we are a vendor of DPS. me and you are one in the same because girl I eat out a lot
we need to becoem work out buddies and encourage each other
I go to advance weight loss center located on 8 mile and Evergreen Its basically you can eat evrything 3 grams or less and they give you a week worth of pills and a b-12 shot and they weight you in and track your weight loss its 40 dollars a week and worth it because I eat that up for lunch in a week :-))and thats what my mom lost good on and thats was in 6 months and no working out the people there are so nice and helpful.

msmoni · 08-24-2005, 09:02 AM

That sounds good, right now I walk outside the mall or inside. I don't have a membership. I am truely not a fan of shots. What type of work out buddy are you looking for? Do you want to walk or just someone to hold you accountable? Where do you usually hang out at? I usually go to friends houses or sometimes applebees, ruby tuesdays, places like that. Sounds like you and your mom are close. Mines died when I was younger and love to see people close to their moms. I am close to my grandma, but she is not into weight loss.

My hubby is very nice and sweet, but he also can not get out to work out, he is not ready yet. I usually walk Sat and Sundays before church at the mall. I am flexable. I saw you have a son, how old is he. Mines are all boys 18, 15, and 3 and a step son 14.

abitofpassion · 08-24-2005, 10:06 AM

Hey
I just need someone to help me out. Me and mom is really close she is my bestfriend so you will see her when we walk or whatever. My sonis 3 and will be 4 in december he is my only I am soon to be married Hopefully in May of 2006 me and his dad is still together and shacking for now:-( Your boys are just about grown thats good I cant wit until mine gets a little older and out of the whinney and clingy stage but I love it and I know that when he gets older i am going to be asking for that

)) I dont have a life I hang out at my moms (she stays around the corner from me) and I hang out with my friends and family at restaurant and thats about it
I do hair and nails Thurs-Sat at my moms after work so I am so busy with work and my hustle that it seems I never have time for me and I have to et out of that and make time. My soon to be hubby is thin and he aint trying to diet sooo. Maybe we can meet at the mall and walk or something

msmoni · 08-24-2005, 11:32 AM

What kind of hair do you do. I was looking for a new hair dresser. Mines moved out of town and he is coming this week to do it for me. But this will be the last time. Cool, I have a 3 year old too. Jacob will be 4 in Dec. So that is perfect. I do go to school, but it is online. But other than that nothing much. I walk on Sat~Sun mornings the earlier the better. Trust me I have learned this time around to love this stage, my older kids are a trip and they are not clingy unless they need something, like the car

. I am also open to walking after work. I get off at 4:00 and Ballys is near my house or somewhere near yours. I would love to have someone who is serious about losing and love meeting new friends. I will send you my phone number through instant message. How did you find this board? Oh yeah I work all the way in Troy, so it takes me a min. to get home.

msmoni · 08-24-2005, 12:00 PM
