I am with you!!! I am a 36yr old married mom. I have struggled with my weight for what seems like my whole life. I have a great support system in my family( my wonderful husband and 2 beautiful teenage daughters). I am a self-sabotager (I just learned this....). I want/need to lose a minimum of 64 lbs ( I have lost 23 lbs so far). So if I can get 30 lbs off by Christmas I will almost be there!!!! (Edit: adding stats) SW:236 CW:213 GOAL (weight by Christmas):183

Take care of yourself....I had Mono when I was a freshman in high school. I ended up in the hospital for 7 days and out of school for 3 months because of it. The Mono I had went to my liver and caused it to swell so much it almost ruptured. I will have to be careful of certain foods for the rest of my life because of it. SO LISTEN TO THE DOCTOR.......... |

| The Lounge | Marriage. | Aug 12 2008 19:36 (UTC) |

My DH and I met in October 1987 at a school dance. He was a junior and I was a sophomore. His cousin was one of my best friends and she talked him into dancing with me. He ended up taking both of us home after the dance. After that night we didn't see each other (even though we just lived 7 miles apart) until the next year when our schools started co-oping classes and we both ended up taking the same computer class. One Friday while we had free time in class and we were sending IM's back and forth he asked me what I was doing that night. I had a date so I told him I was busy. (I was dating a guy but was looking for a reason to break up with him). He then asked me what I was doing the next night. I told him "I'm not sure" and he said "Good, I'll be at your house at 7 to pick you up". So that Friday night I broke up with the other guy. We have been together ever since. We got married June 1991. |

| One is a PayDay Loan company. My husband wants me to open a small restraunt. Something that is only open from like 5am- 2pm daily. We have 1 restraunt in our town but it is horribly overpriced and dirty. |

| Weight Loss | has anyone tried byetta? | Feb 14 2008 15:05 (UTC) |

| My husband was just recently put on Byetta for his Type 2 diabetes. He was on Metformin for almost 2 yrs. Now he is doing both. Not only has the Byetta helped his blood sugar (It use to run in the 200's at all times and now it is in the normal range at ALL times)but He feels better - his appetite has decreased(which is good - he needs to lose 50lbs)-His moodiness is pretty much gone.... Also he has fought athletes foot (or so we thought) for several years with nothing helping(believe me we've tried everything) - and that is COMPLETELY cleared up. He hasn't weighed himself since he was first put on the Byetta but he says he thinks he has lost a few lbs. As someone else said Byetta is NOT insulin. It helps your body regulate on it's own. Our insurance is paying for my husband's prescription but that is only because he is a diabetic - they won't pay for it otherwise. It is pretty expensive. The doctor told my husband that alot people are insulin resistant or borderline and never know it. So if you are on it for weight loss and it's working for you - maybe you needed it..... |

| During the week for lunch I usually eat a Healthy Choice or Smart Ones meal. It's quick and it's simple. To combat the sodium I just drink and extra glass or two of water. I usually also have a piece of fruit with it. | |||

| Thanks awmsbailey!! and everyone else!!
I think I will just have her bag them up and we will get rid of them - That will make her feel tons better!! I guess I didn't stop to really think about how she was feeling...I was just too excited about getting out of the plus sizes. |

| Weight Loss | My daughter is so mad at me..... | Apr 17 2007 21:40 (UTC) |

| Her dad and I have both told her how proud we are of her for losing the weight. We have a shopping spree planned for her next week!!!
We weren't the same size before - I was an 18W and she was a 16. Now she is a size 14 - actually alot of the jeans that she is wearing now are size 16 1/2 - 18 1/2 girls plus. She doesn't want me wearing her old stuff because "WHAT IF someone reconizes them?" I think this is most of the problem.....Most of them are brand new or have only been worn once or twice. I think tonight I will ask her to go through them and tell me which ones that I can have. |

| Oh My Gosh - You are so much better off without him. If he says things like that to you when you dating just think of what he will say if you ever got married.
Men like him tick me off....Is he perfect? I think not...... Give me his number I'll call him and get him straightened out!!!!!!!! |
