Wanna play?

I write a word and the next person writes the first word that comes to mind and so on:

Diet

Scarbble 2

Jodes66 — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 17:31:58 GMT

Change one letter of the last Word posted and let's see who gets stuck and can't continue!

Rules: You cannot add letters. You cannot use foreign Languages. You can only change one letter and you can't mix up placing of the letters.

Eg - hose could become nose/host/pose but not shoe

(four letter words seem to work best for this)

OK first word:

FAST

Ok Something Fun 2009

Batista — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 20:05:49 GMT

I should have started this last year but due to to much going on in the world today it has taken me this long to restart. Im sure most of you will come to forgive me as a long member of the TF Forums.

For those who dont remember:

Okay Rules
1) Post a word that is associated with the previous word
2) You cant post the word previous to the last ie. Red, Color, Red
3) IT HAS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE PREVIOUS WORD

Now lest See, What word can we use to start this one off.... Oh I know, Because of the recent events ill have to make the starting word with one of 'TODAYS' Drama's in the world.
2009 Starting Word Is: SWINE :D:D
Good luck and have fun!

HI everyone looking for some fellow South Africans?

NuttyCow — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 22:50:48 GMT

Sorry for just barging in but I am not sure where to start chatting...

so I was wondering if there were any other South Africans around who are starting this week... as the programme has just been launched here :)

I was hoping to not be the only newbie :p

PIERCINGS AND TATTOO's

dell1978 — Thu, 11 Jan 2007 13:51:46 GMT

There are a few of us in the chat room at the moment and we are discussing tat's and piercings, yes we do talk about Tf, but we are regulars in there.

So I thought, being a sticky-beak and all, I would start a thread on who has what and for what reasons they got it.

I have no tat's as yet, want one after I have lost 20kgs, with my kids names in it some how and I have always wanted one. And piercings, my ears and my labret (under lip on chin sort of).

Thanks and can't wait

High Blood Pressure

princessleia — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 21:00:10 GMT

atm I'm sick with glandular fever - it's awful and I feel terrible ...

when i went to the docs he said my Bp was really high - and to go back next week to check it .....

it's usually been ok - and I cant remember the figures he gave me

for you that have it - were there any symptoms that you were aware of - and do the docs put you on meds instantly - or will they let you have a month or so to diet and exercise before checking again.......

Does the weather affect your commitment to the program?

qbn_girls — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 10:58:22 GMT

Hey was just wondering if any of you guys feel less motivated when the weather is bad? and how come??

On a day like today here where it is cloudy and bit cold, i personally don't want to do it and can't find any motivation! What helps you on bad days??

Migraines- what do you do to alleviate them??

kjb_kat — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 21:52:44 GMT

Hi everyone,

Have had a migraine for the last 2 days and I'm trying to find something to alleviate it apart from using medicine etc. I don't mind having panadol/nurofen etc, but I need something stronger as these dont work, and the stronger drugs all have codeine which make me very sick, so I can't have them!

So my question is, what do you do when you have migraines to stop them?

I'm off to the doctors tomorrow to see what they suggest

THanks everyone :)

Lest We Forget

Vixxsin ~ Take 2 ~ — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 12:08:23 GMT

For the Fallen

With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children,
England mourns for her dead across the sea.
Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit,
Fallen in the cause of the free.

Solemn the drums thrill: Death august and royal
Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres.
There is music in the midst of desolation
And a glory that shines upon our tears.

They went with songs to the battle, they were young,
Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

They mingle not with their laughing comrades again;
They sit no more at familiar tables at home;
They have no lot in our labour of the day-time;
They sleep beyond England's foam.

But where our desires are and our hopes profound,
Felt as a well-spring that is hidden from sight,
To the innermost heart of their own land they are known
As the stars are known to the Night;

As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust,
Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain,
As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness,
To the end, to the end, they remain.

Wisdom teeth

eflow*take3 — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:43:47 GMT

I got all my wisdom teeth out about a month ago and they have healed well. however, the sockets are still there and i am forever getting food caught in there which is really hard to get out. it grosses me out and is driving me nuts. anyone know how long its takes for the sockets to close?????

What do you find easier to do ????

Robot — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 01:02:06 GMT

I was just in my bathroom, and i thought shaving my pits and legs was nessersary.

Anyhoo, I can actually shave my pits without having to pin half my arm skin to my nose :hehe:

Then I thought if I don't shave my legs I'll have to call Greenpeace to obtain logging rights !!!

I just lifted my leg up onto the sink and off I went. Purfect job too I might add. :cool:

I guess to some people this means nothing, but to me it means everything. It's been over 10 years since I could shave my own legs !!!!!!!!

Just simple little things I notice that I can do now, like the above like checking the mail without having to have a nanny nap, or hanging out the washing in one go.

What about you.?????

What do you find easier to do, that others take for granted.??????

Tell me I want to know, cause I am a sticky beak, and I have to know everything LOLOL

Yours in hairles legs and pits,

Good Morning everyone

well the sun is up, the birds are singing, the washing is on, and i am having my coffee for the day, and it looks like the rain we were having has headed over to victoria!!

Today i will be cleaning up after the heavy rain - theres mud in places i never thought there would be grrrrrr, and my clothes are going to love being aired out on the line instead of being dryed in the dryer :)

Whats everyone else got planned for today??

