I'll take Dysport - those injections are expensive, but I'm worth it! Don't need to use as much photoshop then! Otherwise an IV of Reisling might work!

Get the card if you can. DW has one. We don't use it all the time but it comes in handy if you need it. I always use it when I transport my mom.

Weight: 179.something

I'm beginning to feel a little less stressed. Granted, I hardly got anything accomplished at work yesterday (or this week, really), but I did meet up with a friend and do some shopping after work. Now DH is primarily bought for, and I have a clear idea of what else I want to get him. I also have most of my side of the family done. And he can help me with the rest of the stepkids gifts this weekend! Which is great because then hopefully I can do my wrapping in stages rather than an unhappy marathon of it!

I'm starting to freak out a bit about baby. I promised myself I wouldn't be allowed to until January. Some of my apps say the 3rd trimester started at week 27, and all the rest agree by week 28--that's tomorrow!! I was born 6 weeks early! That means baby could be here in just 6ish weeks. omg. I have bought a couple outfits and a baby monitor and have a handmedown crib in the attic.

Also the reality of pregnancy being so close to being over is making the weight thing matter a lot less. I sure hope I'm not one of those that puts on 20lbs. in the last trimester. I'm hoping for a level 1lb/week, which would put me at 36-37lbs. gained and I'm okay with that.

Sometimes there are more important things than the number on the scale. :)

Yay! you are feeling more settled with the weight gain! Just in time to get unsettled about being a Mom. I know you will be great though - and so stylish too!

Weight? Calories, a big fat zero

I lived . Soreness is about on par with the sleeve surgery. Still waiting for the dr to come by and an X-ray of some sort before I get cleared for water and find out when I can go home. I would do anything for a measly ice chip! My throat is dry and hurting and we won't speak of how gross my mouth feels. I'm super tired, but we all know hospitals are terrible places to rest. The nurses have all been so nice though.

Hope everyone has a good day!
