Topic: PS approval
Hi everyone,
I am one very guilty of just reading all the posts and not actually posting myself
I received my PS approval at the beginning of the week. I am WAY excited. I am just having a TT. The surgeon thinks there is about 8-10 pounds of skin on my abdomen. I am going to have the surgery either June 8 or 22nd. I am waiting for my 8-year-old daughter to be on summer break. That way I will not have to worry about driving her to school
Let's see. I am doing pretty good other than that. I am holding at about 148-152. I started out at 328--so, I am thrilled!
I was having some problems with hypoglycemia. I am still having some problems with it. I have been tested, and the Dr. says I just need to eat more often. And, when I do eat, it should be protein. I actually am getting tired of eating. Who would have thought it
All right, still thinking of everyone! I had no idea Donna Mae was even going to have PS...good for her!
Hugs to all
Tracy

Topic: Pre Easter weigh in ?
I lost a couple pounds so I'm down to 286 now, I guess it's okay to fluctuate now and then while pregnant right??
I have started feeling the bean bumps pretty much daily then they stoped for about a week and then yesterday I sneezed and bean kicked like 4 times in a row it was soooo cool !

Topic: RE: we dwindled away.
I'm here and probably always will be! Through thick and thin, I need the support!
I guess now that people have reached their goals and are thinner, etc. They've gotten on with their lives and feel they don't need the support...BUT I DO!
I'm glad I'm not the only one around here!
