Beautiful! Thanks for sharing these!

Looking fantastic Nikkee!!!! Great job!!!

I was just thinking about you a few days ago and wondered how you were. I'm glad you made it through the move unscathed. Those moves can be killers! Good to see you again!

So sorry to hear of this. My deepest sympathies go out to you Nancy.

Best of luck and congratulations!

I'm sitting here LMBO Paula!!! Sorry to laugh, but that's hilarious!!!!

I had the same thing happen to me with 2 of my incisions. MY doctor ended up pulling them out at my 1 month check up. It wasn't a big deal.

I LOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVE your little girl's outfit Jane!!! Did you make that? If so, I'd be willing to pay you in the future to make my one day daughter's dress just like it!!! I was literally sitting here going OOOOHHHH!!! And it was enough to make my husband look over at me and say, "What?!?!"

Happy Birthday! Have a great one!!!

Keep up the great work! Wonderful!!!

Ugh! So glad you brought this up! I think that Lindsey Lohan looks sick!!! She looked so beautiful at 140 pounds. I would beg and borrow to be 140 pounds!!! Now she is 115 I think they said. Have you seen her face and her mid section? She really looks sick now! It's so sad!!! I believe that some people really are built smaller and that's just how they are. Like take Jennifer Aniston for example. I've always thought that she looked fine and healthy for her height/build. And if you noticed, I believe that she's always been thin too. But when you see someone like Lindsey who is a naturally curvy babe, turn into some emaciated looking thing, it's just so so very sad.

Not sure what we're doing over the weekend. But Monday the 4th is my son's birthday, so we'll be having immediately family together at my mom and dad's that day. We're having cake & ice cream, then opening gifts, then having a small firework display. It should be a blast!!! I'm sure that Saturday and Sunday will consist of cookouts of some kinds at our families' homes, thus lots of yummy food to eat. Oy!!!!

I have to agree with everyone. Although I've never had a fill either, if I could only exist on liquids I would know that something was TERRIBLY wrong. (Because I can eat 2 pieces of pizza and 2 bread sticks in one sitting with no complications!) If someone here is experiencing this and has not yet called your doctor, please do so IMMEDIATELY!!!! This does mean that something is incredibly wrong!!! Listen to your body, and listen to your band, please! It's for your health and your life!!!

Aw Crystal. It's ok. You look like such a happy and nice person! I looooooooovvvvvvve the 2nd one. It shows off your pretty smile and character.

Here are a few more that I found today: "Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved." -Helen Keller "The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death." -Thomas Paine

I guess I forgot to say how much I want to lose. I'm 287 starting, and I'd like to be 275 at the end of the 10 weeks. I can do this! Even without a fill!!!!

I get tighter during that time too! And since I have no fill, it's pretty much the only time I feel REAL restriction.

You're definately in my thoughts girl! And I just said a prayer for you too!

That IS thought provoking, isn't it! I'll never forget the time that I was thinking about how much I missed my great - grandma. She was one of the coolest great- grandmas that anyone could have. She used to let me go down to her basement and pick out a jar of canned cherries, then put what I wanted in a bowl and sprinkle some sugar on top. That was one of the highlights of my visits with her. Well I had just been thinking about how much I missed grandma, and that night I had the most memorable dream about her. I was walking by her house with a friend of mine and we were on our way to school. We went into her sunporch and she leaned out the door and said, "Hi sweetie! Where are you 2 headed off to?" And I then told her school, but that I wanted to stop by and say hi to her first. I'll never forget how vibrant the colors were in that dream, and how clearly I remember it all. She had the biggest smile I've ever seen and she was so happy to see me, as I was her. I remember her giving me a hug as my friend and I left too, and the warmth that I felt during our short visit. I'll never forget that dream, and it makes me believe that my great - grandma is extremely happy in heaven.

OMG Paula! That is HILARIOUS!!! I forbid Don to grab me in front of Dylan, because I don't want Dylan to think that that's ok to do to mommy. So far Don has been pretty good about remembering not to do it, but on occassion I have to swat his hands for being a bad BAD man! LOL

Ok. I went into the site and put down what my current weight is, but you must have to put the starting weight. It's 287 for me please. I can't wait to see some results and work hard at this!!!

Here's one of my favorites: We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit."-Aristotle

Paula - Your kids are so adorable!!! I know I've told you this before, but they are!!! I so adore little Philip, and everytime I see him I want to scoop him up and sqeeze! And Marcus is such a sweet and tender hearted boy as well. He's a cutie pie too! And of course AnnMarie is a beautiful little girl too! And you can tell Mike that your friend Kelly said he's hot! LOL You are one lucky woman! But you're beautiful too, so you 2 go perfectly together! Have a great day sweets!

Aw. That IS sad. I really wanted to go too, but we just don't have ANY extra money. (As is with a lot of people here in MI) I so looked forward to meeting a lot of great people from here, but maybe some other time I will be able to do just that! You 3 are great for even trying to plan an event like that, and I give you all major kudos for all of the hard work that you put into it. And like you said, you have all become like family, so all is not lost. Thanks to all of you who put in time on planning that event. You all deserve a huge round of applause!

Piercedqt78 - I looooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvve the picture of your little girl!!! She is so adorable!!!! And what cute pics of you Donali!!! You were and are cute! Everyone is looking great!!!!
