Ladies....I just have to say how excited I am to check this thread everyday....it's so nice to read about other peoples issues/concerns and to be able to completely relate.....this is such a comfort at the end of my day!!! You girls are the best!!


PS--- How long is 5K??? Since so many people are talking about running it?

---

A 5K is 3.1 miles long! Here is a great site for new runners or people who not run at all and want a training program to build up to a 5K:

Couch to 5K Program!!

Just do it girls!! If I can do it... anyone can do it!

---

A 5K isn't that bad. It's like 30-45 minutes of running. I was told by my orthopedist not to run, but I built up enough muscle in my legs to do it. I am not a physical person at all. I think if I can do it anyone can!!! The couch to 5K program sounds great. Coleen, if you ever want to go running/walking let me know. We are practically neighbors!

I am so sorry by the way that you have had the same experience ...well yours was worse I had two ignore me this time and the other was three ..so you beat me with four....

Don't you wish you were a mystery shopper?? I soooo want to give them a poor grade!

same to you Elise ..

I don't see why you cant complain to the better business bureau about this. And word of mouth wouldn't hurt either. Once someone knows how a person was treated they think twice about going there. To this day I will never step foot in Flowerama on Mrytle Ave. It's been years, but I refuse to ever go back there. They were so stuck up at the time. I remember when I was a BM and I went back for my fitting they ofcourse said I gain weight because the dress didn't fit. In front of everyone too. I was mortified, but kept my cool. I told them really, I think you need to re measure me then. I've lost weight, so I knew it wasn't me. In fact I went down a size from the last time I was there, so who was the A$$ now.

Welcome! I'm over in Kew Gardens Hills!

Hey Girls,

I missed the last few days so I am trying to catch up and see how everyone is doing!! All is well here thanks to everyone for the cat support!! He is doing much better. Well this is the week I am sending out my inviations!!!!! I am very excited and this is the permanet turning point once you send them out its reality!!!! I need some help from my fellow brides. I looked on my registry today and i am starting to see a lot of gifts being purchased. My wedding is in June and I am not trying to be a snoop but when would you think the bridal party is??? I need to buy something to wear and no one is even giving me a clue. My FH doesn't even know. So i need to take a poll of when this party may accure. Also I lost 12 pounds!!!! and my are that I complain about arms finally looking some what normal....human even ha ha ha ha

Congrats on the wight loss. Great job!! As far as bridal shower. I would probably say it would be around April or early May . Usually 1 to 2 months before.
