No, not so far. *keeps fingers crossed*

My only problem is my girls aren't looking too perky, but they weren't looking perky while fat either.

Hmm, makes me wonder if it is more pregnancy related than weight loss related <loose skin>, with one of my pregnancies I could actually feel the skin stretch I was so big <baby weighed over 9 lbs> and I wonder if this lovely abdomen is from that.
At any rate - I (literally) dream of plastic surgery.

I feel your pain! Growing up, I got teased for my name over the Betsy Wetsy doll produced in th FIFTIES even though I was a kid in th late eighties and early nineties. Some things really stick! Look at it this way, this one will probably just be a brief fad no one will remember in a couple months. You're doing GREAT and you look fabulous even the weight you are now if you picture is any indication, so try not to let this get to you too much.

In other news, I'm gonna sit this one out girls. Yesterday afternoon I was walking home from the bus and tripped on the sidewalk, spraining my wrist and breaking my elbow. I'm on pain meds, feeling sorry for myself, and not able to move much at all without a lot of pain. Catch you guys next time I hope! I'm told this particular bone heal pretty quickly, but I'll be kind of a mess for the next few days.

Good luck everyone!

Betsi - heal well and take care of yourself.

Robsia- I cannot even imagine being in the 140s - awesome for you!!

Miriam - still weigh in with TOM largely to make sure I don't use it as an excuse to go nutso with eating. I just accept that it's likely going to be up a bit.


215.8 this AM. It's nice to know that even with overindulging for a couple of days I can get it moving back down pretty quickly by staying OP!!

I think if that's the case I'll be eating chevre everyday for the rest of my life!!
Chevre is a type of cheese but I've made the vegan version with cashews. yummy yummy! Josephine is going to experiment also.

.4 is not bad for TOM Miriam!!!

Theresia you're so close I can see your skinny self!!

Fellow veggies, vegans and other food folk -

Pine nuts:

Super high calories, super high in PROTEIN.

What do you say? Make pesto, or is that suicidal? How would I figure out the calories anyway?

And regarding TOM - since I've never weighed myself before/during, I don't know when the big gain is - before? during? middle?
