    Tor, anyone who knows you know how much you love Tobin and how well you take care of him. All those doctors know are black and white numbers, and they don't take into account things like some kids gaining weight faster than other, kids not being able to keep food down, etc. Don't let them stress you out or make you feel bad. You take wonderful care of your children, and Tobin is healthy and happy and loved. So that doctor can piss off.

    Also, I hope you feel better. :(

    How terrible! I'm so sorry that you were treated this poorly. You are a very kind person, and you deserve better friends than that.

    Less, that is SO uncool what they did. Please don't hibernate. Be mad, but don't retreat form the world. We aren't all like that.

    Tor, you know you are a good mom...screw everyone else

    Link, make it through class with battery?

    Sadly, my battery died BEFORE class began. Thankfully, the teacher was reviewing things I already knew about from first semester. :)

    Why hibernate? Fight back. If they did this to you, you should post the experience for all their "friends" to see. They will surely do the same thing to other innocent people who trust them. Let everyone know what kind of ethics these jokers possess. If they already violated your confidence, then there's nothing left to be embarrassed about, unload on em...both barrels!

    thank you hidden. I really appreciate the kind words. I'm feeling a bit better today thank you
    thank you Carmina. I really appreciate it.

    damn! At least things turned out alright though.

    I don't think lessa could do that to be honest. lessa has a heart of gold and one of the most wonderful, trusting and respectful people I've ever met online.
    Lessa, don't let them win. Don't allow them to upset you in any way. They want you to vanish offline, they want to hurt you, don't you let them get their way. Stand up strong and hold your chin up high. YOu are a lovely woman, amazing mother and grandmother, and a wonderful friend and loved by so many people. Screw them! You have all of us who are here to support you and give you strength should you need extra strength.
    You are much loved here and honestly, the forum is a much happier place with you back again. You have been desperately missed around here.
    Lots of love and hugs
    Sherie xxxx

    This advice I like......a lot. Revenge is usually not my modus operandi, but unload everything you've got on them. They deserve it for betraying your confidence like that. And you can't let them get you down like that. Standing up tall and showing them how strong you are will only make them look even more like the horrible jerks people they are.


    As for right now, I am moderately unhappy (not sad, not depressed, not hugely unhappy, just moderately unhappy) because of all the semester finals coming up next week Thursday the 21st and Friday the 22, and I just want them to be over with instead of all the endless speculation and talking about them. It annoys me to no end. Thank god the semester is over on the 22nd, though. I can finally drop my German class and start my biology, health (okay, not too psyched about THAT one, but I would prefer it to gym, at least for the first few months), Fashion and Textiles and study hall (in place of German--I'm looking forward to having an entire class period to do whatever I want at the end of the day! :D Just being able to relax and read for 55 minutes or do some work will be a huge relief, especially since it will be replacing the German class I hate so much.) classes. So, it's a curse and yet a blessing as well.

    Complacency rarely helps anyone. I agree with NaCl; go to war. Now, you have to pick your fights of course (something I have trouble doing on occasion) but like my dad says: "Sometimes boy, you just gotta represent." I'm not saying get in a fistfight (that would be wholly inappropriate for this situation and really, most situations) but fire back at them.

    Never take a threat lying down, unless of course lying down is what will hurt your foe and aid your cause the most. In this case though, give theb astards hell.

    I'm so sorry Ems. That's absolutely dreadful! :( *big hugs* (though that probably won't help a bit :( )

    A very close person to me had a seizure whilst over my house. It scared the **** out of me. Luckily my Aunt (a retired nursed) and my uncle, were there to help him through it. He's just gone back home with his Mum- I seriously hope he'll be okay. I'm so worried.

    My mom found him, but I went and looked at him with her. I just wish the ice would melt so we could get him out of there.

    No, I like hugs, very much so! Thank you Lydia!

    I'm very sorry Link, for you losing your first pet like that. It's sad.

    It almost makes things better though, because at least now we know what happened to him. Almost.

    Oh my god, Em. I'm so sorry! I hope your brother is taking it ok, I know he had a hard time when Link was lost. :(

    I hope your friend is alright, Zoe! How scary!

    Had a horrible day yesterday. All the things I've been aiming for have just collapsed completely and now I don't know where to go. :(

    My gosh! I hope that your friend is alright. I know how scary it can be to witness, I hope that you are alright as well. Big hugs darlen.

    Big hugs. I'm so sorry. It must be really hard seeing him like that and knowing he is stuck there.

    I'm really sorry Xeno, I hope that things improve for you.

    Dad called a friend of his and they got Link out of the pool. He's buried now. Mom cried, a lot. And Justin wasn't home.

    I have binged for three days straight and look like this guy:
    [​IMG]
    Jabba the Hut was not a nice man, and neither am I when I look as fat as I do and feel as disgusting as I do.

    Spoiler contains all the food I ate this weekend. I suck.
    An entire plain pizza (eight slices) from Domino's. I feel it's necessary to say that this was eaten over the course of three days, not all in one sitting.
    3 Zebra Cakes, Little Debbie brand.
    At least a quart of milk (skimmed at least).
    A cookie.
    3 diet Mountain Dews.
    2 diet 7-Ups.
    2 carrots (big carrots).
    1 cup green beans.
    1 red potato.
    God knows how many tortilla chips smothered in cheddar cheese and salsa.
    3 silver-dollar sized pancakes, complete with butter and syrup.
    3 Hawaiian rolls, buttered.
    I think that's it. I really hope that's it.

    What did I do to burn it off? Does watching all four football games and the US Figure Skating Nationals over two days count?

    I am already feeling really depressed about the body I spend my days in, and so the logical thing to do, of course, is to cut out one of the few joys in my life --that being comfort food. It makes total sense. :rolleyes: But if I dont start dieting now, well. I have to start dieting now.

    Otherwise I'll just be more miserable.

    I refer you to my blog if you care to see what I'll be eating and doing to exercise, as well as my goals.

    Merc, it's kind of funny...I was just about to post about what a horrible binge weekend I had and how fat I feel.

    I've got two weeks and two days to get my butt back in gear and be better about working out.

    I commented on your blog. :) I love you Mercy!


    Edit: Heather, I was too... I've eaten LOTS of junk recently.
