Ok, I know it's obnoxious to do this, and I apologize, but I can't help it.
As of this AM, I have lost 26.6lb.
And today, for the first time in as long as I can remember, my BMI is 'normal', and not 'overweight'. I still want to lose some more, but... I'm really excited.
All this #$%^& salad and not-drinking is apparently working. ;)
Funny thing- this psycho cow
has suddenly re-entered the picture, and is throwing around her standard "she is crazy. Tell her to go on jenny craig or something."
I finally responded to her. I said more or less
'you stupid bitch,
It's been months, and that's the best you can do? Jenny craig?
Which is ironic, since as far as I know you're about twice as big as I am.
Is your sad little life with your new fiance so empty and unfulfilling that you have nothing better to do than attack strangers on the internet?
Get a life."
She of course freaked out, called me fat and crazy, and said she wished I'd sent that to her directly so she could report me to facebook for abuse.
I'm finally realizing that she's just nuts. Simple as that. irrational and nuts.
In other news... I met a cute boy!! (in person!! a friend brought him as his guest to this dinner I went to, and we got to chatting.)
It's kind of exciting.
We've been talking.
Maybe dinner this week.
We'll see. Trying not to be too excited, b/c I'm sure it will blow up in my face and he'll turn out to be nuts, but... for now... the butterflies are fun. :)
Oh- and I just finished my last call at BGH, and am NEVER ON OVERNIGHT CALL IN THE HOSPITAL EVER AGAIN. EVER!!
Not to mention I'm done with the hellhole that is BGH.

end of an era?Well, for the first time in my life, I have gotten NOTHING for my birthday from my family.
I mean, they sent me on vacation, and that was my bday gift, so I certainly can't complain... but mom has always sent SOMEthing. Some sort of care package with little goofy stuff in it, so that I have "something to open" on my actual birthday.
And this year...
Nothing.
I didn't even get a card.
Growing up sucks.

Sorry, I'm an asshole.
I didn't mean at all to say that I'm not grateful for my trip. It wasn't at all about wanting presents. I was just sad b/c this was the first time in my life my mom didn't send me some sort of little package just "to have something to open".
But, when I talked to them on my birthday- They all felt so guilty and awful and apologized a million times- that I feel like an asshole (again) for even being sad about it.
And, thanks for all the birthday wishes everyone. :)

I am always surprised that birthdays are such a big deal here... Heh I never really had a "birthday realization" till I came here.
Wish you a rocking year ahead, (e:jenks)! Hope your fellowship turns out everything you want it to be and a ton more exciting! :)

I find that highly amusing :) So, I am light years behind on reading and completely missed the part where you're moving! Well, I e-mailed you asking about stuff but haven't gotten the scoop yet. Anyhoo...does this mean you can't come to the wedding :(

Hey congrats on the diet and on the new romantic interest! Nothin better than that in the springtime!!
You can fix "fat" but you can't fix "crazy" so it seems she is shit out of luck.
Wow, 26 pounds is a lot. I wish I could have gained that much in the same amount of time.
I so far haven't had any problems on Facebook. I have ideas of what happened or what started things. My guess is that she knows someone who doesn't like you and that is what started things or shows knows one of your ex's or something. I assumed that on facebook you could just ignore people. In terms of the dropping of the pounds congrats. I hope you continue to do so and continue to I assume eat healthier. Good luck with the boy.
Congrats on all fronts. In regards to the psychopig, you can't win with the nutjobs, but you can tell her that even the Zoo has no room as all the hippo cages are full.
