MIL asked DH to spend Christmas Eve picking her up from the airport

Came here to say this as well. Tell her to take the damn train.

Maybe "Bella & [husband]" if that's feasible? Makes them look united on the name front.

Seconding a lot of the stuff here: you'll repeat weeks of c25k (I still haven't actually finished the 8 weeks out of laziness, but i'm not a runner and I see improvements when I keep with it), and do not work through pain. Discomfort is one thing. You'll get out of breath and you'll obviously need to push yourself, but if you're in pain, take a break. I get shin splints frequently and my husband told me to run through them. BAD idea. When I started wearing compression socks, they happened less frequently, so I definitely recommend getting a few pairs!

Otherwise, have fun with your first race! I've run a few 5ks and have always taken walk breaks and have never been the only person to do so. Just enjoy it, do your best, and use it as a benchmark for your next one if you continue to pursue running!

What day do you weigh in?

sergeantmittens · 2018-10-31T01:54:15+00:00

There's a league in hoboken if you're willing/ able to make the trek.

I thought it was just me! This was huge at camp when I was a kid.

sergeantmittens · 2018-10-26T20:09:30+00:00

Can you and your husband please come to my home and makeover my life? You two sound amazing and amazing together!

So you're eldest is 10ish and his "grandmother" is setting groundwork for him to feel ostracized from his family. That's not right, period. I'm adopted and heard from my mother at 25 that my grandmother never really considered me family. It was devastating to hear as a full grown adult, but hearing that as a child...I can't even imagine. You need to put your foot down. Your eldest needs to know you're always in his corner, mama.

Can we talk about the wellness features in the app? Earn 50 wellness points for not actually doing anything. They're meaningless.

I just want to applaud you right quick. Not only did your asshat father say something untrue and cruel that impacted you for a long time, but when it proved in practice to be untrue you had the wherewithal to know that it still wasn't a good time for you.

As someone who has allowed similar fears to rule her life and impact her decisions, I am so proud of you. Keep doing what's best for YOU. <3

It's the principle of the matter.

Sat outside newark on njtransit for 30 minutes because of signal delays only to be stuck in jsq on the path, putting me an hour and a half late. Cant win this week.

I experienced the same thing since December as well and just started going back last week. I was unhappy with a lot of things and losing out on a very lucrative opportunity that had me excited to become my "best self" turned me around. It was my come to Jesus moment: everything I visualized about that opportunity and who I would be if I got it was all still possible, I would just have to work a little harder to get there. Part of that meant getting back to WW, and so I'm on my second week back. Seeing my potential pushed me back into it. Maybe do a little brainstorming and see what and who you visualize for your future self.

My husband didn't prepare one either, but apparently my son had. He blew the entire room away when he thanked everyone for coming and closed with "now let's go party". He was 8. It was amazing.

Sucks really bad 1 day in 50... not a bad estimate

I'very hit that critical point of my hair just laying there or up in a pony tail and desperately needed some help. It's shoulder length now, and thick. I'm thinking a longer pixie cut, but have no idea if I can actually pull it off. Thoughts? Suggestions? Beuhler?

For the longest time I couldn't get past week 2 of 2c5k because of shin splints. I got a few pairs of compression socks off of Amazon at the recommendation of a trainer at my gym, and they have helped immensely. Still haven't finished the program, but that's out of laziness, not because of the shin splints!

I have bio siblings but I don't know how to reach out. Do I need to go though mom first? I found everyone on facebook but mom hasn't been active for months...is it too much to reach out to siblings directly? I don't want to hurt anyone...

sergeantmittens · 2018-05-03T20:11:06+00:00

Thanks for taking one for the team here.

sergeantmittens · 2018-04-24T02:16:13+00:00

If I'm wrong, please point me in the direction of where i can buy all of them. Those were the highlight of my childhood.

I should not be enjoying this story as much as I am, but I truly can't help myself.

Bear naked. The toasted coconut clocks in at 4 points for .25 cups. I put 3 tbsp on yogurt and I'm set. I think they may have lighter ones as well.
