hehe

i just bought a size 12 pair of dress pants at TJ Maxx. they're from the limited... and they were only 7.50. LOL uhm - size 12?? if only my stupid belly/massive amount of scar tissue would go away - i'd be willing to bet i could fit into a single digit size. the 8's go up my leg, but barely over my butt. so who knows. [yes, i tried. why, i don't know.. lol] i gotta say, i'm feeling great- except for my stomach. someone held the door for me yesterday, and said "oh, after you.. pregnant women first!" not so great for the self esteem. i could've cried.. but i guess it's better than him thinking i was just fat? i don't know. i just smiled and walked away - quickly. it's not his fault - i totally look 5 months pregnant. but what can i do? no mount of situps, crunches, etc, is going to make it disappear. i only hope i can just get it all cut off at some point. LOL happy new year! kristen* ps. NADENE!!! let us know how your husband is, for pete's sake!!

Congratulations Kristen! WTG on the size 12s!!!

Kristen way to go!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats on the size 12 you are doing wonderful keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!! And on a lighter note I think I would rather have someone think that I was pregnant and not just fat. (haha) I used to look like I was pregnant with triplets (haha) not anymore just maybe 4 months pregnant. Keep up the good work doesnt it feel wonderful everytime you buy something smaller than the time before. I went and bought a size 10 jeans thinking that they would fit me in a few weeks didn't try them on at the store for $10 I was buying them whether they fit or not. Well when I got home I decided to try them on and guess what they fit it was a wondeful feeling. Take care kerri
