(went from 117-125 range my whole life to 170 in just 2 years)

nope.gif

suddenly the lose weight to haul thing is sounding really, really good.


Oh my goodness I'm in the same boat as you! I was like 120-125 in high school and in the first year or 2 in college. The past couple of years I fluffed up to about 165 so this summer I am going to cut the pounds off and keep it off. And thats funny you mentioned how you got into makeup too, because I did also lol.

But staying in topic of things I love my glossimers, I pulled one out the other day and wore one and wonder why the heck I don't wear these more often lol. Since I haven't been totally loyal to this thread is the fall collection that is hitting in june(?) this collection here: Chanel Les Contrastes de Chanel Collection for Fall 2010
I plan on visiting this thread alot in june

Yep, June! Audrey said her MA said it's due to hit counters around June 14th. Even by then, it won't be technically summer, yet!

I really want the glossimers and the quad. I have quite the collection of glossimers but I only own 2 quads so this will be a nice addition.

I warned him of the possible future Chanel addiction, and the difference in price between that and MAC, and all he said was "whatever you want, honey."

On a serious note, however, you should be very careful - now that he's snaked his way in, he might think it's a piece of cake and who knows what he might try next.

The nerve!!!


Oh man, I was just so shocked I had no idea what to say! After it happened I had a long talk with the hubby with numerous random scenarios to "talk out" what my responses would be in advance.
lol.gif


I felt like such a girl! I'm not usually that much of a damsel in distress type, it was so funny and awkward, lol. After I burned a candle in the bathroom (with the door shut and the fan on) for about 2 hours I spent the next 45 mins sanitizing every single surface in there...with gloves and everything!

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

All the weight loss talk is very motivating and encouraging. I recently started a new eating/exercise plan with the hubby too, going well so far. I wish everyone strength and energy to keep going and reach their goals, we can all do it together!

Random side note: We really do seem to have so many things in common in this thread!!

About the new single e/s, I'm really liking Lilly and Slate, and possibly the Deep Taupe. I don't have any Chanel e/s, so I'm not quite sure what to expect texture and payoff wise. Holding off for now (must wait for June!) but I'd love to see swatches if anyone finds any/does any.

Hope everyone's doing well, happy almost weekend!

I cannot look at those pics of the new Chanel enough! It all looks so beautiful. I have to have the middle pink blush - or I'll go

oh, shoot...I'm already there

Its really smart of all you guys to start on the exercise/eating healthy when you're young. When you hit around 40 - its waaaaaay harder to take it off!
Since I've become a workout/healthy eating nut I have tons of energy. I could run rings around anyone half my age - seriously. Plus the health benefits before you get older = money saved in medical bills.

Slate! I overlooked slate. How does the color look in person? Were you allowed to touch Deep Taupe

Enjoy your Glossimers when you get them.

YES! I was allowed to touch it! and I loved it!!!

Slate was my favorite of the eyeshadows, I think it is because I love neutrals, grays, taupes, and this eyeshadow is so smooth and has a great pigmentation, I really loved slate

I got Ming RAL today!! Oh! So pretty! I also had to have Nordie's DTC Lily to me - the only ones in the whole company are apparently in Florida, so I should have it by next week. Looks like it's gone the way of Marine Life!!

I also got my TTB goodies (including the LAST Sand and Sun!) and can't wait to play.....

Meg, I love your artwork!! I think I want all the same things you do!!!

I'll catch up on the thread later - have to run out -

I cannot even look at the singles. I went nuts with TTB. Prettiest collection ever imo! I warned DH that I would be going a little bit nuts with it and there was nothing he could say about it!

I need to eat healthier too. Ever since I returned back to work (almost two years not), my weight has slowly crept up since my butt's planted in a chair the whole friggin day! I'm tiny (4'11"), so it really shows on me. I can't really complain, because I've always been on the petite side, but since being back at work and I guess getting into my mid 30's, my body isn't as resilient as it used to be and I'm starting to gain a little in the wrong places! So Elegant, I hear you about things getting harder with age, since I'm starting to see it already. But my goal has always been to try and eat healthy for the sake of being healthy. Hard coming from a total sugar junkie!!! So girls, keep it up! I'm already feeling motivated thanks to all of you!

So, I mowed the lawn today (push mower, with hills, and no drive assist) and it took me 1 1/2 hours!! I normally work out with Jillian's video which is about 30 minutes. That should count for 3 workouts, right?!
