    Hello Team,
    I am dreading weighing in today but after I go to the dentist and do my 30 day shred work out I will. I am nervous that I won't see the numbers that I want to but I have to think again that this is only the beginning and I have been doing great. It just takes time.

    How are all of you doing? TGIF!

    I have my fingers crossed for you. Any loss is a great result!! :happy:

    I just wanted to let people know I had an ultrasound today and found out my baby doesn't have a definite heartbeat. :( So waiting to see what happens next, but I may not be around as much for a few days.

    Amanda, I will be thinking of you. Hope all goes well. Don't think about it too much. I am sure everything will be fine. This happened to my cousin and his wife and they now have a beutiful and healthy baby girl.
