Dev,
The moderators went through and cleaned that post out. I got an email stating that one of my replies was inappropropriate. The one where I said this person's communications skills were horrific. I guess that was over the top! Not a problem!

Oh and PS I am totally green with envy that you are having another baby, I wish I lived closer so I could come over and get baby snuggles once your new one arrives, b/c my two year old refuses to be snuggly anymore.

My first is almost 3 now. For a little while he gave up snuggling, but now he always wants to sit on my lap for a few minutes before bed. Mainly I think so he can delay going to bed for those extra few minutes, but I'll take what I can get!

I love your avatar message - it is one of my favorites! I think I am less pleasant as a smaller (not skinny yet!) person!

It was one of my hardest lessons to learn, and one of the biggest reasons I never use food to reward my kids. Growing up EVERYTHING was celebrated with food, and it's always the first place my brain goes, so I find myself chanting this mantra in my head over and over again.

I think maybe now that my hormones are balanced (I have very bad PCOS that is finally controlled with the weight loss and diet) I am much less likely to freak out and start screaming at random people, it's definitely a plus for me LOL

Everything that can be said has been, but yes my band failed ME, not the other way around. I was a model bandster, yet still developed horrible complications. It sucks, but it is what it is.