For those who are working - have a fantastic day at work, walk in with a smile on your face, and make everyone wonder what you got up to last night!!

Am I depressed??

rickykate — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 18:15:01 GMT

Hi everyone just wanting some opinions here.

I went to the drs today & had to have some blood tests to check my hormone levels, he said it sounded like i have depression.

I am 32 years old married , 2 boys age 8 & 5. For the last 4-5 months i have been having trouble with my monthlys like my boobs become so heavy i have to hold them to have a shower its that painful, sleeping in my bra etc, i can not stop crying , fly off the handle at my kids for silly reasons, then ( ashamed as i am to admit it ) sometimes get that frustrated i hit myself in the head, i feel like there is a war going on in there i can't handle it. I can't do any housework, struggle to get out of bed & get on with my day & usually sleep for 2-3hours thru the day.I usually finish work at midnight. Nothing has happened in my life to warrant these changes but as the months go it is getting harder to deal with.

I should get my blood tests back by monday, doc said something about a phsycologist if my bloods come back normal. What is wrong with me I don't really want to talk to anyone about it because i just start crying.

I will take on board any opinions/suggestions as it has taken me so long just to head to the drs & ask for help...has anyone else been in a similar situation?

Thanks for your understanding. (formerly katemjk)

Obesity and health

sandradeee — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:39:42 GMT

Just needed to vent/share. Today I received news that a friend of my good friend John died yesterday (John also lost his friend Julie to suicide a couple of weeks ago...not a good month).

Tiny (play on his stature of course) was anything but Tiny. I have no idea how much he weighed, but it would be in excess of 160kg I'm sure. I wasn't close to him, but bumped into him at every party and BBQ at John's place over the last 17 years or so. He was a good-looking man with a great sense of humour - he also seemed to grow and grow each time I saw him.

He lost his parents at a very young age and called John's parents Ma and Da - they were his surrogate parents. As all ma's would, Johns mum used to encourage him to take of his weight and was worried about his ever increasing health issues and gynormity of size.

His passion was his friends and fishing.....and of course food!

I often think you 'can' be large and healthy and I believe size isn't everything, yet there is definately a line and there is a difference between plump and morbid obesity. They do call it 'morbid' obesity for a reason I suppose and as much as I would love to defend that being big doesn't necessarily cause health issues, it seems more and more evident that it probably does. Tiny was warned by Dr's that he wouldn't see 40 if he didn't do something about his health (he laughed it off), my dad was also fore-warned, sadly both Dr's were proven right.

It's a very sad reminder to put my health before my waistline and try my best to put good fuel in.

Our friend Tiny died yesterday, of a massive heart-attack, he was only 39 years old.

Rest in peace Tiny - you won't be forgotten.

Whale Watching!!

belladonnas — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 07:46:48 GMT

Hi everyone, :D

My baby girl turned 11 yesterday and to celebrate she chose to go on a Whale Watching adventure for 4 hours!!:w00t:

And thats what it was "an ADVENTURE"!!! To cut a long story short, we had lunch at Circular Quay before going on a Whale watching tour even though the weather was... bad and the seas were horrendous, they had 3metre swells PLUS!!!!

Well lets just say we seen the first hour before we all had our heads in sick bags for the remaining 3 hours!!( NO KIDDING) But we did seen several Whales which trully is an amazing sight and even though it will take me a while to recover , I would love to go back out when the seas are CALM!! !!

I will add some pics today when everything around stops rocking!! The birthday girl had a lovely ( SICK) day and is off to her 1st outing for High School prep today and then we are back in town for a school excursion tomorrow ( NO BOATS INVOLVED)!!! But the birthday girl enjoyed her day despite us all being sick!!!

We woke up this morning and everything is still swaying, so I guess we still have our sea legs on, Im hoping to get back to normal today as I still cant keep anything down at all!!! I have never suffered sea sickness but then again it was VERY ROGH out there!!

Any advice on stopping everything swaying would be GREAT!:w00t:

Suicide Blonde

sandradeee — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 14:20:49 GMT

Well today I heard from my friend that his ex girlfriend from some time back took her own life on Friday. They've always kept in touch, and I've met her on a few occassions.

On the outside Julie seemed to have it all and yet for some reason she decided this way was a better option. She's about my age - 41.

I took the information onboard and find myself sitting here feeling a little annoyed that she has left her partner and family in this tragic way. I've had a best friend and a boyfriend attempt suicide in the past and feel totally bewildered as to why most of us fight for our lives and yet someone makes that final choice.

Such a terrible waste that I'll never understand.

Everything is going wrong at once

ShoeAddict89 — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 15:58:18 GMT

This is just a little rant, have to get somethings off my chest.

Everything seems to be going wrong at once, me and my boyfriend of two years broke up just over a week ago, work has gotten so stressful that I dread going in- I either have to sit there for hours with nothing to do or I am buried under work I don't understand, rego and vet bills are drawing closer, I'm broke and it's my birthday in just over a month and it's just made me think that I'll be another year older and while the majority of my friends are finishing uni soon or travelling I am just floating around doing nothing worth while.

I'm trying to get it together and set some goals but I'm having trouble shaking off the blues :(
