Crappy, I got the results of my blood test and my thyroid id not to blame. Now it seems like I have been doing a lot of hard work (exercising an hour per day and eating things I don't like) for nothing. According to everyone (my doctor, dietician , weight loss web sites) I should be losing 2 pounds per week and right now I'm lucky if its 1 per month with 69 left to go.:🙁:

Have you had your tetanus vaccination ?

Those are kind nasty! I got a welt the size of a quarter on my arm from it that took about a week to go away. Hopefully Weirdy doesn't need one! 😮

I must be tough no bruises on my arm. 😀

Are you on any medication? Could that be the case?
Maybe once your body gets into the habit of what you're doing, it will get into the zone. Also, I just read something about testing to see which one your body handles best for weight loss, fats, carbs, and protein. Try a high protein/fat diet and then try a high carb diet (same calories) and see if your body handles it differently, in your metabolism perhaps? Sometimes our metabolisms just suck at metabolizing certain things. random things to throw out of my mind for suggestions 😛

Pretty good. I asked a question in class, which was a nice change of pace. I'm earning those participation points! Woo-hoo! On a side note, it's crazy hot here, and I'm not enjoying that.
^ Nice job! I never ask questions in class either, I'm terrified. Sometimes I'll wait to see the teacher after class, if I'm able to push my anxiety out of the way. Otherwise I do my own research and see if I can help myself.

My grandma may be going in for another surgery on Friday. She is supposed to have the plaque taken out of the arteries around her heart. But they keep trying to stand her up on her new hip and she keeps fainting, so she isn't getting enough blood flow to the brain as it is. If they do the surgery on Friday, we'll be back at the "she's at a high risk for a heart attack" thing again. I wish they would put it off, but she can't just lie in bed until her hip heals. It's a catch 22.
^ Yikes, I'm sorry to hear about that. All the best to your grandmother. I hope she gets well soon.

That must be very irritating.

Well done. I should do this too.

Good job! I never asked questions in class. I was always too afraid. And it's hotter than Hades' butt-crack here as well.

I've been slightly on edge since my doctor took me off of the Gabapentin. I feel irritated frequently and I want to kill people for no good reason. Of course being surrounded by my family all day at the hospital a couple of days ago didn't help.

I hope she gets well soon and hope you feel better as well.

Feeling apathy- would really like to have a boyfriend and just lay on the couch together; not talking.

Feel like s**t! Depressed. Things are getting worse. Found out yesterday that one of my uncles has cancer... again (it's back for the 3rd time). And it's my auntie's funeral on Monday.

Happiness seems rather temporary at the moment, since things are pretty f***in' bleak for me right now. :🙁:

Sorry to hear that Graeme, I hope you get some good luck soon, everyone deserves a little bit of happiness.

^ Ohhh, I've known family members to do that. Yeah, it is irritating. I also find it funny that I went through a phase as a kid where all I did was stomp or scuff my feet rather than walk like I should. I blame body changes and what little growth spurts I managed to get. Now I walk so quietly you hardly hear me. I've actually scared my brother and my mom more than once just showing up in a room or next to them and they didn't hear me come in. :😛:
I should put these abilities to better use...

I'm feeling lonely this morning.
You know. That feeling you get once your friends leave and you didn't really hang out or talk all that long the day before? Not to mention you feel ridiculously inferior to one of them, no matter where you are, but you love hanging out with them anyway because they're such a great person. Yeah, it hurts.
I feel awful for feeling awful whenever I'm around this particular friend. My self-confidence sucks and I don't know what to do about it. At all.

I know how you feel Phoenixx, I have such one particular friend too. I love them but I can't help but feel inferior whenever I'm around this person. I'm sorry, I hope you feel better soon. *hugs*

Have you had your tetanus vaccination ?

I know I had one in highschool... which would mean either 9 or 10 years ago.
And I'm making myself paranoid because if it was 10 years ago-- don't they expire?

I'm pretty sure my doctor would've caught me up the last time I saw him a couple months ago, though.
...or maybe I'll become paralyzed and die?
It'll be a suprise!! 🙄
