Deborah's so called life.... - Page 3 - ThinnerTimes

Deb, I don't know you (cuz I'm a newbie), but I see that you are very frustrated, and I would be too. Anyway, I just wanted to put in my two cents. Did it every occur to you that you might be gaining muscle? Muscle weighs more than fat, thus you are probably losing fat but it doesn't show on the scale because your muscles are gaining. I know that's little consolation, but it could be part of what's going on with you.

It could also be what I call 'teenage daughter syndrome' (my heart goes out to you). My daughter is 19 (thank God), but from age 14 through 17 she made my life (and my husband's) a living hell. Stress will slow things down too. It could be a number of things. I hope its just temporary and things will start to kick in pretty soon.

P.S. My daughter lost her cell phone for the 3rd time a couple of weeks ago. I gave it to her for her birthday and told her if she lost it, she'd either have to use her brother's crappy old one or buy a new one herself. She has the crappy one. I glad I didn't recycle the old ones. The rebellion gets better with age, thankfully.

I'm going to see if i can see the nutritionist as well because something is wrong i should be loosing weight not stalling every frigin week! Most of my "big" clothes still fit fine which is very discouraging. Even people IRL are saying "i thought you had GB 5 months ago" i dont know what else to do

I'm starting to get those questions as well..or 'You done losing already?" "What happened, I thought you would get skinny" GRRRR. What I tell myself is that these questions are asked out of ignorance on their part and no reflection on me or what it is I'm doing. But it's hard to take when it comes at you over and over, I know

On another subject my 15 year old is being rebeling these days. Shes mad at me because she keeps breaking her cell phone charger and i refuse to spend another 20$ for a 4th one in like 2 months! Last night she left my car running on the battery while she was charging her phone but forgot to turn the car OFF when she took the phone. So the battery was running for 3 hours in the garage. Then i saw something on her myspace page and made her take it off. Man i just feel like running away some days i dont understand why the dumb scale seems to effect my everythougt.
Someone here said "when you were 250 + you never worried about what the number said, now we cant seem to get past that scale" so true

oh gosh Deborah! I just called my mom today asking her if I could run away to her house! I just want someone *else* take over the worry and stress for a little while.

Chin up.. she won't be 15 forever!

Hey Deb,
I'm so sorry to hear that the weight isn't coming off as fast as you want it to. God I know how frustrating that is. I'm also sick to my stomach for you about how your husband has been cheating on you. What a jackass. Get that evil out of your life ASAP because if you don't, he'll take you down with him. Also, as far as your daughter goes...make her buy her own cell phone charger. If she doesn't have a job...she needs to get one! lol

I hope that weight comes off..I'm praying for you.

P.S. - It's Myspace pages, internet chatting/meeting and rebellion that scare the shit out of me when it comes to having kids. I feel like we'd have to lock our bedroom door at night with a teenager in the house, with the way they act these days. And god forbid we should try to keep our daughter from a piece of crap boyfriend. Hell, it's just not safe..lol

she totally has to buy them

i just "advance her the money" from her allowance i give her (she was getting 35$ week for babysitting 2nites and her chores for me) but now i only give her 15 and i pay for the phone every month (since she was always late paying the bill ) and girl my husband i kicked him out in February and he still tries to get back with me saying he'll stop all contact with the "others" BS i aint playing that stupid mess anymore

Godsblessedme · 05-21-2008, 10:43 AM

haa i'm so totally glad i did not buy her a charger 2 days ago! because yesterday she dropped the phone in water! yeah Tekerya nice so i'm giving her my useless cheap phone and i bought a nice refurbished phone for me haaaa

Oh and because she cant seem to "hide" the scale good enough i just took it back and now i will try not to weigh myself more than 1x a week. Although i've been on it 3 times this week trying to see if the stall will be broken. and as usual its not. i have no clue whats wrong with me and i know everyones tired of my complaining stalls but i dont understand it.

anyhoo its nice and windy here in AZ hoping it doesnt go above 85 today since yesterday was 114 here. That is like a slow cooking tempature NOT a temp for a city

mistymee · 05-21-2008, 04:20 PM

Deb, I'll listen to you complain about your stalls.. feel free to message me, if you're worried about that!

My scaled moved an incredibly small .5 lb today. I guess it's something to celebrate all things considered..but. UGH.. I *so* know what you are feeling. {hugs}

OMG why am i such an idiot! So Whitneys stuff had me thinking that i could peek at Ray's email. Not that i should care because we're separted since Feb. SO i discovered his password wow he is sending and recieving messages from the women at that blackpeoplemeet website. i am just floored with the stuff he wrote. like one "Dear ____, i loved our conversation with you the other nights i think about you all the time and i am dreaming about spending thanksgiving with you. I think my search for a real woman has ended blah blah blah"

Ok so stop trying to GET BACK WITH ME! And so i went further and looked up the womens profiles they are BUTT UGLY ! Seriously they look like fat gorillas! He is so gross to me now i wont even take any calls from him except to talk about my $$ everyweek and his kids

I'm floored what a scum bag! When he calls (because he always does) i'm going to tell him to hurry up and file for divorce i'm trying not to "let on" that i've checked phones, emails, websites and what not but OMG its so tempting! but see then he'll change his password and i cant be having that! Its 1130 at night and i'm never up this late but i'm so mad and actually hurt because my instinct tells me that its really over. Just to hear him say those words to other women and NOT tell them he's married i so badly want to email them and tell them hes still married but i'm not going to why waste my energy. i'm rambling and its late i just had to vent
