  1. Nothing here, but everyone is different so that doesn't mean much. :confused:
  2. 50lbs! Wow!!! Congratulations, that's fantastic!!!
  3. I generally don't lose my boobs til last. I could definitely stand them to go down in size about now! LOL
  4. I'm going to sound like all I do is watch TV, but that's not true. I TiVO everything and skip through commercials and boring bits. (like biggest loser last night, I FFd through all the recaps, I already know all that stuff lol). ANYWAY, Survivor, Idol, Biggest Loser are my 3 reality shows. Then I watch CSI: LV and Miami, LOST, Eli Stone (loooove that one!), 24. I think that's it?
  5. That happens to me, too. I bat around the same 2 pounds, then go down. Then bat around a new 2 pounds. It's maddening!!!
  6. Now, see, fries and chicken I have no problems with. However, I suspect it's because of the time of the day that I'm eating this stuff. I could probably eat Wheat Thins at night. And I could probably not eat french fries in the morning.
  7. I had no idea what you were talking about til I read the whole thread. :confused:
  8. She was frighteningly thin, eh? But, good for her beating those guys!!! I was sooooo happy for Bernie!!!
  9. I was a big baby, too. 10lb 4oz. My babies were all big, as well. Although, #4 was a whopping 11lb 10oz baby and is now a total waif of a 5 year old. In fact, he didn't triple his birth weight until he was 3.
  10. Just FYI, my husband provides 30 minutes of aerobic exercise per session.
  11. The only problem I've had is with Wheat Thins of all things. Finally, the 3rd time, I was like "why do I eat these??" I know a lot of it has to do with the time of day I was trying to eat them (morning snack or lunch), because I'm super tight then. But geez, I'm not a fast learner, am I? lol
  12. I used to always give my ex hell for being older than me (7 months). Then I remarried and my current husband is 3 years younger than I am. Dammit. lol
  13. Awesome! You look fab, and WAY cuter than the boob grabbing lady!
  14. Do we need to send tripod to the sex thread?
  15. I think anyone can survive a week or 2 of eating stuff they don't "like". Just keep the goal in sight and white knuckle it through. It's definitely not easy, but when you get to the pre-op diet stage, you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Time to commit to your new life, you can do it!
  16. This fight seems to have gotten out of hand :smile2: Everyone does the best they can under the circumstances that they are presented with. I'm a SAHM now (mostly, although I do photography - I can sort of set my own hours with that) because my dh works 80 hours a week to make that happen. When that wasn't possible, I worked. My neighbor home schools, and believes that is best for her and her family. That doesn't mean she thinks I'm failing my kids because they go to public school. Just like I don't think mothers who work are failing their kids because they aren't staying home with them, because that's what I do. Everyone has a different situation, and we are only in our own, not in anyone else's. And we're doing the best we can with what we have.

    They lost me at the price. :smile2:
  18. Well, I'm not sure if that's true or not. Everyone heals at a different rate, so it's hard to say if they started too soon or not. I can't, however, imagine WHY someone would 'cheat' on their post op diet. I was scared to death I was going to slip my band or something! Hell, I eat carefully even now, 2 months later! I didn't stick to my post-op because I was a model patient, I stuck to it because I was terrified not to!!!
  19. Not me, I was super thin as a child. Then a normal sized teenager. Moderately sized young adult. Then I had a baby and it's been downhill ever since. Even though I've taken the baby weight off, it's always come back and more.
  20. Try TJ Maxx and Marshalls. Maybe not the newest releases, but they have some cute name brand stuff for cheap! I got my very favorite jeans ever there for $20 and they are Tommy Hilfiger (I also just bought some TH jeans at their outlet for $20 - they are the one brand that fits me well!). I almost wept when they got too big for me, then I found a pair in my new size on eBay. Whew! Anyway, try TJ Maxx or Marshalls. :smile2:
  21. I did buy a fatty seat, so I'm hoping it's gentler on my girly parts (see my other thread for why... =D)
  22. Maybe I can get a litterbox and then put tootsie rolls in it. LOL
  23. Well the first bit is obvious. The numbers and letters are because I have 4 boys and 1 girl. 4b1g. And this is my username EVERYWHERE. Dh says I just did that so I wouldn't have to have anymore babies (he still wanted one lol). Sorry, can't have one, will screw up username.
  24. Well, it started with my husband and me making fun of him, but anytime I hear anyone say "all the sudden" instead of "all of a sudden", it irritates me. My way may not even be the right one, but it still bugs me when anyone says it not my way. LOL
  25. R-O-F-L at that banana smiley!
