    It's Wednesday!

    Hi all -

    Well, I nearly flipped this morning when I came onto the board and wasn't able to post! Dear God, it was REAL WITHDRAWAL!!!!!!!

    I'm having a great day. Great interview for a new job. Sun is shining. Eating well. Couldn't work out this morning because of the interview, but I'll go about 4 p.m.

    I'm feeling a little stiff - probably because of all the consisten exercise I've been getting. That, plus the fact that I can't find my bathing suit and thus can't go to the jacuzzi at the gym. DID ONE OF YOU GUYS STEAL MY BATHING SUIT??????????????? grrrr

    I woke up this morning THIRSTY! Don't remember that ever happening, and it's weird since I drank 140 oz of water yesterday...this ever happen to you?

    Hope you did well in your interview!! Sending new job vibes your way ```

    I know what you mean about withdrawals. I am so nervous about the board switch over this weekend. No support system :no But we can do it!

    Your exercise regimen must be doing the trick, and I promise I did not steal your bathing suit. Though, I do need a new one :yikes

          I'm with you, Sarah - where do we sign up for the figure? I think i will have to wait until next year before i go swimming. Although, we are going to Glenwood Springs, CO in September for my husband's family reunion. Springs = water = bathing suit? What am i going to do??? :yikes

          Worked out this morning and then took the baby to the Dr. She hasn't been feeling well. Turns out she is getting a whole bunch of teeth in at the same time - molars and canines! Poor sweetie...

            Go swimming in Colorado!!!!!
            One thing that I try to remember is this: Do not pass up on the fun memories with your family (child) because of your unhappiness with your weight. I do not want my son (19mo old) to think back on his childhood and say, you know, mom didn't swim with us, or come out and play, or whatever. I really want him to have fond memories. So, I put on that swimsuit, despite that fact that I weigh 270 pounds ( I sometimes feel pretty ridiculous, but I'm working on it).

            We will have those gorgeous figures!!!

            I think are stats are pretty similar. I'm 5'8" my HW 278; CW 272; GW 165

              Yes, I definitely want the figures! :sarcasm

              I know I can look like that... maybe? I'm starting to think that my CCLL is <20 carbs. Everytime I go over, I stop losing or gain. Is this possible? And I'm exercising!

                Thanks, Sarah! You are right. You know, i am ashamed to admit this, but at her first year birthday party i sat outside of everyone else. All the guests were surrounding her in a circle as she opened her presents. I should have been there too, but i was so ashamed of how i looked and there was a video camera there (gasp!) How sad is that? I miss out on a big even because of my selfishness. I feel really bad about that.

                I will swim in CO. I do have a good two and a half months to drop some pounds. You are right, we are at the same weight! That is pretty cool. We can be buddies and cheer each other on... :hug

                  Ok, I sucked it up and got a second bathing suit today - they were on sale at Target. I actually found one that makes me look gorgeous from the ribs up!!!!! woo hoo! (we will NOT discuss from the ribs down, ok?)

                  I go to the beach even when fat. But I don't walk around and when I do take my 30 min walk, I put on a sarong to cover the lower body and pretend like my beefy arms are skinny! VERY self-conscious!

                  Oh, poor teething baby! I used to go thru more baby tylenol during those periods!

                    Good for you, Fin! That is awesome. I love Target. They just have everything.

                    The teething sucks... i feel so bad for her. She is getting so many. She is having some nasty bathroom issues and is not in the greatest of moods. I just gave her some motrin so we'll see how that goes...

                        I agree. Wear a suit and enjoy your kids. I didnt and now that my children are all grown regret that I didnt let go of what I thought other people would think and just break down and get a suit. I was there with them but in shorts and t shirts at the waters edge or in the shallow area when they were young. We did spend lots of time together but it could have been a much more rich experience had I not been worried about what other people thought. Summer before last I bought a suit and we had a blast together all summer. (Just posted in another thread that I bought another one today as a reward for my good start on induction this past week and tomorrow we are going swimming.

                        Finelly, hope that the interview works out for you. I tried to get on here too at one point and was missing not being able to get on.

                          Dragonmoonfly, I will gladly be your buddy! :hug

                          Don't let the first birthday incident drag you down. Just start fresh today and promise yourself that you will not let appearance and weight interfere with the pure enjoyment of your daughter. Its been tough for me, but I refuse to take a back seat where my baby is concerned. I want to be right there with him making new and exciting memories.

                            You are oh-so-right... she is the world to me and i don't want anything to stand in her way. Especially her mom who is acting really silly. I looked in the mirror today and honestly, it isn't that bad. I have some work to do but it could be a lot worse. It is all a matter of perspective i guess.

                            My husband plays guitar in a band and we all went out on Friday night to see him play. My friend brought a friend to the show and she was probably the same size as me. She was absolutely radiant and gorgeous. She made me think... it is how we FEEL about ourselves that matters. I remember being a size 10 and being upset. (And i would just love to be that size now!) So i need to work on my attititude! :yes

                              Dragonflymoon, see, you have started already!! I know what you mean about the sizes we used to be. I'd give anything to be the size I was just a few years ago. Heck, I'd give anything to be the 30 pounds lighter I was last year.
