I just don't need to feel that bad about myself. <BR/><BR/>UmmAbdurRahman- InshAllah I will definitely stop by tonight, I was hoping when I emailed you last night that I'd be able to see you because I don't know when you will be coming back from Algeria and I will inshAllah be leaving for Egypt in June. So I wanted to catch you before you left, especially since now that I know exactly who you are, you were one of the sisters I was always looking forward to seeing but never saw. So I'm super excited to see you tonight inshAllah. <BR/><BR/>You and margaret and rebecca are the ones I miss and never see. <BR/>*sad face*Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00501121330101103343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-19114787710607378202008-03-27T22:33:00.000-05:002008-03-27T22:33:00.000-05:00hey molly, when does the free enrollment offer end...hey molly, when does the free enrollment offer end?

Yasir and I were just talking about this today...we were just standing in the bathroom and we both looked in the mirror and said, "jeez we need to workout" LOL. I think it's a good idea to track by inches lost rather than pounds, ESPECIALLY since when you workout you pack muscle which weighs more than fat.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00015035251674973186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-55393196206407007732008-03-26T23:54:00.000-05:002008-03-26T23:54:00.000-05:00That's hot cuando dices Oy Vey XDThat's hot cuando dices Oy Vey <BR/><BR/>XDJ Levhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12636658639471008341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-36476909857333912852008-03-26T20:42:00.000-05:002008-03-26T20:42:00.000-05:00Amie- YOU HAVE A BLOG!!!!! woot.

InshaAllah I wanna join a gym when I get a better paying job (also inshaAllah), but for now it's going to be running 'round the track for me. Unfortunately, I tripped on the stairs and sprained my ankle (wee!) so I'll be out of commission for a few days. But yay! I'm so happy for you and glad to know I'm not alone. : *Amiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16205065233508230634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-28415703655911935792008-03-26T19:35:00.000-05:002008-03-26T19:35:00.000-05:00Rahma- sorry mised that part of your comment, we s...Rahma- sorry mised that part of your comment, we should totally hang out this weekend inshAllah. I'd love to go to An-nur again, but its kind of far, omg! wait guess what! I'm going to be working downtown proper starting next week, I think I won't be far from where you work! We'll compare statistics in an email. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Janene- I think it had more to do with the glass doors because I saw more muslimahs removing it to work out than ones keeping it on. I'll personally remove it and if they don't let us know when maintenance guys are coming in I will have some serious words with them. I just won't work out with my hijab on, its too much. <BR/><BR/>Safs- InshAllah this summer I'm planning on moving to Egypt for awhile. <BR/><BR/>And yeah, its rude, and akward. When you say no there is always that brief moment of omgwhatdidIsay? and a loo of horror on their face.<BR/><BR/>Although one chick who asked me the same thing when I replied "no" she said "well you look like it."<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately I was at work, otherwise I would have probably subjected her to some senseless violence.Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00501121330101103343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-61284659529437584922008-03-26T19:10:00.000-05:002008-03-26T19:10:00.000-05:00Salaam Alaikum,What is it with people asking if yo...Salaam Alaikum,<BR/><BR/>What is it with people asking if your are pregnant?

Before I could protest, my teacher whipped out a measuring tape and preceded to measure my womanly curves RIGHT THERE in front of class. AND it was a MIXED class! She did it so fast there was no time to utter a word! Very embarassing.<BR/><BR/>P.S. the women wearing hijab in the gym -- a good clue that men do pop in for whatever reason (and perhaps the club does not do their due dilligience regarding signage). I joined a ladies only club and men are in looking for their girlfriend/wifes, men are doing maintenance, men are teaching women classes, etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-65896066539722960702008-03-26T18:00:00.000-05:002008-03-26T18:00:00.000-05:00aww you didn't tell me about those meanies asking ...aww you didn't tell me about those meanies asking you that when you went to Mexico. i got ask that once a few years ago, it was annoying. :/ <BR/>Now I'm just wishing someone would ask me hehe :P <BR/>I went to a womens gym here in Tempe once..

Lifetime sounds so nice!! Insha'Allah I might find one around here, all we have is Curves, and as nice as it is, it gets boring after awhile and I find myself migrating back to the Gym at work although that one is co-ed(male and female). <BR/>Yea, I'm going to Kuwait for 4 months with my job. check out my blog, Insha'Allah soon I will be able to post more details about it soon.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15726881247191088126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-11803511807365850852008-03-26T16:01:00.000-05:002008-03-26T16:01:00.000-05:00Oo, oo, let me talk to the husband and inshaAllah ...Oo, oo, let me talk to the husband and inshaAllah I will get back to you. <BR/><BR/>Did you want to go to jummah again sometime, or get together this weekend?UmmSqueaksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09289001302124742991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-3895568551673449452008-03-26T12:29:00.000-05:002008-03-26T12:29:00.000-05:00Rahma, they asked me if I wanted to sign two frien...Rahma, they asked me if I wanted to sign two friends up for a free two day pass and I thought of you. But I didn't have your info at that moment. I can still sign you up.<BR/><BR/>And I asked about that and they said they do occasionally have maitenance guys, but they always post a lot of signs up letting the women know before the guys come in.<BR/><BR/>I think they kept them on because the front doors are glass that you can see through, but with the way the machines are set up, I will just never use the ones closest to the door, they have more in the corner where no one can see you. You should check it out to see what I mean. <BR/><BR/>Oh and right now they are doing a no enrollment fee discount! usually the enrollment fee is absurd, like $175. All I had to pay is the monthly price and one time admin fee of like $45. All told it came to like $93. <BR/><BR/>Let me know if you want me to sign you up. :)Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00501121330101103343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2311539591983360613.post-19295888405208119582008-03-26T12:18:00.000-05:002008-03-26T12:18:00.000-05:00Did you check to see if it was a true women's only...Did you check to see if it was a true women's only gym, ie there aren't the occasional random guy who wanders through to fix something? That may be why the sisters kept their hijab on.<BR/><BR/>$50 eh?
