I tried it along with some other stuff that I saw an ad for online. I got the trial shipments and then cancelled them. Didn't work. I have been doing Advocare for 3 weeks, and it doesn't work very well for me either. I can quit eating altogether and still not lose weight. I only eat healthy now. Haven't had anything good to eat in over 3 weeks. At first, I lost 6 pounds, but haven't lost any more. In fact I've gained 3 pounds and still only eat healthy stuff that I really dont like. I have no idea what to do to lose this weight. I'm getting very frustrated!!

I always get charged tax on groceries.

This is not exactly the same thing, but it's along the same lines and really pisses me off!! I heard on the news this morning that if you get unemployment you now get Medicaid. I work my A$$ off every day and my company doesn't provide anything but catastrophic coverage. I can't even go to the doctor if I'm sick. I've been at this company for 15 years and am thankful I have a job but I don't think that Medicaid should be provided to everyone just because they don't have a job when so many people who do have a job don't have adequate coverage.
I also feel that a lot of people who don't pay their bills anyway will get a break because of the Citi Group cut in mortgage payments. I agree with the poster who said the ones who do pay their bills on time should get a break of some sort.
It just amazes me how those who just sit back and do nothing seem to get everything handed to them on a silver platter.

I was very impressed with Lil. She definitely deserves to move on. I wasn't impressed by any of the guys. The girl who sang the Martina McBride song was cute but really didn't do the song justice. I think she could have picked a better song.

Jason didn't have anyone decent to choose from. All 25 of these girls were nothing compared to some of the other ones on previous shows. Both Melissa and Molly are nothing but bimbos. They are both way too young and immature to handle a situation involving a guy with a child. When he chose Melissa, she acted like a junior-high school girl. She sure didn't act like a mature woman who had won the love of her life. I could care less how Melissa or Molly feel. I never felt like they were in it for the right reasons. My heart broke for Jillian. She was the most decent and deserving one on the show.
I believe you can fall in love with someone in that short of a time. My ex-in-laws married 6 weeks to the day that they met and have been married for almost 50 years. It hasn't been perfect, but they've stayed together and it's worked for them. I know a lot of people who knew each other for very short periods before they married and have wonderful marriages. I know others who dated for several years and the marriage only lasted a few months. I believe it's all about the maturity level of the two people involved, what they are really looking for, what their expectations are, and honesty between them. Trista and Ryan met on the Bachelorette and are married with one child and another on the way.
I will be very surprised if Jason and Molly last. I personally have to give Jason credit for seeing the error of his wasy. In my opinion, why drag it out if it's not what you want. I don't see any reason for staying with someone if you don't want to be with them. If he wants Molly and can make it work, good for him. But I think she'll be the one to break his heart. She's no better than Melissa.
I'm looking forward to Part 2 of After the Final Rose. It should be interesting.

I cannot imagine the heartbreak that this family is going through. My heart goes out to them along with many prayers.

Paulding has been know to close the schools just because it was cold. They'll probably close the schools if there's even a little snow still left.
I remember one time when they were closed for about a week, and the snow was long gone!! I never did understand that!!
Personally, I hope the roads freeze and stay frozen just long enough for me to have a snow day. I have to go all the way to Cobb Parkway and Terrell Mill Road. I'm not risking my life or anyone else's!!!

Does Alison wear a wig or is that her real hair?!?!?!?
I was a little disappointed that Megan didn't make it.

The very first thing I'd do is call in to work rich!!!! Then I'd go remove all my personal items from my office. Then we would buy some land and build our dream house. I'd make sure my two daughters, my step-daughter, and my grandchildren were taken care of financially and would never have to work. I would build an animal shelter where the animals would always have a place to live if they were not adopted. I'd also give money to help abused kids.
I'd do some traveling and just enjoy not having to work again!!!
Almost forgot the liposuction!!! I'd never be fat again!!!

Congratulations!!! She is beautiful!!!

You couldn't pay me to walk on the SCT!!! It is too dark and spooky in places. I just wouldn't feel comfortable there. It was a wonderfu idea to create it, but I guess I'm just a scardy-cat!!!

They are adorable!!!

