  • Thanks kfunk... I think my body's had its fun and its whooshies for now though. Things seem to be slowing down but that's ok. We'll get there in the end.
  • mrsmcsmuffins I go down in little bits here and there, but there is one week a month where I lose the majority of my weight, and its usually the week before my TOM. I hope that happens this month!

    Can you tell me about the differences you see from the 190's to the 160's? I am very curious!
  • Kfunk - yes! It's a massive difference! Literally everyone is commenting on my weight loss right now. It's nice but also I don't like the pressure...I never told anyone I was dieting. I don't like feeling that others I know are watching me and my food choices....I know, a little crazy...but complete strangers on the net? Share away
  • mrsmcsmuffins yay, I am excited for that!! I got a bit worried because I look WAY better, dressed, naked not so much. I am looking at all the fat I have left thinking that there is no way that 44 lbs. will be enough. I don't think that its crazy at all, I feel the same way at times, its not fun feeling like your under a microscope!

    You are doing so well, I can't wait until I can say that I am only 15 lbs. from goal!!
  • Kfunk - we are doing just great! We had the kids for a year and a half before we adopted, we were their foster parent. So it is so much better without all the system hoops and court stuff. 😀
  • blondie I am so glad that it is official for you guys!! How old are the kids?
  • They are 7, 3, and 1 - they keep us on our toes!!
  • blondie I bet they do!! My husband and I are thinking about the possibility of expanding our family in the next year or so. Right now we have a 6 year old and a 3 year old and our oldest (a girl) wants another sibling as well, but the cost of daycare for 3 kids is scary!!
  • Kfunk - you are not kidding, daycare is expensive! We have an awesome daycare that's loves our kiddos and work hard to make it a good place for the kids. They are so worth it! They grow up way too fast.
