Oops, work sucked me in.

This same coworker routinely wears shoes with +/-5" heels.  She walks a lot better in them than I would... but that's not really saying much.

I was walking behind a girl wearing heels like that downtown on Saturday (sparkly and beautiful) and I guess I was talking a bit loud because she gave me a glare.

I was literally saying "holy crap those heels are amazing, and I wish I could walk in them but I would absolutely DIE".   I tried to explain that to her but she stomped off.  meh.

I'm not riding the trainer, I rode it all winter.  I'd rather ride in the rain.

And my cycling shorts are basically just a bathing suit with a maxi pad sewn into the crotch anyway.

finally a guy who knows what it feel like to have a matress glued to his pants.

!!! this made me LOL :D

Tonight is spin, and same thought process here, Bex.  :)

On another note, my coworker is wearing a silky, fluorescent pink shirt with cutouts at the shoulder... the kind of shirt a woman might wear to a club... and a black bra underneath.  o.O

Well, when that's the only thing left in your clean clothes when you're dressing....

... you wear the cleanest black or brown thing you can find?!  :D

I was excited about it until you mentioned the bra.  

But I routinely dress as though I've been attacked by a highlighter.  Embarassed

Thanks everyone and I really am trying. if I get a sugar craving, do I eat something sweet?? I don't think my parents would let me cause my doctor said to o off it. But my parents are starting to think that maybe I can eat small amounts of gluten, dairy and sugar again. I'll still try and eat as little of them as I can but my parents want to talk to my doctor first. Oh and I'm going next Tuesday to the doctor ( the one who's a quack) and on the 7th june to he other doctor ( the one who's not a quack).

What about fruit instead of something like candy?  That would work, too!  

 

ETA: something I love to do:  peel and freeze a banana.  then, throw it in the blender with some peanut butter, or cocoa powder, or raspberries, coconut, whatever.  It's like ice cream but not, and is cold and kinda creamy :D 


I would say with her low calorie count she's pretty good to have whatever she wants as far as sweet is concerned, but something that adds to nutrition is always a good choice :)

well it was mostly because I know she's avoiding gluten and processed sugar because of dietary stuff/doctor's suggestions.  not because she needs to watch cals at all.

I'm not undereating on purpose. I started undereating because I was sick and didn't feel well. My doctor told me that's normal with chronic fatigue syndrome.

to be fair, under-eating can have similar symptoms to CFS, can't it?  I would keep eating more, and keep in touch with your doctor.  I hope you feel better!!!

Wow, that's a lot!  I'm guessing it's bodyweight squats?

Oh my god yes.  :D

I'm learning form for weighted squats in one of my gym classes.  We're just using bodybars (I use the 20lb one for squats).  Someday, I'll have the cojones to use the weight rack etc. :D

Yes, yes it is!

I was looking at my bottom in yoga pants yesterday, and I do think squats have helped its shape.

Anyway... it's the flat footed squat that I was thinking of.  It's a movement most Westerners have to relearn, as we stop doing it after toddlerhood.

Today is day 6 of the squat challenge.  75 squats.  :D  I hope it helps my bum!!

I still have my mom's barbies from the 50s somewhere.  When I was little, because she was slightly bigger (in all ways) and had super blond hair, i would always pretend she was german. hahahahaaha.  oh childhood.

I didn't have a GI Joe. I'm jealous. I She would've totally have preferred that over Ken or... well... turtles. Or maybe if Ken had better outfits... he always looks like he wants to go golfing. So boring.

ETA: And I hated his hair. It was plastic. :|

I used to put ken in girl clothes.  further proof that i was into drag queens at a young age/had a serious lack of distinction between genders... haha

It's not the condoms themselves, to me; it's more the time it takes to locate one and unwrap it and make sure it's perfectly applied.  The process feels kind of clinical and can affect the 'mood,' y'know?

oh my god, no, for me it's more the smell of latex and iwdufgjasgfkasd and the sound of them sometimes.. ya know? and... *eeuurghh*  afterwards the asjhfdksdgfksua *squirms*

I affect the mood more often than not by doing something dumb, so with regards to that, it's not the condoms haahah.
