Subject: Fw: Anger Management: > Anger Management: When I have the occasional bad day and need to >take it out on someone, I don't take it out on my loved ones anymore... > I got the idea one day when I was sitting at my desk and remembered a >phone call I had forgotten to make. I found the number and dialed it. A >man answered, saying, "Hello." I politely said, "This is Chris. May I >please speak with Robin Carter?" Suddenly, the phone was slammed down on >me. I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude. I tracked down Robin's >correct number and called her. I had transposed the last two digits of >her phone number. After hanging up with her, I decided to call the 'wrong' >number again. When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled, "You're an >asshole!" and hung up. I wrote his number down with the word 'asshole' >next to it, and put it in my desk drawer. Every couple of weeks, when I >was paying bills or had a really bad day, I'd call him up and yell, "You're >an asshole!" It always cheered me up. When Caller ID came to our area, >I thought my therapeutic 'asshole' calling >would have to stop. So, I called his number and said, "Hi, this is John >Smith from the Telephone Company. I'm just calling to see if you're >interested in the Caller ID program?" He yelled, "NO!" and slammed the >phone down. I quickly called him back and >said, "That's because you're an asshole!" One day I was at the store, >getting ready to pull into a parking spot. Some guy in a black BMW cut me >off and pulled into the spot I had patiently >waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I had been waiting for the spot. >The idiot ignored me. I noticed a "For Sale" sign in his car window, so I >wrote down his number. A couple of days later, right after calling the >first asshole, (I had his number on speed dial ), I thought I had better >call the BMW asshole, too. I >said, "Is this the man with the black BMW for sale?" "Yes, it is." >"Can you tell me where I can see it?" "Yes, I live at 1802 West 34th >Street. It's a yellow house, and the car's parked right out in front." > "What's your name?" I asked. "My name is Don Hansen," he said. > "When's a good time to catch you, Don?" "I'm home >every evening after five." "Listen, Don, can I tell you >something?" "Yes?" "Don, you're an asshole." Then I >hung up, and added his number to >my speed dial, too. Now, when I had a problem, I had two >assholes to call. But after >several months of calling them, it wasn't as enjoyable as it used to be. >So, I came up with an idea. I called Asshole #1. "Hello." "You're an >asshole!" (But I didn't hang up.) "Are you still there?" he >asked. "Yeah," I said. "Stop calling >me," he screamed. "Make me," I said. "Who are you?" he >asked. "My name is Don Hansen." "Yeah? Where do you >live?" "Asshole, I live at 1802 West 34th Street, a yellow house, >with my >black Beamer parked in front." He said, "I'm coming over right >now, Don. And you had better start >saying your prayers." I said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, >asshole." Then I called Asshole #2. "Hello?" he said. > "Hello, asshole," I said. He yelled, "If I ever find out >who you are!" "You'll what?" I said. "I'll kick your >ass," he exclaimed. I answered, "Well, asshole, here's your >chance. I'm coming over right now." Then I hung up and immediately >called the police, saying that I lived at1802 West 34th Street, and that I >was on my way over there to kill my gay >lover. Then I called Channel 2 News about the gang war going down on >West 34th Street. I quickly got into my car and headed over to >34th street. There I >saw two assholes beating the crap out of each other in front of six squad >cars, a police helicopter, and a news crew. NOW, I feel better. >This anger management stuff really works! See Ya!

Mine did not know what the band was but I really just said I am doing this for me and I supported you when you had your heart Surgery now it is my time. I did and do include him in the pre and post op process of what I am going through so that he feels he is part of my journey. That way he really does not have to feel left out.

Good Idea for you to go slow on your recent fill. I myself do a mixture of milk and 100% whey 23 grams of Protein but I am thinking of adding already made to my grocery list since I hate to take the time to mix it.. What is exactly on Solids are you eating that are causing you to PB?? Hope you do not have to be unfilled just hang in there and see if you loosen up a bit.

Just watched it last night for the first time. Wow what an upset for the men thinking they were going to vote Stephanie off. The look on their faces said it all. Was Janu having a hard time or what?? Why would she leave??

Congrats Tina:)

I am so Happy for you. That is truly awesome:)

Cannot help sorry I'm as Guilty as sin. I have a bowl (big bowl) everynight I try and resist but cannot seems I just crave it.

Feeling Stressed Out? Picture yourself near a stream. The water is so clear that you can see the bottom. The sweet aroma of beautiful flowers is surrounding you. Birds are softly chirping in the warm spring air. Just close your eyes and think of the solitude. Nothing can bother you here. No one else knows this secret place. You are in total seclusion from that place called "the world." Now Take A Look! You can easily make out the face of the one whose head you're holding under the water. It's the person who caused you all this stress in the first place. What a pleasant surprise. You let him up ... just for a quick breath, Then plop! Back under he goes! ... You allow him as many deep breaths as you want. There now ... feeling better?

As I kept gaining weight my husband always would say that I looked healthy and he loved the way I looked. When he sees pictures of when I use to be thin he says I looked sickly so yes In certain cultures to be curvacious is greatly appriciated.. I just thought all my brother inlaws on my Husbands side are married to very curvy women. Now I am the smallest of them:) go figure

Kuddos to you:) mumm egg salad sounds good. Good job on your loss

WoW that is tough but I would have to say I agree with CarmelDiva as long as you approach it in a non negative way hopefully they will see what they are doing to him.. My neice is pretty chunky and in 1st grade the other kids are already teasing her and it just breaks my heart to see her cry but her parents are no help even though they see it.. So Sad

Congrats Romona Wishing you a speedy recovery:)

I use to get the pain in the back around my bra line. Seems if I eat to much it will hurt there for a bit untill the food goes down. Does this happen after you have eaten??? But again like Alex says ask your doc and see what he thinks

You sound a lot better Dallas keep on going you are right on track.

We learn as we go. I speak from experince that same thing happened to me. Sorry that happend hope you feel better.

Yep I do want to keep my Curves I think a women with Curves is more attractive. I think around a size 14 to 12 is good..

My Condolances to the whole family thiers and Yours Penni.

Here is another one I am around the same age as the above and one night a group of us are out partying ane pass by a public pool. Well this night I have on a new pair of 29 waist levi's anyway we jumped the fence and I thought I was brave mind you so I climbed up the high diving board and jumped off. Let me tell you 2 things never every do that if you do not know how to swim but can only dog paddle. Second Levi's get tight in water had to take them off when I at last could get to the surface and just float around after swallowing half the pool. That night I had on my multi colored underwear the guys never forgot tell you that much.

Dont' stress from what someone else chose to do. If the RNY was for you I'm sure you would have chose it. You made the decision to get the Lap and don't second guess yourself for making that choice instead Pat yourself on the back. You only just started on your Journey with your band so think positve about it. Some chat rooms I stay away from when welcoming a new person they berate them on the choice they made. We are all in the same boat as wanting to lose weight and get healthy they should not push their choice on someone else.

Ok hear goes I went with some cousins when I was 17 up to swim at the lake. I climbed up on this Boulder and thinking no one could see me proceeded to take off my top. Well the boulder slanted and the side I decided to lay on was facing the lake needless to say they all got a perfect view of me laying topless. I was so embarressed when my cousin came up and told me but so proud of not having a tan line.

I hear you my so called target weight is 115 to 120 not in this life time. I would be to boney. Anyway my goal is 160 not to far from it but I like the way I am now just have to tone up a bit.

How are you doing so far??

How did I miss this.. Humm Hope you had a very good day.. May you having many a blessings come your way this year and always.
