  1. 235...went up 5 pounds in a week. That isn't good. monthos, I have tried losing weight before and so far in my life the only times it has stayed off is when I changed habits rather than just tried to lose weight. Changing habits usually led to about 1-2 pounds a week of weight loss. "Dieting" would result in more, but I'd always put that weight back on later.
  2. Shrop, I lost my dad nearly 3 years ago. I know it hurts. If you need to talk, jamesw@gmail.com
  3. I can wear a size 34 pants. They are a little too tight but I can wear them. I am wearing a size 36 now for the first time since I was a freshman in high school nearly 13 years ago.
  4. For people downloading from the official site and getting files that are too small. The site has been posting horrible speeds all day and timing out all day as well. I have not gotten higher than 70k/sec from the site while still getting 200+ from other sites. I have also been having timeouts all day but I use DownloadThemAll so I can resume the download. It's possible that you're timing out and your download thinks that it is finished.
  5. COME ON! I have lost 16 pounds in 7 weeks. Do you know what I did to lose it? Changed my eating habits again. A year and a half ago I weighed 298 pounds. Now I weigh 230 pounds. I've lost 68 pounds and have not done a THING besides changing my eating habits. That includes: - watching my portions - not eating certain things (soda, chips, sweets) unless it is in a very small amount...which ALWAYS satisfies my craving - eating healthier foods. I buy organic, I have a clementine for a snack (oh so GOOD!), I make my own food. You would not believe the health benefits of making yourself a gyro sandwich. It's a piece of cake too! Take 1 tub of yogurt. Add half to 3/4ths of a sliced cucumber. Add in 1 to 2 garlic cloves. Add dill. Some olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste. Blend it. Add feta cheese. Grill a piece of chicken. Slice it. Slice a tomato. Warm a pita pocket with some olive oil on a pan. Put one leaf of roma lettuce on the pita pocket. Put your "gyro sauce" (tzatziki) on that. Put your tomatoes and chicken on. Slice some more cucumber and put it on. Add feta cheese to taste. You now have a full meal in your hand that took probably 10 minutes to make (once you have the sauce blended) and the hardest part was turning on a blender. It's easy, tastes awesome and best of all...IS GOOD FOR YOU! The worst thing in that is the pita. I'm at 16 pounds lost. Are you people really telling me that you are going to give me $80 without a fight?
  6. Seriously...some of you guys who are married...tell us that this whole "free time" thing isn't true. Please.

    Hired!

    I can categorically guarantee that those two things had nothing to do with it.

    Hired!

    I has a job. Start next week (either Monday or Friday, not sure yet). SteadyRain.com I like being able to pay bills.
  9. Hard time in my life right now. A relationship with someone I love is falling apart through a combination of sins I have committed and sins they have committed. The hard part is that I screwed up worse and I refused to admit it. I admit it now and am actively seeking to repent and study God's word (I'm studying more and better than I ever have in my life) but they won't stop throwing it back at me. I don't know how to help them with something that is destroying their life when they can't get past what destroyed mine (and theirs by proxy). This is not someone I can abandon (nor want to). It is not someone I can just pray for and let it be. It is someone I am in daily contact with and who basically intertwines with my entire life. Please pray for me for patience and the continued desire to improve myself. Please pray for them for clarity and that God will speak with them (they feel that he isn't in any way...almost as if he is ignoring them)
  10. There is this brand that Walmart sells that claims to have a "lifetime guarantee". I can't remember the brand though but they're on my girlfriends car and after 6 months they're still working perfectly like new. So...there's that.
  11. Fortel's! (or Imo's or Cicil Whittakers if you like St. Louis Style)
  12. I have a Microsoft Ergonomic (4000) that is slightly used. Want to buy it for $40?
  13. logmein.com It's what I use! Easiest way to get things set up for Remote Desktop ever!
  14. Referrals get you 2 more free apps on Christmas day....although those 2 free apps might not be worth it.
  15. If you go to http://givingtree.macheist.com today you can get free software for your Mac. The two ones available today are Synergy (an iTunes remote app, meh) and Enigmo 2 (a 3D game that I have on my iphone and LOVE). On Christmas day, 2 more (unknown) will be available for download. If you refer two folks, you get 2 more pieces of free software. None of this software is free otherwise (Enigmo 2 is $20 normally) I already sent sj an invite so hopefully he helps me out and signs up. Maybe we can all use this post to make sure as many of us get free software as possible. SJ! Go sign up and send someone else an invite!

    Fired!

    In what way? I never touched Javascript but I knew C# so picking up Javascript was a piece of cake. It's like Portuguese and Spanish. Similar but different.
  17. I stuttered. Was 236 yesterday, but I'm 237 at official weigh in. 237.
  18. I have now officially lost 62 pounds since around October of 2007. The weirdest part...is that I have probably (being 100% honest here) worked out for probably no more than 3 hours time in that year and 2 months. Welcome to eating slightly better food and watching your portions.

    I already know the language (generally) for C because I do C# right now. What would you say I need to learn to do instead?
  20. You guys better get to work. Weighed myself this morning. 236.8 I'm already nearly 14 pounds lighter and I'm barely trying. Keep up pansies!
