Flame Free Friday

[lauren9317]

One of my old/close friends is a nice girl but she kind of brags a lot about herself. Sometimes I just think "Are you for real? Are you trying to be annoying?" Ever since I've known her, she has never been shy to talk about how pretty she thinks she is, how people are always staring at her, etc. Kind of weird.

She had a baby 2 months ago and just bragged on FB about how she is "already fitting in my size 1 jeans and am so proud of myself!!!"

Idk, I just thought that was tacky. Am I being too judgy?

[sara76]

No no, not too judgy. I hate her.

Right? I wish I could slap her. Who brags about shit like that?

[lauren9317]

Ha! Sorry. My last comment might have been slightly dramatic. We just had a wine and liquor tasting at work and I'm a little toasted.

Totally. That should be your flameful/flame free. Lush.

. You know I'm kidding right? I'm a bartender. I can't tell you how many times I've drank at work. Not my current job, except when its required. So sad I don't train anymore. We got to taste everything!!

They've started construction on a house diagonal from me, and I have a great view of the construction from my office. Yesterday I guy spent three hours with a leaf blower, blowing dirt off the street. There was not three hours of dirt blowing that needed to happen. I'm not sure if he didn't have anything else to do and he was trying to keep busy OR he didn't want to do his next task, but I was judging his efficiency

I'm totally judging the guys doing my neighbors roof. I know it's hard work and they need breaks but I watch them text on the roof and lay in his grass on lunch. They should be more discreet. They started Monday. I'd be fed up with the pounding by now if I were Mr Neighbor.

Last night I asked the dog trainer if she wanted to move in with us for the next few months - to help us get through some of the hurdles we're having. She thought I was kidding, but we have four empty bedrooms, and the puppy LOVES the trainer.

Training a puppy seems like a lot less work when your parents were the one doing the training. I knew it was going to be work, and we'd be doing it for awhile, but I honestly thought we'd be further along three months into it than we are.

Chilly is just starting to chill out (Haha). She'll be 2 next month. Pepper on the other hand, is an angel. I guess it really depends on the dog.

Can you ask your trainer for tips on the dog stealing baby things? Chilly will take the baby's blanket right off of him if he's in his swing. She's also taken toys, dropped pacis, socks off his feet. I don't know how to make her understand to leave his things alone.

Judgy? No way. My number dislike of Facebook is how attention seeking and braggy people are. It's so obvious when you are posting things just to make everyone envious of how awesome your life or so that you'll get a ton of compliments on how amazing you look.

Exactly. I would be embarrassed to brag like that, it's so gross. No one needs to know how awesome you feel because your pant size is super tiny. It's rude!

And then everyone has to "like" it. Why? I only "like" stuff that I genuinely am happy to hear about. She has always been a size 0-1 so I doubt any of her FB friends "liked" her status so much. I guess ppl just like clicking the like button.

Ok thanks for letting me vent

Are you friends with my SIL?! No, not too judgy. I want to throat punch her when she does shit like that. Wait, did I say that out loud? And I have NOT had any alcohol ;D

That is tacky and you ARE NOT being to judgy! I would want to slap her! I wish i was a size 1, I have never been and will never be. You need to add a 0 or 2 to the end of that 1 to get my pants size! I had a baby 15 months ago and ever since I stopped BFing I have managed to gain 10-15 pounds back from my pre-pregnancy weight. It sucks!!!! I tried on 2 pairs of jeans today and wanted to cry. I could get them buttoned but the muffin top was more like a donut/intertube around the top of my pants. Boo hoo! Thats my FFFC.

Every time I hear someone say they gain 10 pounds after they stop breastfeeding I die a little inside. I've gained 15 while breast feeding. I need to lose 25.

I think the problem was that when I was BFing I would eat like a cow because I was so hungry. Then when I stopped I did not change my eating habbits and still eat the same way. I really need to cut my portion size in half for sure! Its just so hard because I BF for 9 months so I got used to that. I am going to work on it.
