GreenEyesBright Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 In an effort to balance out the Forum, we need a thread to post happy thoughts.Went to the beach today and like a true nerd, I thought I'd do a little people watching and see who men (not boys) checked out the most. And was pleasantly surprised. There were plenty of women with teensy weensy bikinis, some fully covered up and everything in between. Yet the one woman who was checked out the most was about 25, had on a black bikini bottom that fit well, toned legs and get this, a loose form fitting tshirt. She wasn't stick thin, just healthy and fit. Maybe 5'6, and a size 8. She effortlessly looked amazing with a slight tan, and her hair down. Yet every man around us couldn't take their eyes off of her as she walked in the water, played with her kids and had a great time. All of the women who dressed similarly received alot of approval from men. The scantily clad women were checked out but shortly. There wasn't alot of mystery as to what they had underneath. I'm totally doing this when I'm down 20 more lbs with a geek/band shirt. (Made my day cause I realized that I wasn't too far away from my beach bunny goals )Go Big or Go Home!

LRB Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Husband left for a business trip at 6 this a.m. But he got up extra early to feed and walk the dog, so I didn't have to add that to the usual family-morning craziness. Made my day.

This is Seth Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 My roommate's family came up for Easter dinner and both his mom and sister said that we both had lost more weight. And his mom goes "Seth, you have a whole lot of upper body going on. Are you doing body building or something?"No, I am not. But thank you for making my day.

cline Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 got totally absorbed on my walk to work this morning by a squirrel eating a flower. Made my day.a young woman who used to work for me has an interview in my organization today. I really like her and handed her resume around. I'm very hopeful. That makes my day.

Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood.

Guest Gemeaux Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I met up with my best friend today , and after we went to this talk , we had a long chat . I can't put it into words , but she said some things to me that changed me . Made me realize things , and one thing I'm struggling with at the moment : relationships . I now see the main reason things never work out and men lose interest pretty quickly . And I know I can change it , and I feel so much better now . I can't express how much my friend means to me Quote Link to comment
unicornassassin Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Seeing a super-kick butt woman lifting in the gym.Hearing an old coot (no other word for the type of guy he is) laughing his butt off while listening to something on the rowing machine.Finally tried Pilates class today, and was able to keep up. Months ago I would have been suffering!

Bean Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 There is a guy in the free weeights section that I totally respect - he squats, benches, deadlifts and does all those good things. Way more weight than I am ever likely to get to.Yesterday, while I was doing squats he gave me a thumbs up. Such a small thing, but it truly made my day!

morethanjustamom Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 Monday evening we were at a family crawfish boil, and my Hubby was telling my uncles that I'm pretty fearless and tough. I'm widely considered dainty and delicate by my family, and I have more fears than I can count, so my Hubby saying this to my family made my day. Also, my uncle baptized my oldest son last night, and broke down into tears during the ceremony. Made my day and touched my heart.

Grosby Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 2 Gym things.1. My favourite sing-a-long song for the moment (We Are Young by Fun.) came on at the gym, so I started singing along while I was loading up for my deadlifts - and one of the other ladies in the weights area started singing along with me. heehee. (And the big guy curling on the bench just looked at us like O_o)2. Right near the end of my workout one of the OTHER ladies, one I admire from a far with all her strength and muscleness, actually left her bench to come over to me to ask how i was going, and how I was enjoying doing weights. <3 I was all Felt awesome.

kelsey28 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 When I was working a heavy bag at the gym, someone asked me when my next fight was.

Librarian of Doom Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Yesterday I was getting all whiny about my limited food options (I get whiny with low blood sugar). I didn't realize until this morning that I was whining about not wanting to eat tuna salad because I didn't have any baby carrots to eat with it. A year ago, I would have been whining because we were out of potato chips Made my day! Quote Hobbit Ranger seeking balance (and cookies) Current Challenge Link to comment
Honeybee Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 I won $50 in a blog commenting contest. I never win contests! It made me so happy, since I really need the money.I was really frustrated with my taxes, but stuck with it and found a credit my husband and I are eligible for which should help us come out $32 in the positive after all is said and done.Great idea for a thread! I love reading everyone's happy stories! Quote Level 2 Rebel STR 5 | DEX 4 | STA 4 | CON 6 | WIS 7.5 | CHA 4.5 Aspiring Assassin | 1 | Current Link to comment
