Topic: RE: revolving door
Jody....I think you're eating too little too. Try upping your calories to 1800, even 2000 and see what happens.
Also...you might want to try Craig's List for a great deal on some used exercise equipment.
Good luck to you.

Wow, Skylar....must feel so good to know you can travel and eat out and still lose weight! You've come so far and must be so proud of yourself, as well as your DD's!!
You know I felt so silly after writing that I felt "skinny" in those jeans (at 270lb). Isn't it strange how our body image is all just a state of mind?
Congratulations on having a whole new wardrobe to work your way into!!

Topic: RE: xpost - OT: Update on my Flying
OH BOY, Ruth, I'm so excited for you. You're going to do it and once you have that under your belt - yes you can go anywhere. I hope you can actually enjoy the experience. And then start planning that next vacation......
I don't know if you ever flew when you were morbidly obese - but I have to tell you flying when you are normal weight is so much easier. There is ton of extra room in the seat, plenty of space for the tray to come down when they hand out the only thing that is free - some cheap drinks. It's so much easier to get around in the airport and you can easily fit into the toilet on the plane etc. I think if you were trying to overcome a fear of flying while you were morbidly obese, it would have been much more difficult and uncomfortable.
I look forward to you posting after you've flown and telling us how it felt.

Wow, an hour of weeding and tree trimming - that's good exercise.
I was feeling really lazy today but I still went to the mall to walk - but I only walked 4 miles instead of my normal 5 - I guess being away on a mini vacation where I didn't get a lot of exercise really made an impact on my fitness - not in a good way. So I am proud that I did get out and walk. Next time it will be 5 miles again, at least I hope it will be.
Take care.

Hi Bridget and welcome back. Katya - what a pretty name for a little girl - she must be adorable. I can't imagine being on bed rest for most of your pregnancy - YIKES, you must have been miserable.
I look forward to reading your posts and I like your attitude about not wanting to pass your food issues onto your daughter.
