A few of you asked about the date, it fell through, I had stuff to get done, the guy called and was not able to come and I was actually kind of releived because I had so much other stuff to do.
I DO have a date tonight though with a different guy... we'll see how that goes - will report! LOL
Look at you being all cool with change of plans! I'm impressed!
I like the book "the rules" if you have not read it also like "the rules II" non alanon type stuff yet is kinda about detaching and how it makes you more attractive to men. they are both in paperback now.
If I ever date again I will at re-read and go by at least most of "the rules".
My daughter practiced them and wow what a difference it made.
Never give up! Hey I happen to know one of the sweetest guys on the face of the earth, next to my hubby. He does have a brother who's am A. He's tall, dark, handsome (no not Diva's Bad Bill ) and just a gem. He's finacially set. Loves the outdoors. Do you like to fish? But for some reason just can't find the right woman. Hmm... now I would snag him in a heartbeat if I didn't have my honey..... Instead I drool. You just look into his eyes and melt. (Yes, A knows about him!) I'd rather keep mine and have the fanasty. Besides we've known each other too long. However with you...... Okay, okay, but think about it! Let us know how it goes. Love and blessings to you and your family.
Live strong, Karilynn & Pipers Kitty

Date called to cancel right after I left work - car broke down... LOL I can't get a date to save my life. The funny thing is when I was younger I would sit by the window and wait and wait and stare down the driveway ... Now I'm of the ok whatever attitude. So I got home and took the kids to the pool and read my book.
Karilynn does your friend like fat girls???
I'm seriously thinking about having that band thing for weight loss. I have been fat my entire life and I always swore I would never do surgery but now I'm thinking I deserve to know how it feels to be skinny and cute, love shopping for clothes, have men ogling me, I don't wanna die never having experienced all of it! I could go on and on with the things I want to do and have never had because of the FAT...... Plus I'm young, in really good health and I want to do it before I start having health problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, bad knees and back, etc. etc. Dieting and exercising is not doing it for me!!!
CG You have a delusion about skinny girls! I have been skinny all my life... some say I'm attractive... But I usually do not believe them.
I hate shopping for clothes... men do not ogle me... I think it's all because I don't have big boobs. I dunno. I think about "getting" big boobs.... then, I think.... Why? So someone else will like me?!!! How codependent is that! If I can only get a date with big boobs, I am attracting something I don't want to attract.
I gotta keep coming here... to work on my thinking problem.
The goal is be HEALTHY... mind, body and spirit.
Love ya, CG

ya well, healthy body.... diet and exercise isn't working out real well. I don't think there's anything wrong with getting a little help when you need it and if big boobs make you feel great then I'd go get em right now LOL. I feel invisible, people don't even look at me because of the weight! I want to rejoin the world LOL.
Hey, Karri, maybe you could auction that guy off to make $$$ for MIP! I'll be single here in the near future....... Sure there are other ladies on here looking..... OMG! What am I DOING! I'm never ever ever going to get involved with a man ever again. 5 bad marriages, I sure ain't a lookin for #6. EEWWW. Unless, of course, it is Keith Urban. I'd get involved with him real quick. I can send Nicole off to Babies R Us shopping, and she'd be gone for HOURS! LOL (jk)
