So, what's your weight?

attempting to have every topic known to humankind

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

I just happen to know that I weigh exactly 109.5 lbs. I know this because you have to be at least 110 to donate blood to the Red Cross, and the didn't let me donate because I was a half a pound too light. Bummer.

Then you would be 110 if you ate before they weighed you...

Yeah, follow Monday's advice. Eating always increases one's weight . . . at least for several hours, anyhow. Considering it takes almost a full day for the body to completely digest the food, you'd probably weigh an extra pound or two (depending on how much you eat, obviously) after eating. :D

It isn't proper for a woman (much less a mayor) to give her weight away. [-(

Eating usually will increase weight.........but if you have a really small appeitite you may want to try drinking ensure or boost drinks (they have a lot of calories)........I will warn you, most of them taste disgusting........I have found I can tollerate the Strawberry flavored boost OK.........drink 3 of those (plus eat normally) a day for like a week before you weigh in, and you should weigh enough.

I've done it before........up until about 5 months ago I weighed 108 at my heaviest........which was considerably underweight and no matter how much I tried eating, I couldn't gain........now I'm off the boost (my metabolism runs well enough to maintain weight, just can't easily gain / loose weight.)

Peace Out

I would have to agree with you that they taste disgusting. Especially since I am a picky eater to begin with, I dont like most flavors offered in drink like that. And for the record, I think Slimfast tastes gross too.

Chocolate Boost is delicious. It's like drinking fudge.

heh.

Actually I'm on my way out to get some ice cream and milk and stuff......

But for now I'm enjoying my new location.

Some of you know that I'm temporarily staying with some friends........they have given me a laptop to use while I stay here (which sadly I'll have to say good-bye to when I move).........anyway up until this evening it was set up in the living room (forcing me to show some signs of life)..........but due to circumstances the laptop moved into my room............which means I can now completely hybernate except for meals, work, church and youth group.............

So once I get nice and comfy with hybernation I will emerge.........besides, going out for ice cream not only means leaving my room............but the entire house.........and going 8-[ 8-[ OUT THERE 8-[ *points outside* in public...........me must work up to this idea of going "out there" even though I don't have to go to church or work at this time.

Peace Out

After a week of doing nothing more than walking from the car to the inside of the gas station and back twice a day for a week and eating junk food on the road I'm up to 155.

Peace Out

At school, I am being constantly reminding of "What a tiny thing" I am. I didn't know that having wrists only four inches around was such a novelty. I weigh in between 90 and 95 pounds. But, as my mother and grandmother cheerfully tell me, I'm sure to be over-weight once I get older. :roll: *grumble* :D

I usually don't know (unless I have a doc appointment and they weigh me) and as long as my clothes don't start getting tight on me, I don't really care either.

Peace Out
