Wow sweetie!!! I am so sorry you got such a mean email. I am so glad you are not going anywhere. I have been slacking some myself lately, and I need to try to get on here everyday again. You are my sweet pixie, I cant imagine this board with out you. Your achievment gives me hope that I too will get to my goal one day after the baby is born. I hope who ever emailed you, that they can see not everyone has reached their goal weights, adn we are here for the good and the bad. If they need to talk, they should post an urgent post for some encouragement. I know everyone can get a little depressed here and there trying to compare themselves to everyone elses success. We all have to remember we are each so different in our own ways. We also have all come so far and need to stay positive about our journeys and our friends journeys. Nat sweetie if it wasnt for your positive messages, and all you other may babies who have been so supportful, I dont know how I would have come out in all of this, you have all been amazing! I have a feeling I will need alot of shoulders as I gain more weight through this pregnancy, and afterwards on my journey of trying to get off the baby weight plus my original weight that I have not lost yet.- Melissa

Excellent tip! I do this so that the server can't see what I've eaten and what I haven't. They really get worried if you don't eat much. Now that I'm not plowing through my food with a shovel, I find myself looking around restaurants and feeling horrible sadness for the morbidly obese people around me. As much as I believe in personal responsibility, I can't help but put a large helping of the blame on the food industry for overfilling our plates so horribly. My husband got what must have been two CUPS of mashed potatoes plonked on his plate the other day. It makes me want to cry sometimes. I also feel so incredibly blessed to be liberated! Hugs, Susan
