Not knowing you personally, all I can say is keep trying the best you can. I know it can be hard to lose and extremely easy to put on. I’ve gone through that myself. My wife was never much of a cookie eater other than Christmas time when she would bake about 7 or 8 different cookies and end up with a couple of hundred. Now that I was getting my weight down to where I want, she started buying pecan sandies, which I like, and just eating 3 or 4 a day, doesn’t help. No won’t power, but plenty of will power – yes, I will have a cookie or two after supper and maybe another couple watching TV. And now we have her brother paying a visit through the weekend and he is a junk-food junkiie. He does get a few pounds overweight, but not what you would call fat. She will make all his favorite foods, like German potato salad, corn – one of the two or three vegetables he will eat. So I’ll have my work cut out this weekend. Anyway, wishing you the best.
You can’t always tell from looking at the screen as “size” can vary somewhat depending on screen size, distance between the projector and screen, etc. TV is even worse. I can select display parameters that will make someone look heavier or thinner. Only seeing a person in real life can you tell. BTW, the wardrobe people have all said her costumes were either a size 6 or 8.
Kip never said he was breaking up with her. See my reply to I’mstanding just above the one above this one. Taking a break is not the same as breaking up. He wants to take for her to reflect on her actions and, maybe, how he wants to proceed. She needs to sit down, take a breath and think about what she needs to do next if she really loves him too.
Tiffany also needs to straighten up and not revert back to Jr/Sr high school where she tried to get every boy that showed an interest in Luann or like knowing Luann was hung up on Aaron and going after Aaron herself. Tiffany was not a nice person in her pre-college years and has shown tendencies to revert back to her old self as what has happened with this Kip situation.
We don’t know that he turned her away permanently, she may be over-reacting, as I seem to recall him saying he loved her. As he said back at the stadium, “consider us on a break” (10/31).
Read it when first ran in the newspapers back in 1997 to end of 2001. Found the strips in a zip file later when AOL used to give 5 hours a month, also found a set of triple x strips, which I believe were actually done by Cho, but could be wrong. I have bern rereading them ever since Arcamax has been “publishing” them.
BTW, one of my best friends joined the naval reserves for 8 years back in the early 50s to avoid being drafted, only to find out later his flat feet would have kept him from being drafted. So he had 8 years of weekly meetings and a 2 week “kiddy cruise” every year, so his 2 week work vacations were already being put to use.
