    Oh, I'm sorry about that, Virgil. But isn't it natural that when excercising at first you lose some weight, but will gain a bit (not all of the lost amount, of course !) after a time ? Some kind of levelling off ?
    I hope this has not done a lot of psychological damage... Keep it up .

    No, no psychological damage. That is funny. Thank you for you encouragement.

    maybe you put on muscles???? muscles are heavier than fat. also, when you exercise and grow muscles, you need more food because muscles use up more food.
    heehee, i wouldn't count on it, though.
    have you seen one of those doctors who can analyse how much fat, water and muscles your body's made up of? (what are they called????)

    eat smaller portions!
    hehe, no offense, I had a tantrum myself this week because i still haven't lost all the weight i put on in England (2,5 years ago!!!!!!)

    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    Have a seat on the sofa, and tell us which uni and which degree, if you had to go there for interview, if it's far away from where you live now etc. *handing the cookies to Grace* .

    Yes, I think I'm building a quite a bit of muscle. That's why overall I've been encouraged. I actually lost some weight while building muscle.

    Something I need to boast about - I finally found out what a certain technical term meant! (And that is something to be happy about after the two days I spent agonising over it.)

    Congratulations!

    Thank you, Schokokeks, for the cookies. They taste lovely! And what's new to boast about? Hey, I completed one whole plate of cookies made by Schokokeks all by myself!

    I cut my hair shorter than I ever have before, to my jaw! And that's boast-worthy because I rarely do anything unpredictable. Meaning my hair has, until recently, only gone to shoulder length.

    "To talk of many things:
    Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
    Of cabbages--and kings--
    And why the sea is boiling hot--
    And whether pigs have wings."

    You guys are simply great !

    I envy you all. I havent made a boast post so far. I live in a messy room, I have no intention of cleaning it, and I have never ever done anything big, grand or great.

    I should find something to boast about.
    Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

    Be the change you wish to see

    Today I single handedly defeated the Giant Venusian Spider King in glorious combat!!!!! I found it hiding in my closet and smashed it with my newspaper. The evil king was cunning though, and while it managed to evade my first strike, it was not ready for the second deadly smash that ultimately splattered him on the side of the closet!