Can a child go to pre-school if they're not potty trained by age 4?
-
You are one of those really cute pregnant women!!! Both my daughters were adorable!!
Go to Scalini's on Cobb Parkway and eat the eggplant parmesan. It works. My daughter did it and went into labor 36 hours later. She hates eggplant and only ate half but it sure worked!!
Good luck!!!

I get sick of hearing it because it never happens. I love snow and just get disappointed when they say it is and it doesn't.

I cant believe most of you would put the dog down, when in fact the dog is doing what most comes natural to most dogs. Why don't you all put the owner or yourselves down for owning a dog that is not properly trained or socialized. Its NOT the dogs fault some people think its cool to just own a Pit.
I agree!! Any dog can be made to be mean. It's all in how they are raised and socialized. My daughter brought home a pit bull that had been abandoned in a house that was being built in a subdivision. He was about 6 months ole and had been shot full of buck shot and just left to fend for himself. We already had a lab mix, and I was a little nervous about the two being together. They got along great except for the fact that they had to be fed separatedly. They would attack each other over food.
We named the pit Spot and he was the sweetest, most lovable dog that you could ever want. . .with us. Me, my husband, and daughter. He didn't like very many other people. If you didn't show fear and if you ignored him, he would eventually want to make friends. Then again, he just took to some people and loved them from the moment he laid eyes on them. But there were others that he would have torn apart if he'd gotten the chance.
We had a fenced-in back yard, and we didn't allow Spot out of the fence unless he was on a leash. Then he learned how to climb the fence. He would get out and run around, and I was terrfied that he would bite somebody. He never did, but the day I came home from work and he was in the middle of the street surrounded by a group of neighborhood kids, I almost had a heart attack!!! He was actually playing with the kids. But I knew he could be vicious, so my husband asked around and found a guy who lived alone on some land in Carroll County. Now Spot lives with him.
I loved that dog more than I'd ever loved another one because he was so spoiled and such a big baby with us. But. . .he had the potential to really hurt someone. I believe that if we'd gotten him when he was a 6-week-old puppy, he would have been a wonderful dog. He had been abused and mistreated and he just didn't trust many people. I miss him terribly, even though we now have our chocolate lab, Luke.
I had a pit/chow mix that was very sweet and never met a stranger. She didn't have a mean bone in her body. But she was treated like a child from the time she was given to us by my brother-in-law.
It's all in how they are treated.

Both my girls were potty-trained by the time they were 2. Completely potty-trained with no accidents!!
My grandson will be 4 in July and has very little interest in peeing in the potty. He will go occasionally, especially first thing in the morning. We ask him if he has to potty and he says "no thanks". Then he will pee in his pants.
He has been pooping in the potty since the summer and never has those kind of accidents. My daughter is very frustrated because she's tried everything, and nothing will convince him to pee in the potty. She started trying to potty train him when he was a little over 2 and it worked fairly good at first. Now it's like he will never get it!!
I know you're not supposed to rush them, but it gets really old really quick!!!

I'm *very* disappointed that Michael is going through - Anoop was MUCH better. I hope the judges will bring him back later.
I agree!!! Michael was ok, but Anoop was really good!! He has a much better voice.

What I hate is when they keep talking about areas that are far away from us. I am only concerned with what's happening in our immediate area. I could care less about what's happening in Forsyth, Monroe, etc.!!!!

I saw a gossip column that says that he picks Melissa but then hooks up with Molly afterward. Thus the after the final rose #2 drama. He gets unengaged to Melissa and flies off into the sunset with Molly. We'll see.
If that's the case, he's really screwed up in the head!! Looks to me like he doesn't want anything but a good time!!

I have to disagree about the groceries.
We don't buy that many, it's just the two of us, but when I'm at Walmart it's always $100. I see families with a buggy full and it's $300-$400 and I just wonder how in the hell can famlies make it?
Food has become very expensive. And daily necessities.
I agree with you totally!! I can't afford to buy groceries anywhere but Wal-Mart, and now they've gone way up on everything. I don't know how big families are making it unless they make a whole lot of money. We are really feeling the pinch. Hubby hasn't had any work lately, but at least he's doing things around the house that have been put on the back burner because of no time. We have some savings but not enough to last a long time. We don't have any bills other than mortgage, car payment, utilities, and groceries. The only way we can cut back is with groceries. I have some extra money because they cut our health insurance at work and we only have catastrophic coverage. I cancelled it and now put the premium money into a separate bank account so that it can accumulate in case we get sick.
Things are really tough. My youngest daughter's ex has quit helping her financially, and she's really struggling. She's looking for a cheaper place to live and a job that pays more than minimum wage. She can't even find a daycare that she can afford for the two boys because it will cost a minimum of about $300 a week to put them in one. And that's not even one of the nice ones.
My oldest daughter started school and will probably have to quit because she might have to go back to work. Her significant other lost his job, and now she can't afford daycare for the baby and he has to find work.
It is truly depressing!!!

