Maura

i dunno if i forgot to type this somewhere on the forum or not, but the other day MY OWN BROTHER sent me a message on my myspace wall (and i am NEVER on myspace, i should just delete it altogether) saying he doesnt know if he can scrape the money together to go to my wedding. i nearly called my dad to read him the riot act about why this is so inappropriate - i know my dad talks to my brother on the phone like 5x a week, so its not like he couldnt have asked my dad to relay the message. WTF! MY OWN BROTHER!

hahahahaha omg he would die. i stuck a booger on him once like 6 months ago because he was being a brat, and to this day he has not gotten over it, so i cant imagine if i got anal leakage on him...he would NEVER get over it!!!! LOL

just wondering if anyone else has bought alli and started it yet! i'm doing well with it, overall down 6 pounds. hoping to make that more this week. i exercised twice this week so far and hoping to do it again today and tomorrow bc my shower is saturday and i caught wind that the dessert is petit fors!

im starving so i just ate a mini-pack of carrots.... but i tell you ever since i started taking alli, i dont snack on shitty food anymore because i dont want to leak grease LOL

yum that sounds delish jen! i am grilling sirloin steak tips seasoned with garlic, salt & pepper and grilling baked potatoes & broccoli for dinner tonight.

i actually started a thread like this awhile ago http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t19580 i ended up buying one with an alligator clip and it stays in great, very secure.

girl, dont be embarassed - everybody has issues. all humans are vulnerable! if it helps to get it off your chest, im glad we're here for you to listen.

dez, have you ever had your thyroid checked?

not to pry, but putting on 100 pounds is a lot -- have you gotten checked out at your doctor to make sure there's not an underlying health reason this has happened?

jenny those are freakin adorable! how much are they?

you can swim at the westin, but it depends on the time of year. there's a strong undertow sometimes and they put up red flags when it's too dangerous to swim.

thanks girls for all your opinions about the dress. i sent the photos to one of my BMs today too and she agrees with you, she likes the pink dress a lot. gosh, sometimes i wish i wasnt so critical of my body, but i guess most women are.

i really think the best thing for you guys right now is some counseling. it seems like he is all over the place with his complaints and reasoning. can you put your wedding plans on hold for a little while you take care of your personal business?

why does he feel trapped? it has to be something other than the cleanliness issue he has. my FI is a neat freak, but he accepts that i am not. yes, we get into arguments sometimes when i dont pick up after myself or clean something half-assed, but he would never say he felt trapped or couldnt live with me for the rest of his life because of that, KWIM? so what are his other issues that are causing him to feel trapped? and are they the same as last time you considered leaving?

we are 16 days away from our legal day, and both bugging out every couple of days. we fight and he says he's having doubts, but i know he doesnt really mean it. then like an hour later he is kissing & hugging me so i KNOW he didnt mean it. i think sometimes the wedding stress just gets the better of us. but i think this is fairly common & normal. i dont have many friends who are married that DIDNT go through what we're experiencing with the little tiffs all the time before the wedding. on the other hand, i'm not sure feeling "trapped" and thinking about leaving your FI are common & normal. is this an ongoing issue you've had, or is it something just recent that's come up?

alright i merged the two fuschia threads so we dont have multiple threads with the same exact topic

isnt there a whole thread for fuschia brides already? im going to go look for it and link it for you. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t23090 i have to go jump in the shower right now, but when i get to the office i will merge this thread with that one above, i think those ladies will be of some help to you.

katrina i LOVE your flowers, theyre SO pretty! but i do agree with you about the hair flowers looking more like theyre for a FG than a bride. ok i promised some pics earlier, so here you go: jose's tie with his suit (from brooks brothers) me in the turquoise target dress here's where i need your (honest) opinion - does this dress make me look too chubby? i ordered it from jcrew for my shower this weekend and it just arrived today. not sure how i feel about it yet. i'm thick in the middle, so nothing ever looks right on me in the waist part what do you think?

im grilling chicken breast to slice up with lite ceasar salad and put into a pita... its one of jose's faves and he should be home any minute

YAAAAAY!! Welcome to the world Ainsleigh! LOL, alyssa, i RAN to my computer when i got your text message!!
