What have you done today to make you feel proud? (posting for Mary)
Well let's see, I'm proud that I am finally going to start this weight loss thing! I've been on and off this site, poking around here and there and feel I have finally found a place I can open up. You ladies seem to be consistent and friendly which is what I desperately need. I went on a different forum and they were ugly mean! 
So it's a deep breath of fresh air to hear all the encouragement on hear.
Thank you!

We're proud you found us!! No meanies here...just a wonderful group of supportive peeps. Remember to take it one day or one meal or one minute at a time. If you stray from your plan, just get right back on. Perfection is not necessary, just try to be consistent.
Stick around awhile!

Yea... I kinda saw that too in places.. I used to just hang around and see how they talked to each other... never actually said anything before coming here. Isn't that a shame! Personally, I don't see what people get out of deliberately making another human being hurt, but .... it's out there.
Well.. welcome aboard and congrats on the decision to do your do woman!

Mary:
Hopefully those pants will be even baggier after Thursday. 
Thanks for showing me the way to the non-op board...and listening to me ***** AD NAUSEUM about my boobs. I hope there's no repeat performance next week. 
Interestingly enough, everyone I know is freaked out and nervous about my surgery (especially the boobs) except me (maybe that's 'cuz it's harder on everyone than on me since I'm such a ***** when I'm upset).
