i read your blog and felt like i had written it myself. You are so honest which is the first step. Keep on going. you can do this.

i understand about the journaling. I can't find time either and i know thaat is a key to knowing what i put in my mouth. i am a nibbler and snacker so i need to keep track better.

I feel for you. I am quite a bit older, have two children, 27 and 20. the age difference is that i had about 5-6 miscarriages in between my two children. those were the most painful times of my life. My doctors told me to stop... give it up. but is was determined and along came my son who is now 20, There is a great book by Johnathon shur, about getting pregnant after miscarriages. Read the book, make sure you see a specialist, and focus on getting healthy. A lower weight on your part will ensure a healthier pregnancy. I got pregnant successfully after I lost weight both times. My weight continues to be an albatross around my neck. 56 pounds in one year is a fantastic weight loss. You want it to stay off and make healthy life choices. keep going, don't give up. You are doing great. please write back if i can be of any support to you.

i hope you get approval soon.

i have done that also. i am two days away from surgery after a 10 month process. I am expereiencing flu like symptoms which i attribute to nerves. i am anxious but nervous about this new venture in my life. Good luck to you.
