Confessions

Nebb · February 2012

I just found out that the first day to buy tomato plants from the farm I get them from (over 300 varieties to choose from, all heirloom) isthe same day as my friends wedding and I started to have something of a mild panic attack over it and for a split second considered not going to the wedding lol. Tomatoes are important!! You?

ewhiteman06 · February 2012

I'm signed up for this half marathon and an 8k one month before the half and I honestly just want to give up.

Oh and despite really trying to lose weight, I ate an enormous piece of chocolate cake yesterday. blah

VeggieLove1022 · February 2012

We just sent an email inquiring about a dog in need of rescue without having our living situtation completely figured out. I just asked if she was still available and how much the adoption is so I guess it's not bad, but I just feel guilty about even looking at puppies without being in the apartment yet. Hopefully we're in the new place within a week. I'm slightly already in love with her and she's all I could think about last night. I hope she's still available. We've missed having a dog if you can't tell

Here's some pictures of her......

musicalsunlight · February 2012

Oh mygosh VegLove. She is so adorable.

maratea · February 2012

So, I need to get this off my mind. For a long time, I've wanted a breast lift. Not implants, a lift. My breasts are saggy, always have been, it's genetic I'm pretty sure, and I'm self-conscious about them when naked. But I didn't want to do it until I lost weight because I lose weight in by chest first. I told H last night that I'm lacking motivation to work out and get in shape. H encouraged me to start going and said that if I reached my goal weight, he'd pay for me to get a boob lift.

So I'm starting the gym next week. I feel ridiculous that my motivation to get healthy is perky boobs. But I am excited.

Nebb · February 2012

Boob lifts have always freaked me out cause of how the nipples look after. I hate my areolas so I don't think I could ever do it.

chelseamb11 · February 2012

I confess that I'm slightly terrified that the world is going to get pissed off enough at the U.S. and we're going to be attacked to the point of very few of us surviving because nobody will want to help us. I also confess that I find this extremely possible in our lifetimes, which scares me even more.

celticmyss · February 2012

I'm having a hard time dealing with the news that my last serious bf just got someone pregnant. I have zero interest in being with him but it just weirds me out. Partly because he is so hush hush about even being in a relationship on FB. I wonder if he is dating one person and got someone else pregnant?

Our relationship didn't work for a ton of reasons and I ended things with him after living together for 2 years and talking seriously about marriage, etc. He was almost immediately dating his sister's best friend and I strongly suspect he was sleeping with her before we broke up but lacked the balls to break up with me. A few months into our relationship I learned that he had had a gf when he was first pursuing me so it seems to be a trend with him.

In my rational mind I know that nothing he does matters and I am so much happier in my life now but it still just leaves me with an odd feeling.

I think the issue may be that it makes me doubt my own fertility. He is the second of two ex-bfs to get someone pregnant within 2 years of us breaking up. I didn't want to get pregnant with either of them and actively avoided it but a small part of me wonders if I am just infertile. I don't want kids so that shouldn't bother me but it would still make me said if that were true.

Push-ups and pseudo bench presses, my friend. I have pretty sizeable breasts, especially compared to the rest of my body, and try to keep them perky by working out in gerneral, but making sure to do pectoral exercises every time I lift weights. They do work, or at least are allowing me to fight gravity!

I'm also thinking of doing a lift/reduction after we have kids. Hopefully insurance will cover it, or by that time I'll have a reason for insurance to cover it.

A boy sent me flowers for my birthday!

This has never happened before.

Edit: This is a confession because very few people IRL know about this boy for a multitude of reasons.

I am excited for you mara, but don't feel ridiculous. People have all sorts of different motives for losing weight or working out :) The bottom line is you're doing this to feel better about yourself and in the end that's really important. It can change your entire outlook on life.

Working out can be really, really NOT fun sometimes. The only reason (besides my health) that I do it is because I am vain as all hell.

