:rotfl: ever dreamt that you are about to stuff your face with something you well know you aren't supposed to be eating because you are on a diet............then you take a huge bite and all of a sudden the piece turns into glass or nails and you can feel it coming down your throat and choking
Talk about crazy dreams..........:chuckle

Hi Jessica! :) Night before last I dreamt I was served a salad with my meal. The salad LOOKED good, but there were "things" moving around in the salad. As I looked closer, the salad had black slimy worm shaped objects crawling around in the salad with moving mushrooms. :uhoh3: I still don't know what all that was about! :rotfl: Anyone care to interpret Jess and my dreams? :rotfl:

I went to the gym today, did weights and 40 minutes of aerobics. I excercised my mind with one chapter on Epidemiology. :) Tonight it's bowling.

Renee, black slimy worm objects? I have no idea what that could mean. :)

Tweety - sounds like you got an EXCELLENT workout today! Good for you!

I was going to go walk with dd and dgs about 15 minutes ago until the neighbor came over with his dogs and stepson all excited about taking my dgs with him on a quick jaunt around the CORNER from our house to see the ALLIGATOR he spotted in one of the lakes nearby. :eek: :eek: :eek: Needless to say....this granny stayed home! :uhoh21: :rotfl: I'm NOT going walking in a neighborhood with alligators! That's our Aussie buddy - Steve Irwin's job! :rotfl: Think I should give Steve ol' buddy a call to come get this alligator out of our neighborhood? :chuckle

So.....here I be in front of the 'puter instead. :rotfl:

Yikes! I'll pass on the creepy crawlers myself. I used to have a book on dreams and what they meant but whatever happened to it beats me. :)

Interesting though:p

I used to have one of those dream interpretation books. Never did make a lot of sense of them.

As far as the black slimy things, I don't know. Might be a symbol of diet sabatoge?

I had a really weird dream once that one of my charge nurses was in. I told her about it and she asked her mother who was "old country Asian." And boy did she give a good accurate interpretation of my dream. Some people can just do that.

Today is my WW weigh in at noon. It isn't going to be a good one though. Ah well. I just keep plugging away.

Now that my foot's finally healed I have been doing my treadmill, gradually increasing speed. Not that I'm very fast.

Tweety, BSN, RN · Jan 31, 2006

Yesterday was my weigh in and I'm down two weeks from the week prior! (I cheated and weighed in early so I'm only down one pound since I last bragged above).

I'm going to yoga class tonight and hope to eat healthy today.

Renee, I wouldn't ever swim in any of the lakes here because of the possibility of gators. Don't take the dogs near the water either because they would make a good lunch. I have been canoeing on one of the rivers here and seen small gators. I'm not a fan of them.

MMMmmm.... gator!

I hear it tastes like chicken.

UM Review RN, ASN, RN · Jan 31, 2006

Now y'all know I'm just kidding, don't you?

Glad everyone's doing so well.

Renee, no more crazy dreams for you! Yours has everyone stumped. All that comes to my mind is the thought that if your salad isn't washed properly, "bugs" can grow on it. Hence, the large bugs on the leaves??

Or maybe not.

UM Review RN, ASN, RN · Jan 31, 2006

Jess, I'm thinking yours is like a dieter's dream--you want the food, it tastes good, but you know after it goes down, it's really not good for you?

Just a thought.

With images like yours and Renee's in my head, even I could lose a couple of pounds.

Sooo......anyone have any good nightmares about chocolate lately?

live4today, RN · Jan 31, 2006

kat - hope your weighin brings a smile to your face. if it doesn't, don't become discouraged. just keep on doing what you're doing! :balloons:

jessica - i had salad for dinner last night along with beef stroganoff. i didn't even think about the salad i dreamt about. good thing too - otherwise, i wouldn't have eaten it. :chuckle

tweety - have a good time in yoga class tonight.

angie - i've tasted fried gator before...fried frog legs, too. they both have a similar taste to chicken. :coollook:

i haven't dreamed about "chocolate" before - at least i don't remember having done so. :idea: of course, you've now planted that thought in my head, so tonight's dream just might be about "chocolate".

Tweety, BSN, RN · Feb 1, 2006

They eat gator around here, although I haven't had any. I have had conch fritters in Key West. :)

Renee, that's some odd looking chocolate. But perhaps that's what your dream is about. :)

I'll eat healthy today, but no workout as I'm working a 12-hr shift today.
