Will you be walking for Obesity this weekend? Yes, I've been sponsored and will be walking in Suffolk, Virginia. I'm excited. 3 miles for a great cause. Hope all of you are getting invovled too! *Fun bonus question: Are you excited for your next high school reunion? Do you plan on going? Anything about school memories you want to share? I haven't been to a reunion yet. It's been 12 years since I got out of highschool. Technically, I didn't graduate where I went to my senior year, but I've recently found a lot of them on MySpace. Once I'm at goal, I would love to show off my progress. I wasn't "fat" in highschool, but I was "bigger" than all the other girls. Especially taller. It was rediculous but some jerks still wrote "Have a whale of a summer" in my 8th grade notebook. I'm proud of who I am, fat or not. I hope they can say the same thing.

Linda, My surgeon offers it to everyone when they are discharged from the hospital. Stupid me ofcourse thought I wouldnt need it so I didnt take it. Two weeks later I was calling her and begging for it...LOL Figured I would try it for 6 months. I will try this spring to wean off of it. So Yes I take Lexapro and swear by the stuff. It keeps me from crying all the time. Mariah

I've never gained 10 pounds, but I have seen a fluctuation up of 6 pounds. We are all differant, though. Have you had a major increase in your sodium intake? Any medicines you might be taking. Please don't worry, just wait the week out and know that you'll be fine!

Hi All- Is anyone from here going? My DH and I decided to go! Let me know if you're going and maybe we can meet! Christina S
