    Bumpity bump bump.

    It's great that you did this in a healthy and sustainable way. Too many people resort to the "quick fix" of fad diets and ineffective or dangerous pills and just end up gaining it all back anyway. Slow and steady win the race! A year and a half of patience and keeping your eye on your goal is better than a few months of temporary success followed by a lifetime of unhappiness. Way to go! (Even if it does mean batting away the Internet creepies every so often!) :happy:

    Dear Trouble,

    Why must you take a perfectly good thread about how to lose weight and keep it off and turn it into some psuedo-sexual playground. Please grow up and leave Tami alone.

    Thank you.

    Thank you.

    please point out the "Psuedo-Sexual" reference? I was refering to her tummy that is in her avatar... she showed off her baby belly and that is it... now I think a little "you hear/read what you want to hear/read" complex is showing here. I do not know about you but I am blatent about my references, you would know you wouldnt have to think to hard about it... BUT maybe there is something hidden in there but I do not see it that is why I am asking you to clarify... thanks!

    and Tam I hope I did not offend you I was trying to show that you have a very healthy looking baby tummy... that is all!

    Dear Trouble,
    I will agree that at most times you are very blatent in your sexual references (for example your post on 2/27...TROUBLE2 : 02/27/09

    That picture makes me think Naughty thoughts... YES I SAID IT! NAUGHTY thoughts...

    very very naughty... I only have enough blood to work one brain at a time, and right now its not the one behind my eyes!!!)

    I think that those of us who read a lot of Tami's threads have noticed that you are constantly posting innuendo and that Tami is always politely asking you to quit, but yet you continue. Tami is a very nice person who does not deserve the "attention" you have been showing her on her threads and on her profile page.

    Hi Tami,

    Thanks for posting this.. I understand this in principle, but always need a reminder because when I set up my goals for 1 lb a week, I feel like I am gorging... I guess I need to take a week or so and just let my metabolism catch up.. maybe even stay away from the scale - OOOHHH scary..:noway:

    Your before and after pics are incredible. You now look like one of those skinny chicks that I try so hard not to be jealous of..:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    very inspirational - thanks again..

    take care of you and that baby..

    Thank you! Yes, don't let the scale dictate you and treat your body well and you will be fine!! Your metabolism will love you if you find that right balance of eating enough but cutting enough to lose the weight. It's a tricky thing sometimes but it can be done!

    Good luck!

    And I am learning that being called "skinny beyotch" (in a joking way) is one of the best compliments ever! :laugh:

    I think I am FINALLY on the mend!!! :drinker: Ear still has that plugged/echoey thing going on, but isn't hurting as much. I think another full day of amox and the drops will kick it's butt!!!

    Thanks Dave! And whole wide world.........a lot to live up to!! :laugh:
