YES! Can you imagine what it'd be like on our birthdays in late Spring next year, with us simply GLOWING from being so much healthier and happier?
(I have to be careful with this as I have a tendency to daydream about the future and never get round to actually realising it. But a little bit can be good, I think)

In any case, I'm positive I'll be back to the prepregnancy weight of my first baby-- which was the beginning of the end of my life as a normal weight person.
June girls of the world unite! Hee hee!
When I figured this out it was like my eyes popped out of my head! I'm so looking forward to it and you must be too

Thank you - I'm excited too! Not just at the thought of having a great year to look forward to, but also the knowledge that it's going to be fantastic because
I made it happen. That's extraordinary.

Oh my, thank you! Never thought myself a comedienne

I should make it into some kind of brand name.
I was/am a bit nervous about seeing it this way, lest I start obsessing about it. But generally I agree with you - having an event in time attached to it makes it all the more concrete.
