I only told 2 ppl, my husband & sister. I feel like I made the right decision for myself. I haven't had any awkwardness at all. I just tell ppl that ask that I am eating less and jogging daily. Both of which are true.

Happy Belated Birthday Chris! You are looking fantastic! Leona I can't wait to see your updated photos too!

I have been jogging every morning for about 2-3 miles on the treadmil and then riding bike at night outside for about 5 miles. My husband is so impressed with me! He actually bought me a new bike for our anniversary Aug. 1, I love it! Its a Trek, which is nice for me and it was fitted specially for me. And now that Ive been so good about jogging, I bought all new work out clothes. I highly recommend doing this to any of you who haven't yet. It makes exercising just even better when you feel cute doing it. Ohh and I bought new roller blades lol. Ok its starting to be clear to me that I have a shopping addiction tied in the exercise addiction.

Im in love with the exercise for sure! Addicted.. lol I wish! I just can't see something that is so healthy for me being termed an 'addiction'. I totally agree that it lifts your mood as much as your butt lol. LOVE LOVE LOVE the exercise!

1- For as long as your doc tells you to. 2- When your doc tells you that you can start eating pureed food is when you can start. 3- Soup, V8, Protien shakes, Juices. 4- I like the atkins shakes and also a product from

I haven't but, I did research to choose a doc that I felt was experienced and could do a good job. You're sis might be right about the doc you chose. See who she recommends perhaps?

Holly, maybe you should suggest to you husband usint a married but looking for sex website to satisfy your needs? Either he will give you permission or tell you no way. But it might lead to him taking your needs more seriously. I would suggest it very matter of fact, not in a super emotional way. One such site that you suggest is The Ashley Madison Agency - Romantic Rendezvous for Attached Adults. Im not saying I think actually doing this is a good idea at alllll. But it might wake him up. Just a suggestion. Best of luck to you. -K.

Aww sorry Nana, I feel so bad for you. It'll happen though. Thank goodness you have faith. Hang in there woman, Ill say a prayer for ya.

Congrats Beachgirl! Welcome to the working out club lol. Im so proud of you. Keep up the good work! Pretty soon you'll be pushing and nudging us to keep on keeping on in the exercise department. You will be amazed how much better you'll feel even during plateaus on the weight loss because your body will start to transform even when the weight doesn't move. yayyyy!

Ok Leona, ((NUDGE)) Im giving you a push lol. Get back to the gym, I don't know if this is true but, I think when you are falling in love or just in lust with a new beau.. those brain chemicals help to make working out more productive lol. And this I know for sure.. the better shape your in.. the better orgasms are lol. Sorry if thats tmi lol but its just truth. lol Good luck!! Ill be watching to see if you post that you are back on track!!!

Hey Mary!! Happy Bandiversary to you too! Im going to PM you! Talk soon, K.

Hey Leona that is AWESOME! We are the same size now! Too bad we didn't live closer together lol we could borrow each others clothes maybe. I totally TOTALLY agree, the key to this weight loss stuff is exercise, your body changes the fastest even when the pounds aren't coming off. Today I bought thong underwear lol, I feel so sexy lol. Sorry if thats tmi lol. But for me it was a great nsv.

Hey Monk, I am so so sorry that you went through that when you were little. That is just atrocious that you 'got in trouble' for telling. It was not your fault, I hope you realize that now. My heart breaks for you, for having went through so many abuses, from the molestor to the baby sitter to your mother to your husband now. You deserved and still deserve better. Every human does. Im so glad that you shared your story, it reached me and affected me and how I will think more deeply about child abuse, and how it affects ppl long into their adult life. I hope you know that you don't have to live in secrecy anymore if you don't want to. People I think are more accepting today and better educated about issues of child abuse.
