Jen I just ordered the red suit

Yesterday I was getting over my binge so yeah not much food there. Plus with it being the first day of the new job I couldn't really take a break to eat more than once. (I did today though!)

Tonight I wanted to do weights & cardio and did nothing!! My commute home was RE - DICULOUS! I am going to see if I can switch my hrs to 8-4 or maybe 7-3. I need to get my workouts in dammit.

Oh well with this headache I wouldn't have been able to lift much anyways.

Oh, I am TRYING to get my pics downloaded or uploaded or whatever but I can't figure it out

Have a super b-day sweets!! BTW, I am mad at you-I bought "all bran", and cant stop eating it. I tried it with Steves skim milk and it was like heaven!!! The bad side is that eating so much has made me REAL sick-Geeze I've been binging on bran! needless to say, I threw the remainder of the box into the garbage! Thats how I control myself

Thanks Everybody :HUGS:

I am sorry Jill. Did you get the one with Xtra fiber? The box I get only comes in a small size (yet Fiber One comes in a regular size box). Oh boy don't overeat it - with that much fiber things get uncomfortable (speaking from experience).

You guys, its POURING here and it's supposed to rain til Monday when it might actually change over to snow. Well at least we spring ahead this weekend. Is it just me or does it seem like we have been waiting to turn the clocks ahead forever this year?

Oh yeah I am going out to eat this weekend with my boyfriend. He is taking me to Chili's (my fave) for my b-day. I like them because they have a healthy menu and you can get veggies and grilled chicken..mmm. Then my mom is getting me a gift cert so I can buy new sneakers. I have had the same ones for I guess 3-4 years now. My friend is coming out with me on Monday after work so I can get my new sneakers. Any recommendations?

Ugh. My mom always buys a cake and I never eat it. It's like a tradition. Well the cake is really for my dad and brothers ha ha. I might freeze a piece and eat it after my competition or when I reach my goal.

I should post of pic of my cake so you guys can enjoy it too!

errr - as soon as I figure out how to do that!

frozen cake is yummy

I have trouble finding shoes/sneakers that fit that is why I don't buy too many. Some brands are too narrow because I have wide feet. The ones I have now are Avia.

My friend was saying you can go to nike.com and create a custom pair of sneakers for yourself. I think they are called Nike Shocks(?)

WTF, 3-4 year old sneakers? I run 4x a week for a total of around 30 miles. You are supposed to get new sneakers every 6 months, or every 500 miles. It doesn't matter if they still look good. After 6 months, the cushioning wears down. Also, I know quite a bit about selecting the right shoe for you foot, but my advice tends to be more runner specific.

Also, rather than being concerned with a specific brand, try on a variety of shoes. Everyone's foot is different and what model shoe or what brand of shoe that works for one, may not work for another.

I am trying to get my pics up here. I successfully loaded my pics from my camera to Kodak EasyShare. It is so cool how you can brighten the photos or get "red eye" out. This is a fun toy

How can you go so long w/ the same shoes? As soon as mine "die" I absolutely need new ones because my feet and ankles start hurting because they need support

Well yesterday was going fine until last night:

I hadn't heard from my boyfriend all day. He never called to wish me a happy birthday so finally I called him at 9pm last night. Basically he broke up with me over the phone. I am a wreck today. I was totally blindsided by this. We hadn't even been arguing at all and to my knowledge everything was great with us. We were looking at condos and talking marriage; now he doesn't want any part of it. I can't make sense of anything right now, I can't believe this is happening, and the way he did it too. Ha, at first I thought it was an April Fool's joke but he was serious. He didn't want to tell me the reason why he wanted to do this; I kept asking and begging him to tell me because after 4.5 yrs down the drain I think the least he could do was give me a reason. I sort of got something outta him: he thinks I am not independent enough! I gather that he thinks this because my mom and I have a close relationship, and yes, I do admit that she still does some things for me because I live at home, not because I ask her to. I have lived on my own before at school (before I met HIM) and did all my own laundry, bills, worked, cleaned, cooked, and pulled an A- average. Yeah, I am trying to move out and become more independent, but the only reason I haven't is due to money. There are MANY people my age, in their late 20's and early 30's still living at home in Mass. because it is damn expensive not too! Anyways...getting back to the subject....I think he got rubbed the wrong way by my mom and now he wants to back out. You see I am the one with the down payment so the condo was to be in my name only. His father has a lot of dough but is stingy and wants him to wait til he dies to inherit it so basically it is up to me if I want a wedding, a place to live, it is my money that has to pay for it! I was actually fine with this because he will inherit some $ and a house with no mortgage so I figured I wouldn't have a ton of worries about money later in life. My now ex was fine with this too (with his name not being on the condo). Then he brought it up a few weeks ago that he wanted me to put his name on the condo too, because his dad won't help us out unless his name is on the condo. I thought it over and said no. My 1st inclination was to say yes because that is just the type of person I am. I trust(ed) him. But I knew it would be wise to say no for now. If we got married it would be 1/2 his anyways after 5 years. My mom found out about this and told me don't do it (she is just trying to protect me) and I stupidly told him my mom said it wasn't a good idea for his name to be on it. Ever since then he started withdrawing from me and not showing any affection whatsoever. He didn't even call me - I had to call him! He was like "I wasn't going to call, I thought you'd figure it out." F-in a-hole!!! I am here at work and cannot concentrate for the life of me.
