Because I am sooooo sick of everyone saying "wow, your kids are SO cute, When is this one due?"

I cannot believe what pregnant looking belly I have!!!

I swear to god NOTHING will get me off of this plan.... my NEW WOL.

I just finshed dinner on my 5th day and I am feeling fine! I already can tell I am a tiny bit smaller! A pair of pants I had that mostly fit..fit really good when I am standing now.... and mostly when I am sitting..SO..maybe after next week they will just plain old "fit"

I am so so so thankful to have found this site!!!! Cannot wait to weigh myself after my first 2 weeks to see what I have accomplished!

Hi and welcome! You sound like you are determined to succeed. Start a journal, it is an excellent way to track your progress and interact with other members.

ok! I started a journal and added the link to my siggy!

good night all!!! see you on day 6 for me!

Welcome! Glad to have you with us.

Welcome, Jessica!!! Stick with your new WOL and before you know it you'll 'deliver' all your excess weight.

glad to se your doing so good jessica and i'm glad to see how determined you are,keep up that great positive attitude

Welcom Jessica! I love your attitude! I am fairly new to this site too and I love it. Everyone here is wonderful.

Isn't it evil how carbs go to your tummy? I saw Suzanne Sommers on a TV show and she said anyone with a big belly eats too many carbs. How true!

I don't want to look prego anymore either (until it's time for #3)

same here!!! I want a #3 but am scared to death to get pregnant...ever since I dont want to mess myself up here and when I get to goal...welll I obviously am not going to want to get FAT again! oooooyyyyyy

Know what I hate? I weighed 178lbs AFTER I gave birth to my daughter 8 years ago.. Ok.. So where in the HECK did these extra 100 come from?? I have to agree with you Wenzday! I am on this until I am down to 160 come h-e-double hockey sticks or highwater! What I hate is I gone back to a job that I had left for 2 years, when I came back the FIRST thing my old co-workers said.. "My GOD! You've put on some weight!"
Well! Thank you for REMINDING me! Phew, lucky THEY said something or it would have gone unnoticed!! It made me feel like crud.
You know, i've gone on A LOT of diets, was in the final stages of Gastric Bypass Surgery (that was a no-go when I left my job-thank god!). I am still SHOCKED that I have actually LOST WEIGHT.. I did "cheat" 2x when I first started, but since re-starting, no cheating. The weight loss has got me pumped and ready for more. This is ACTUALLY WORKING. Maybe one of these days i'll have the guts to post my picture and not be in fear of scaring someone off ..

Take care and KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

I have had that happen to me so many times, being mistaken for being pregnant. It used to embarass me to no end but I would just smile and walk away, and then I got hateful, and would say, "Excuse me? I'm not pregnant" and get to see thier face turn red. It's deffinately made me not want to ask ANYONE when they are due, cause you just really never know!

Ok, there's my 2 cents. ha ha

Also, welcome to the forum and I wish you lots of success in your journey!

Thanks!!! you are doing awesome too!!!! Oh 20 pounds off MUST feel great...even if we do have a long ways to go. please start a journal so we can talk more!

Oh my go yes this has happened to me many times, especially as my legs and arms were ok, I had a huge tummy, still do have a big one. So I was ALWAYS getting that. I almost cried when I read your post coz it brought back lots of horrible memories. I swear I will never be fat again.
