I Lost 80 Pounds in 8 Months

by JLOB in

i lost 80 pounds in 8 months on a low fat diet.

i beilive the only true way to gain a heathy body is the old fashion method of eating less and moving more.

if everyone would eat a well balanced diet and exercise regularly then there would not be such a huge market for diet ripe off programs.

That is fantastic..

It is such an encourgement for me aswell.. I am currently trying to get into a new way of life with healthy eating and exercising more....

I will keep reading your post when I get discouraged.

i don't know if everyone knows, but my boyfriend (alex) bought me a health club membership for my birthday(i asked for one).

so, the package deal he got was a buy 1yr get 2 free deal including 5 free personal training sessions.

well, the first one was easy---------------measurements,weighing in,goals,new diet, and so forth.

Evil CO's wives

by PopeOfEruke in

does anyone remember particularly evil wives of circuit overseers?.

i remember one, a little chinese "lady" known as norma.

absolutely hated kids.

I remember a CO and his wife that I hated!

His name was Eric Rosavere and we all called him Eric Sosevere. He was nasty and short tempered.

His wife wasnt much better. I hated working with her out in the field. she got me pulled up in front of the elders because I "apprently" said that a single brother was my "pioneer partner".

Hey we only had 3 pioneers in the congregation and the only other female did all her witnessing by herself.

Ones that I will never forget for being the most caring and understanding is Conrad and Julie Mack. they were lovely!!!!!!!! conrad died a few years ago of a masive heartache. I was so upset.

i haven't been 'on' as my dad died 12/21 suddenly, before that i was about to do the 'lawsuit thing' to see my granddaughter, then 2 days ago my mother was rushed to the hospital and has had a mild stroke...i am totally out of it...but i do have 'good news'.. i'm going to see my granddaughter!!!!!

turns out, thru all of what's happened lately, i found out that my jw sister lied to my daughter 2 years ago, and she wasn't shunning me, she was upset about the fact my sister lied to her (causing this!
