Quisp and Quake are both gone.  I was a Quisp kid myself.

I buy Quisp for my husband once or twice a month at a market downtown.  He loves it.

I tried the chocolate dip.  It tasted sour and gross.  I wouldn't waste my time.  Plus, I thought about what I was showing my kids- It's okay to eat chemicals if you want to lose weight. 

I try to only feed my kids whole, fresh, nutritious food.  I felt ashamed, and threw the rest of the jar out.  Then, I went and bought a high quality ice cream, and ate a responsible serving with my children.  A sweet snack with real ingredients, that didn't kill my calorie budget.

<quote>and there was about 10 times when the microphone was clearly visible at the top of the screen....ridiculous for a film with that budget, you'd at least think they'd manage to edit that out.</quote>

Just so you know, that isn't the fault of the movie.  It is the fault of the projectionist at the theater you went to.  Most movies are filmed like that, and if it is framed right, you can't see it.  You probably had someone who just threw it on, and didn't double check.  You were actually missing the bottom foot of the picture.  I hope you didn't miss any of the shoes!  (That's part of the movie, right?  I wouldn't watch the show, so I am not really sure.)

Atkins or South Beach bars are the best I have found.  Most of their varieties are around 180 calories, and have only 1-5 grams of sugar. 

Most of the other brands are sugary, nasty garbage.

My kids hate to eat breakfast, so they grab an Atkins bar every morning.

One seems to have more sugar and carbs.  Check the ingredient list to make sure that it is only corn, with nothing added.

You have to be really careful.  My mother bought dried fruit, and the second ingredient was sugar, followed by corn syrup, coloring, and flavoring.  YUK!!!

I think I have a good one!

How about Band of Gold?  It is a song about a man who couldn't get it up on his wedding night!

Now that you're gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dream I hold
Is a band of gold
And the memories of what love could be
If you are still here with me

You took me from the shelter of a mother I had never known
Who loved any other
We kissed after taking vows
But that night on our honeymoon
We stayed in separate rooms

I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom
Hoping soon that you'll walk
Back through that door
And love me like you tried before

Ooh, don't you know that I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom
Hoping soon that you'll walk
Back through that door
And love me like you tried before

Since you've been gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dream I hold
Is a band of gold
And the dream of what love could be
If you are still here with me

Your job is to watch porn and comment on it. The actors' jobs are to look desirable.  If that was your job, you could nothing but work on yourself all the time, too!

It was probably easier to deal with the constant reminders of sex when you had a partner at home.  Now that you have decided to go your separate ways, you feel like, "Everyone wants these girls, but I don't have ANYONE!" whether it is true or not.

How many people really want a relationship with the girls who are in that industry?  I am sure there are some, but not as many as would be pleased to know a smart, well-spoken, motivated woman like you.

Just keep on going.  It is how we react to the bad in our lives that shows our true character.  Hang in there!

I will throw away a meal if any two food items touch.  YUK.

I eat all of each item before I move to the next, and I turn my plate so that only that food is directly in front of me.

Woe be to you if you use "my" fork.  It must be washed right after I use it in case I need it again. 

I have a lot more, but I already sound weird enough!

It is called butter  because of its consistency.  There is no butter in PB.  Most of the time, it is just peanuts, salt, and sugar.

And PB and peanuts ARE good for you, in a normal amount.  You just can't eat cup after cup, bar after bar.

I would love to eat PB more than I do, but I know my limits!

Since I have never seen anyone so ugly that I made a face when I saw them, I KNOW you aren't ugly.  You are YOU!  That makes you precious to us all.  As far as anyone who makes a face?  Maybe they just realized they aren't on any magazine covers, either!

Now, list three great things about the way you look for us.  We know you can be negative, and we want to support you in the positive parts, too!

I am 5'11" and a size 10, but it is getting baggy.  I think I was a 14 at 250.  I am a pretty muscular female with a large bone frame and big boobs, so I weigh a LOT more than most people guess by looking at me.  I am 205 right now, but someone guessed I was about 170.

I was just dealing with this issue a few minutes ago.  I have been sick for 4 days, and haven't been able to work out at all.  I have kept my calories really low, and just ate some ice cream.  It was in my calories, but when that bowl was gone, I felt like I deserved more, and got up to get it.

I stopped myself by asking if I would feel better when the second bowl was gone.  Other than soothing my throat, the first hadn't done anything for me. 

I put it away and didn't eat it.  I am worried about gaining weight from the four days I have been unable to work out.  I am 5'11" and 205 pounds, and have been eating 1600-1800 a day.  I am really worried that I will be up, even though I have eaten well.  I am so close to being under 200 pounds for the first time in 15 years, and I am scared that getting sick just messed it all up!

And that is why I am shopping more at our farmers' markets.

I am with you.  I actually try to avoid meeting my husband's employees, because I kind of think they'll lose respect for him for being married to me.  Even now, after losing 110 pounds and being a size 10 at 5'11", I feel too big to be comfortable meeting people.

I am also putting off meeting my dad after 23 years  because I don't want him to be ashamed that I am his kid.  I want to be proud of what I look like and know that I won't embarrass him before I return contact.

As of this morning, I have lost 110.8 pounds using Slim-Fast!

Of course, I was out of mine, and had to drink a strawberry.  Ick.

As long as you make sure you get enough calories and exercise, the SF plan works great!  I can't imagine doing without it.  I really enjoy it, and recommend it.