I was very disappointed when he sent Jillian home. He just didn't have a good bunch of girls to pick from!! This seemed to be the most immature group of any of the shows so far.
I think he will pick Melissa, but I bet it won't last. He can't see past her looks. She seems very immature, and I think she's in it just to "win". Also, her laugh is about the most annoying thing I've ever heard!! There is something weird going on with her and her family. If they weren't willing to meet the man their daughter could potentially marry, that speaks volumes about them. Or at least to me it does. And Jason seems so family-oriented.
As for Molly, she's just a spoiled little rich girl playing a game. Ty did not see to like her at all. Maybe he's got more sense than his dad!!!
As for Deanna, I would love to see them together. I know a lot of people don't feel this way, but I know he really loved her and, face it, everybody makes mistakes. If she realized her mistake and can fix it, good for her!!! In my opinion, he would be better off with her than with either of the other two.
This has been the most disappointing season so far!!!

Jesse was precious but, for whatever reason, it didn't work out with him and Deanna. Jason did not have a very good lot to pick from, and he sent the two best ones home (Stephanie and now Jillian). Seems to me that all he's looking for is a young, non-responsible, spoiled bimbo. I don't believe he's using the "head" on his shoulders, and he will be sorry in the end.
I can't remember the exact words, but Chris said something to the effect that this will be an ending like no other. I'd much rather see him go back to Deanna than pick either Molly or Melissa. I really like him, and I think he's going to be really disappointed in the end.

Bear Grylls is about the most disgusting person I've ever seen on TV. My husband loves the show. I just go into the other room when it's on. I've watched a few episodes, and can't understand why he would want to eat the things he does. I understand that these are supposed survival techniques but, honestly, how many of us are going to put outselves in the situations he does?!?!? I'm sure he could find something else to each, with all his many survival skills, other than something that has been pooped by a bear!!!
Child Support
in Internet Cafe
Posted
My POS ex-husband owes over $30,000 in arrears. My girls are 26 and 23. He paid really good for a while through income deduction, but the problem was Child Support Recovery. He was stupid enough to get married to a woman who was much less than faithful after we divorced. She had two kids by two different men while she was married to my ex. He is an idiot!!! He always suspected that neither of the kids were his but wouldn't do anything about it. So, when they divorced, she filed for child support recovery. Well--CSU would send the money taken out of his check for my kids to her. She was getting my money and hers, too!!! I complained over and over and was told they couldn't do anything about it because it was they way their computer worked. BS!!!
Well--he got hooked on meth and lost his $70,000 a year job. So for several years, nobody got anything. He finally got another job and then got laid off. They suspended his license and then got in fight with his non-biological son. He's in jail now and they won't set a bond until he pays some towards his child support. He only has to pay $300 and they will even reinstate his license. He was getting unemployment and they were taking some of the child support out. But he only owes me arrears so I get a whopping $17.00 a month!!! No, I don't need the money. I let it collect up and use it to buy stuff for my grandchildren.
Now--my son-in-law has three other kids besides my granddaughter. He had a period of time back in 2006 and 2007 when he was out of work. Once he got another job, he immediately started paying again. During that time period when he was out, his ex took out a warrent. He got pulled over for a traffic violation and is not in jail. Even though he has paid regularly since he went back to work, they won't even take that into consideration. He can't pay if he doesn't work. And he's lost his job because he's in jail. They want $4,000 before he can get out. And he's that's all he's behind. They want the whole amount and there's no way!!! My daughter is having a horrible time because she's going to school and trying to work to pay her bills and keep her apartment.
The court system isn't fair when it comes to child support. They should have the same rules for everyone. Once again my daughter is getting screwed because of child support.
All men should be made to pay but it should be the same rules for everyone.
