Hey everyone
Thought I'd better get a quicky post in so you all knew I'd found my way here again. Thanks for the PM, 2cute
To be honest, I couldn't find the thread and had to go back to Suzanne's link for us. So, also a thanks to Thin for keeping that near the top of the page.
I had one of those reality check moments today. I've been so proud of myself for the inches and pounds gone, and while DH and I were in Wal-Mart this afternoon I thought I should check out some holiday clothes just for fun. My check from the magazine article should be coming soon, and it would be nice to do something for myself. Anyway, I pull out a couple of 26/28 items that were really cute, and I was thinking might even be a little loose by now. Well, they weren't. The skirt was really snug around my huge belly. The shirt covered it, and it all looked fine if I could hold still the entire time I'm at a party or something. In other words, it was a no go.
I know a lot of my other clothes are getting loose and need replacing, so I assumed that new items would fit. Guess I've just been pushing all this stretchy knit stuff I've been wearing to the limit. So, without the extra give, new clothes still aren't fitting. Can't I have it all now? I definitely want the proverbial cake and to be able to eat it too.
DH is pacing back and forth through the house because he has a new game and has to wait until I'm finished here to play it. I could be bad and just spend forever, but we do share a bed still.
Tina, I missed replying to you yesterday, and I really need to. I've only had one fibroid, but it was a doozy. It grew to the size of a freakin' basketball, and even after shrinking was the size of a grapefruit. There is always a dull ache and sometimes sharp pain. I have a pretty good clue what you are going through, I think. There are some much less invasive ways to get rid of them, and if you want a PM, I'll be happy to tell you about the method I chose. Because I was hoping to become pregnant again, a hysterectomy was not a choice. I'd write it out here on the thread, but I'm guessing not everyone needs the info.
The NYC trip sounds like so much fun! The shopping would have to be amazing, and the company couldn't be better!
DH has quit pacing and begun looming. Guess it is time to give the puter up?
Have a great night, everyone!
