Updatey thing...

[phyncke]

I have sent my story off to my brave beta khylea. I think it needs some work and hope she will have some pointers on it. I tried to find inspiration on the conclusion of the tale and while usually that is my strong suit, this one is not working really. Will see what she says

Difference between you and me is you've written something, lol. Mine is a concept that will get nailed down into words when the weather cools enough for me to focus. Writing and heatwaves don't go together well.

Dress for Success sounds like a really good networking concept, specially for women with interviews pending who to make the right impression.

[phyncke]

I wrote something but don't feel the usual connection to the story. I think the character did not connect for me so there is that. Not sure.

The Dress for Success does just that, what you said. It is for women who need interview clothes or work clothes. I was happy to open my closet and had some that would work. They especially wanted the sizes I had so that was good. :)

I've been trying to become a smaller person for 2 years now. it worked for the first couple of months then I gained it back plus more.

I haven't written anything since the night I quit the RPG but I am hoping to get some more writing done this weekend.

Aww. Well I had to make health changes that helped me with the weight loss - lowering sugar in take and fat content of my food. That got me going on the health thing.

You are a super productive writer so I bet you will get going right on that! :)

[elladansgirl]

I've started to do some changes in my food and am lookig into what else I can change. I am hoping to lose some weight before i move to BC.

When I gave up Pepsi, I lost 20 pounds right off the bat. I also gave up cheese pretty much and that helped too. I took it one thing at a time so I did not feel overwhelmed...my doctor gave me this tip - small things that add up to a lot when you put it all together. So that is what I did. I still work on it and have good days and bad days. I am in a weight loss comm (linked on the sidebar) which is a support comm for this if you want to chat and post about it while you work on it. We post and comment to each other as we try and lose weight. It is on my links there.

yay for dancing :) Awesome news on the clothes :) I need to donate my stuff too... I'm down 2 sizes and I wasn't even trying LOL. I put on a pair of jeans and I'm like WHOA what happened... *happy dance* LOVE it :) I can't do much of anything til I go for some tests tho so I need to be careful in working out which sucks cause I've been feeling better from being sick and want to work out and can't really do much of anything right now. Ah it'll work out tho :) Have a great weekend, we'll be going to mom's as soon as Dave gets back. My nephew's birthday party is tomorrow and we are taking Hunter with us. I realized after I posted that in my journal it was the wrong thing to keep him from going, I tried to reply to comments in my LJ but I can't (why I have no clue!) to reply to your question Both Hunter and Kaiden are 4 (will be 5 in June) and Dante is 4 months 10 days.

Woo that is great. I love losing weight without even trying. Go you! :)

I am glad you are taking the kiddo with you (well all of them!). It will all work out. Time is the healing factor and you just have to be patient...tap into the well of your patience.

I hate when LJ craps out. Really suckage.

[stephmariemarsh]

yes it does suck when LJ craps out. I hate how I sank $$ into this thing and it does it all the damn time plus I can't get any $$ back :( hate it.

I was like *puts on jeans* Hmm... *goes to button them and they fall down* WTH happened?! Go me! :D

Ah he is testing the well BIG time but he's been pretty good the last couple days :) Still gonna look into the support groups when we get back to Boston. It might help :)

That does sound like a fun night!

I'm so proud of your successful weight loss! You've really done a great job and been very diligent. Bravo!

[phyncke]

I think it will be fun! I have to figure out what to wear tho. Thinking about that.

I am very stoked about the weight loss and I am sure it is a permanent thing and that I won't rebound. I have made that life style change to healthy eating etc. Yays! :) I do have another stage to go but that will take time and I am very patient on that. Step by step.
