonderful & True friend!!!!!!!!!!!

atherjen

aww sweetie I hope that your evening turns out well!! *hug*

you are compeltly right Jenny. Ive always done my own thing regardless of waht anyone else thought of me. and I still continue to do so... its just sooo frustrating sometimes. I dont think that I want to be any bigger. Im pretty sure. I dont want to be a huge manly bb. getting into more serious figure might be cool.. aside from it just being a flavvy out of shape bikini contest around here compared to the awesome shows elsewhere.
I completly RESPECT your decision girl. do what you feel is best for you and what you want!! thats the most important. just trying to better yourself is all that counts. Your way may not seem right to others but heyyy were only human and all diff (gosh I need to start to listen to myself eh!! )
your such a great person to talk to hun. means a ton to me!! and Im always here for you as well!
Hope the day brightens up for you!!

I bet your room looks really pretty with all the IKEA stuff! I love that store!

I'm sooo sorry about your tummy cramps!! I know how hard it is to want to socialize when you have cramps. I always stay home b/c standing around is hard to do.
However, thats great that you worked out...its suppose to relieve the cramps. My Doctor has told me that one of the best "for now " cures for my endometriosis is working out ( I know you don't have this--but its severe cramping)

I hope it goes away soon!!!!!

And With the weight workout issue-- do whatever your heart wants honey-- You have a great figure and whatever you do--will workout fine.

Stacey

What wonderful advice Jen!!!!!

Jenny

Guys, you are the sweetest It's so nice to have you around to support me, it keeps me going

I didn't go out last night and it was a wise decision. I'm feeling so much better right now and I'm going spinning in just a few minutes

David, that would be SO GREAT!! Aww, we'd have so much fun!! Though it's not final whether I'm going or not, but hopefully I am. The exchange thing is a long process with contracts and stuff, but hopefully I'll get some good news soon

AJ, don't worry about all of that right now. The thing you need to focus on now is your BB comp! You know you're doing that and that is ALL you need to know right now, when you've done that you can start thinking of the next step. I'm like that too though, I keep thinking way ahead and planning vaguely and then stuff turns up that makes me change them anyways. Don't worry honey, you'll figure it all out, we both will

Stace, hey sweets I know, IKEA rocks!! I love decorating and I can't wait to decorate a whole home someday
The cramps are not that bad, it's only for the first day of my period. I know you've had a lot of problems with yours honey, I hope that will get better over time

Big hugs to all of you!!

Jenny

Whew, when I came to the gym today about 7 min before the class started, I found out that the spinning instructor was sick and they didn't have anyone teaching it. The class was full too! Of course I did my duty and RAN (sprinting is more like it) home to get my spinning music and taught the class. It went really well But I am one tired chica right now

Hey babe,
I'm sorry you weren't feeling so well yesterday. I hope today is a much better day.

Good for you for taking over that spinning class - that gym is so lucky to have you.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is just a habit.

I am worth it!

Jill

Jenny

Thanks girls I'm feeling good today It wasn't a biggie teaching the spinning, I was going to do the class anyways and now I got paid I had my music ready from my Tuesday class, so it was just fun
Took my friend Johanna to the gym again today and we looked at her diet logs. It was bad, she has noooo clue when it comes to nutrition Her family eats bad and she lives at home so it's going to be hard for her to change. I've set up some mini-goals for her for the coming week though
