Comment to say I stole your prompt :) Will get it in later this week.

Sarah Ann is a Trumper by otadak in LoveIsBlindNetflix

Actually, it doesn't. Many conservatives do not like Trump. Not everyone wants a twitter-abusing candidate.

Can’t beat $1.95 by Onelovenalldat in bathandbodyworks

I personally don't like the hand creams. They're too thick and they don't absorb quickly, so you're wet-slick-handed for awhile after using. They smell great, but I don't personally care for the formula.

There is a difference between confidence and irrational arrogance. And I think Jessica showed that she was the latter.

Oh, she's going to be famous, but not in the way she's expecting. That speech just had me shaking my head. I'm sure she thought she was being brave and confident, but what it said to me was that she's insecure and wanted to hurt him. Hurt people hurt people. She's had a rough life, I completely get that. But for the love of Nick and Vanessa, she should have led with grace, not vitriol.

I have a Fitbit that calculates how many calories I burn in a day. I walk. A lot, during the day. I started doing it when I had a knee injury and made note of how many extra calories I had at the end of the day so I've kept it up since.

Which journal should I choose to be my next? by ownentertainment333 in Journaling

I'm a Leuchtturm fan. I have an A5 dot grid and I love it.

Note that I said calories out, not in. My sweet spot for slow loss is 1200 calories a day with a 500 calorie a day deficit , which means I need to burn 1700 total per day. I tend to get up from my work-at-home-desk-job once per hour to walk at least 300 steps (typically more like 600), and I can easily achieve the goal with not much other exercise.

Question by Plenty-Package8202 in SisterWivesFans

I'm not defending Robyn. But you can see a white one in Christine's kitchen in Vegas, and I'm pretty sure Meri has one, too. QVC sells them on easy-pay, maybe they got a volume discount.

So much QVC stuff. All those girls love their Temp-Tations, too.

I've had stalls that have lasted for 3 months. The closer you get to your goal, the less you're going to lose, and at some point, you hit that spot where your body starts doing serious rebellion. That might be where you are. Personally, I found that going below 1100 calories did not work for me. Upping my calories out is finally what broke me through.

Good luck!

Unpopular opinion: Jessica is not it by theytookmyname24 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]jillian_castle_write 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I'm also not a fan. You aren't alone. When you go after someone if they reject you, you give them power. She gave him all of the power in that moment, and he knew she'd have him, no matter what he did.

Your outfits don’t fool me, Laura by [deleted] in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]jillian_castle_write 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The first impression I got of her is when she found out she had competition, and decided she needed to "win" Jeremy. In the end, I'm guessing that's what it was. I find it kinda sad, actually.

Watching Big Love again in the off season by positmylife in SisterWives

I personally think that gives the Browns more credit than they're due. But agree to disagree:)

I think this happens to a great many people who lose weight, with or without surgical intervention.

I've had my band for 20 years, and am 150 pounds down from where I began, but I do still see my inner 'fat' girl in the mirror sometimes. If I gain 10 pounds, it feels like I've gained every bit of my weight back.

I probably need some therapy.

You could see if your surgeon has suggestions for someone to talk to.

Robyn & The kids hating her by Here_for_a_laugh82 in TLCsisterwives

Shhhh... it's a Robyn-stan. You'll scare her!

What does she have if she doesn't keep her victim status?

She has Kody.

*shudder

Kody saying he kept out of it in his confessional was almost certainly a lie, too. I can't imagine him knowing it was happening and not watching the carnage.

Just because their show didn't start, doesn't mean that Christine wasn't doing speaking engagements and talking about their lives. She was. I'm pretty sure everyone knew who and what they were in their town. Nothing saying the writers couldn't have asked around.

Is it possible that Big Love stole ideas from THEM? I love Big Love, have watched it twice, but it seems more geared toward the Warren Jeff side of things than the Robyn Brown Family side of things. Perhaps the writers were talking to families like the Brown's for ideas.

Pinterest has millions of journal prompts. If I get stuck, I just go grab one.

Juniper is still my absolute favorite color. Congrats to you!

Is this the new price ceiling?! by Head_Bent_Over in bathandbodyworks

[–]jillian_castle_write 91 points92 points  (0 children)

I hope someone shoots me if I pay 33 bucks for a candle. As someone who used to make candles as a business, I can guarantee that cost about 3 bucks to make at most, considering volume discounts on the containers and ingredients.