<div>This is way more common than you think. Well, at least I know several people that have had this arrangement. And I don't think you should feel ridiculous at all. You're doing two things will make you feel great about yourself.</div><div>
</div><div>Confession: I have a photo that was taken at my bridal shower with all of my BMs sitting on my desk at work. I look at it and want to cry because I feel like I'm so much fatter than I was at that time. H says he doesn't see a difference in me now and at the wedding but I swear I do. He thinks I need to talk to someone about my obsession with my weight and food and exercise. I know he's right, I just don't want to be judged.</div>

AllAboutTheBenjamin · February 2012

Oh and YAY on the flowers, smash

I found out recently that my ex has an online dating profile. My good friend told me this, because apparently one of her other friends was matched with him and she found that my friend was friends with my ex on FB.

Heh, heh. I'm happy and he's alone.

...That sounded mean, but whatever. He sucks.

SarahPLiz · February 2012

Mara,

Raz has offered to pay for lipo for me if I want it, because I've had so much trouble losing and I feel horrible about my body most of the time. He doesn't care one way or the other but he wants me to feel good about myself (which translates in to more sex for him, but whatever). When we are done having kids, I'm doing it. Definitely. And I'm getting a breast lift too. Don't feel bad.

Nebb · February 2012

It pisses me off how much the dog loves adam and tries to come between us. The other night were were on the bed (me laying down, adam sitting facing me) and the dog came up and wiggled onto his lap, then tried nudging adams hand off mine and onto himself, then laid down next to me and fucking kicked me, twice. The little bastard kicked me!!

AllAboutTheBenjamin · February 2012

<div>Mara, there's not a damn thing wrong with that. I was just doing research on breast implants yesterday. I want them. I always have. And, assuming I pass the bar exam, I might just buy myself some. People are going to judge me, but eff them.</div>

specialk84 · February 2012

I also really want a breast lift.

I went to the gym today and worked out really hard (for me--I'm so out of shape it's ridiculous). On the way home, I stopped at the Chinese buffet and nearly ate my weight in crab rangoon. Diet fail.

AllAboutTheBenjamin · February 2012

I hate that, specialk. Sometimes after I work out like a fucking maniac nothing tastes more satisfying than a huge bowl of ice cream. I want to be bulimic for five minutes immediately after I eat it.

shaydenise · February 2012

Smash, I am right there with ya' with the implants! First my eyes get fixed.... then bring on the boobs!

I told H when we started dating that at some point I'd be getting implants and if he had a problem with it then oh well. Obvs he did not have a problem ha ha.

musicalsunlight · February 2012

Aw, see and watching J give lots of love and attention to Tory makes me feel super happy and all fuzzy inside.

[QUOTE]I'm 95% sure I'm getting braces in July and am scared that people are going to make fun of me for having them as an adult. I also have to have 4 teeth pulled so everything aligns correctly. My teeth are pretty straight, but I have TMJ and the braces will help correct it. We will probably pay more so I can get the clear ones across my top teeth so they don't show as much. I am really mad at my parents for not pushing me to get them as a teen. I told them no when I was a kid and now I'm mad as hell that I have to pay for them myself. I have considered asking them to pay for them and I know how bad that sounds.
Posted by ILoveMilkDuds[/QUOTE]
My mom had braces as an adult, and I don't think anyone made fun of her. If anyone even mentioned them, it was to ask her questions about them because they had thought about getting them. She had the clear ones on top and regular ones on the bottom. Go for it!<div>

Posted by kodakitty[/QUOTE]

Why do they do this?! My H does the same thing with the cat. He knows the cat loves him more. He carries the cat to me, knowing the cat will just jump off me to run back to him. I cant stand the rejection.

I'd get another cat (which I want) but our cat now is too mean, and it would just be another cat for H to steal!

I know its crazy, but it drives me nuts.

shaydenise · February 2012

Duds that's exactly how I feel about my wisdom teeth and braces. For one thing, if my wisdom teeth had been taken out when I was in high school, I wouldn't even fvcking need braces. And I have to have a bone graft when I do get them out because they grew through my sinuses so it's even more expensive. When I told my mom she was like, "Well you said you didntt want them removed when you were younger." Really mom, becuase I always got my way as a child...
