hehe hadn’t realised i’d done that. what am i like 
susi
great list, and great starts!!! :happydance:
Maybe this will help those who are trying to stop biting their nails.
I heard this from Whoopi Goldberg on The View. Another woman was trying to stop biting her nails. Whoopi asked her how many times a day she went to the bathroom (you know, #2) and did she wash her hands afterwards.
Of course, she did.
But the kicker was “Do you scrub under your nails with a nail brush every time after you go to the bathroom?”
Of course, she didn’t.
Ewww :ick: That would make me stop biting my nails! Hope this helps.
:shock: Okay that’s really gross, and thankfully not something I have to think about. One day I just stopped biting my nails and never went back to it. (I have no idea where that came from but wherever it did, i would like to send chocolate there too…lol)
But i am a little disturbed at the thought of GETTING the stuff under my fingernails whilst i was wiping. :ick:
:ick: 
:ick:
Okay… I have the preliminary list done. It needs to be tweeked in some areas to be more specific but it is MOSTLY done. So here it is and when I find areas I wanna tweek I will just do that here…lol (yeah that is genius thinking right here) OOOH and to be completely clear. I have considered that I may have some duplicates on it from having done it over the span of several days. I will proof read it some time after I have had some sleep…lol.

YAY Bren! :cheering: When are you starting?
January 31st because my 1001th day will be my 40th birthday. :wall: i am sooo oooooooold. :teehee:
That’s awesome though!!! :cheering:
Hilde wow amazing 101 list!!
So the countdown begins… this week I am purging the house of all the junk, reading You on a Diet, and trying desperately to remember to drink the water I have in the fridge (instead of the gin and cherry coke haha).
This would be so fun to do! Now let’s just see if I can think up 101 things…
Gin and [I]cherry[/I] Coke? OooOooh! :mrgreen:
This is a way cool project; Hilde if you want support join us over in the Knitting Diet Challenge thread! It’s no specific diet or anything, but I’ve found it a helpful place to vent, get advice, trumpet my victories, etc. :cheering:
Will do!
ill do it!
uh…lemme think…
I liked reading everyone’s list. i don’t know if i can think of 101 things. I love hilde perfect the smokey eye look. Has anyone? I love that look. My mom was a makeup artist I could only get it if she did for me
Yeah I’m just going to walk around looking like someone punched me for a few weeks haha.
Bren, how was your first day???
lol cranky and crabby and very glad i have a long time to do this stuff cuz there was NOOOO way i could have given up chocolate on a day like today. :teehee:
you can see me cross stuff off here
and talk about it occasionally here
umm… and if you go there now you can crack up at my friend Mike. 
:teehee:
I had 3 martinis and a third of a frozen pizza :shifty:
I FINALLY have my list! Now all I have to do is put it on my computer and I’ll have it on here. I’m so excited!!:cheering:
