Thoughts For Thursday!

I found this article on BMI on Jezebel. Which I like to call ,
seventeen mag has a BMI Calculator WTF I had no idea what a BMI calculator was up until last year when I started my weight loss journey *note toself weighself this wk*. The post talks about how on the magazines website for "seventeen" there is a BMI calculator.

UNBELIEVABLE

With all the weight issues that teenage girls are facing now a days I find it completly unacceptable for a magazine targeted to TEENAGES print things that should maybe be found in more "grown up" magazine like cosmo FFS. I remember reading this magazine when I was a kid, and pulling out the pin up posters of all the celeb boys I had crushes for, or my favorite cast memebers for my favorite tv shows. I ripped out hundreds of DYI clippings, and read my horriscope. I DID NOT buy a teeneage magazine to inquire things about my health and weight.

However maybe your thinking that a teenager knowing there BMI might be helpful, and that it could be a positive thing, but isnt that why people are suppose to be taking there CHILDREN to doctors, because lets not forget "17" is a far cry away from being a adult, and fully aware of your body. Most teenagers now adays are so self obbsessed,adults to - but this post isnt related to that, its related to the fact that the BMI on the seventeen website is wrong!

A teenager name Shirley Wang whos 17 is recovering from anorexia, on the website she found it shows a chart claiming 14.8 to be in the healthy BMI range for an 18-year-old (she's closer to 18 than 17). However when compared to U.S goverment BMI chart it states "Based on the height and weight entered, the BMI is 14.8 , placing the BMI-for-age below the 1st percentile for girls aged 18 years 0 months. This teen is underweight and should be seen by a healthcare provider for further assessment to determine possible causes of underweight."

ANYONE ELSE IS A ISSUE WITH THIS, and we wonder why theres so many eating/weight issues with teenage girls. This magazine had NO REASON at all to post this is there, the fact that I know 17 yr olds, who read this magazine and are concered about there weight(with no need to be). They think is info's correct, there teenages there not going to google the correct info and compair it with a chart in a magazine. These teenagers trust them, just like I trust cosmo for the perfect sex tips, and pimple tips without googling to confirm them.

Oh and incase your wondering they do have a disclaimer, “FYI: BMI is the best do-it-yourself way to figure out if your weight is healthy. But the most accurate tool is a growth chart analysis and body fat test at a doctor's office.” -


However I wonder how many teenagers actually read that part!However, the BMI isnt the only thing seventeen pisses me off about. Another is the quizs that I saw, RIGHT BESIDE the BMI also are yoiu too focused on food, are you nutrition lable expert ? ...SERIOUSLY ..WHAT.THE. FUCK!

Topic Tuesday

Im linking up with Lauren over at,


For


This weeks topic :
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Thats easy.

Because I haven't seen this man right here

since last year, the distance doesnt change us so im greatfull for that. But hes always talking about how AAMZING abby is, and how much he loves it there. And how much he wants me to see. Hes really found a great set of friends by the sounds of things, and they all seem to really be there for him. Not that any of them could replace me, but it makes me feel more comfortable knowing that he has a support group there!

So my fellow bloggers,
Where would you go?!

AAAAAAAARGOS

Its that time again .. Im doing my weekly recap with Sami



Friday,
I ended up picking up an extra shift for some xmas cash by working on my day off. After work I went to my moms house and meet up with Sarah. We headed to my house to get ready to go out for the night. We ended up going to predrink at her friends place, and going to the bar for a bit. Around midnight Sarah aka cinderella, left to go home because she wanted to get some sleep for her shift the next day. I however was in the mood to party, and so was my brother. So i headed back over there for more drinks with him and his friends. We headed to another bar for a bit, then back to his place. I got home around 3 and headed to bed.

Saturday,
I was suppose to start work at 10, but that didn't go as planned. I got there a 2.. before I went over I hungover with Farmer for a bit at my bros. After my shift I went back to my brothers with Farmer and hung out there for awhile, relaxing an taking it easy seeing how I was hungover as shit. But my brother the champ, was working on round 2. So I bought a 6 pack and joined in for a grand total of 2 beers before I headed home calling it a night.

Sunday,
I was planning on going home and getting some much needed sleep, however more beer, food and good friends changed my mind. My friend from high school Scotty invited me over to his buddies place to watch the grey cup. Every time Im with scotty its a good time.
Just check out our faces!

I brought sarah with me, and we all had a blast laughing and drinking until about 3 am when I thought we better head home, since we both work in the AM. I ended up crashing at Amy's house last night so I wouldn't have to cab back home. So it was I had a nice visit this morning with my boys before they headed to school.

How was weekend, as drunk eventful as mine!

Friday Letters.

Welcome to "Friday Letters" Be sure to join the link up with Ashley


Dear Audri,
Since I dont say it enough. You ARE MY BESSSSSSSSST FRIEND! whom I love to drink with, hoe with, talk with, bitch with, and do nothing with.

Dear Jay,
Would you make some new, of age friends. This girls who little boys you hangout with are beyond fuckin stupid!

Dear Aunty,
Dont make promises you cant keep, and except me to understand. When you tell me your flying here to help me get help for my brother, and then you never show. Dont call no responce at all. Seeing how ive already been thru so much with family and trying to get Jay help I thought you of all people should understand that

Dear John,
Thank you so much, I dont know what I would do with out your help.

Dear Ryan,
I've done EVERYTHING for you. Anything you fuckin asked of me I did it. I lied for you and covered you ass in every situation. I picked you up from jail at 3am when you had no one else. I drove you the 3 hours to spend 2 hours with your son. Im the one who put my ass on line by lying under oath for you, by driving around drugs in my car for you. And you repay me by stealing $450 I gave you to pay for a loan. A loan thats now outstanding and im being sued for the grand amount of $1450, but what do you care. You left for alberta, your not around here anymore. I dont say this often, but I hate you.

Your My BFF Because ...

This is my main hoe!

Last nigh that hoe brought up a valid point, I don't really talk about her as often as a should, and I needs to stop talking about the farmer so damn much - not my fault he's entertaining..

So here it goes.

We met when were wittle babies! Our parents lived in the same building, which is just at the end of her current st * Random I know* Anyway long story short we became best friends after that bitch gave my blue crayon back, but I drank the last juice box so really I had it comming ;)

We went to kindergarden & elementry together * For the most part* In highschool we started to drift apart, guess we were just two different people. Or as she likes to say, she was in a bad place and didnt want me "the good one" to see her - long story short, a few years later she clean up her act and we started spending more and more time together again.

Theres no one I laugh harder with, No friend I love more * Your equal with Tony, I just cant pick!*, No one who listens to me bitch and cry more then you!

You are my sunshine when clouds are gray, you'll never know dear how much I love you, So don't take my sunshine away!

Weekend Recap!

Its that time again .. Im doing my weekly recap with Sami Today, which seems to be the only thing I've posted in a week sorry guys, Ill try and be a better blogger :p!!



Friday,
I was off all day and relaxed in bed till about 3pm. IT WAS GREAT! I got ready and headed to hang with my brother Jordan at his place. I was planning on going to visit Tabby that night but I had to wait on Farmer to pick me up, so I started drinking early, as in with dinner. By the time Farmer got there at 1130, I was "wasty Pants". He dropped me off at Tabbys and her and Ihad some drinks and headed to the local bar to hangout. After the bar, farmer came back over and the 3 of us hungout for a few hours. A few friends from highschool came over and as it turns out there friends with Farmer too! We stayed up untill the wee hours drinking and laughing. Around 4 Rob came home, at first he wasnt to impressed at the house full of people just getting off work I cant blame him. After awhile he calmed down, and was having fun with the rest of us. Not to long later Farmer drove the girls home and Me and everyone else went to bed.

Saturday,
I went to hangout with Hudson for a little bit. My goodness hes so smart last week I dont even thing I ever heard him say the word rectangle, and this week hes drawing them and explaining the difference between that and a square. He also kinda learnt the concept of money, he can tell me the difference between a penny,a dime,and quarters. Makes you realize it really is the small things you take for granted. Later that afternoon Geoff gave me a lift back to town and I hung out at my moms. I was planning on going home that night, however I was just way to tired so I just relaxed there for the night. Then I remember what it was to be a 20 yr old again partying on a weekend, I swore my brother and his friends came in and out 1500 times in the middle of the night. To the point where I had to tell some of them to peace the fuck out, and not come back for the rest of the night. Mind you it was 330am!!

Sunday,
I hungout at my moms untill it was time to go to work, only for a 4 hour shift. I know I works so hard, actually I do. Hints the lack of posts lately :p. After work i went home to finally straighten my hair, bought a really good one like 2 years ago, its been at my amys for like a year cuz tabbys was better, even though i paid $200 for mine!! Ahh well, i relaxed to "Dawsons creek" for the rest of the night.

So my fellow hoes, how was ur weekend?!

Hope everyone had a good weekend, be sure to stop by tomorrow when I post about my weekend, or later this week when I do some more eCard posts.

Weekend Recap

Welcome To My "weekend Recap" with Sami



Friday,
After work I was suppose to hangout with a really good friend from high school, but because growing up sucks she spent the morning at the clinic with a sick kiddo, meaning she didn't get to work the mooring and had to work the afternoon shift. she had to cancel. Instead I use the extra time to get ready to get shit faced at Tabby & Robs * OH MY GOD, side note danielle I just noticed I didn't go over to ur place to get my scanty order,sorry!!* Anyway Farmer & I went over to drink our faces off. Tab was still working, but one of robs friends was there so I hangout with the boys, and grabbed food! Where I got a nerd 101 lesson about, hammer heads ..or war heads, I really don't know. Because its dorky and I don't care, but its pretty cute to here farmer go on about something he thinks I'm understanding. When Tabby got home she brought my friend Kate whom I LOVE and haven't seen in FOREVER! We continued drinking and a few hours later I suggested street frisbee in the park. We stayed out for about an hour, then headed back to the house. We ended up staying up until about 830am, when Farmer went home to bed, so did I and everyone else.

Saturday,
I spent saturday night at Tabby & Robs again, because tabby told me she would eat my face miss me if i left. We relaxed that night seeing how no one woke up until 5pm. Audri came over around 8, and we headed to visit her step dad for about an hour who was TRASHED but its okay I LOVE drunk danny, he makes me laugh so hard! We also ran into little rick who we try and avoid overtime we see him, but no go this time. After hanging out there we went back to Tabby & Robs to continue drinking. Audri headed back to her sisters who was SOOO RUDE said audri couldn't stay past 11 was nice enough to let audri come over, and then Robs old work friend just moved back from AB so she came over for a while and played some drinking games with her. About 3 we called it a night.

Sunday,
I woke up around noon and got my Amy & Pock to give me a lift home. It was the most Ive seen them, or hudson in 2 weeks I def missed them, and the 20 min drive wasn't long enough. Hopefully I see them this weekend!! When I got home I rushed around and got ready for work. Which I HATE by the way. At least once a week im crying at work cause my tool and shit arent working right but ur still expected to do ur job while getting chewed out when shit isnt done right. After work my mom had me over for dinner. She made meat loaf was pretty good if I do say so myself ;). I headed back to my place around 10, then bed shortly after. All in all it was a good weekend.

How was urs??

oh and YES i did noticed im 2 weeks behind on posts! come by tonight i may have some new stuff. No promises, Im DVD hunting I may spend the night watching movies :p
