    when someone asks "WHEN ARE YOU DUE??" -BTW.....never ask that--unless a woman is wearing a neon maternity shirt that is flashing 'BABY ON BOARD'...just sayin. How do you go onward and upward?

    Jimmy John's sandwich shops were founded by an interesting fellow. They have numerous quirky and humorous posters throughout. One of the funnier posters lists the top 50 life lessons the founder has learned throughout his life.

    One of them says something like:

    Never ever say anything to a woman that might imply you believe she is pregnant unless you see an actual baby emerging from her at the time.

    Almost laughed out loud when I read that one. The others on the list are pretty funny too.

    LOL..it amazes me the crap that comes out of people's mouths!! I kid you not, a few weeks ago a friend of the family said to me (as I was holding my 20 month old), "So, I see you're expecting another??!!". AND IF THAT WASN'T BAD ENOUGH...when I responded, no, I'm not pregnant...she continued her verbal diarrhea of the mouth by saying, "Oh, so your still recovering from the last one then?". Gah!!! :/

    You are an amazing young lady and you can definitely hold that over your dad's head for a longgg time, lol. Don't get discouraged, after a huge loss like that your body is likely regrouping, I've noticed that even though the scale stopped again for me a couple of months ago the clothes continue to get looser. So just keep on keeping on, you are so doing it right and the pounds will continue to creep off. All your MFP pals will be rooting for you no matter how slow or fast it comes off. Be patient, get used to the new you, then continue on the path you've chosen. Congratulations.

    Just had a peak at your profile. You are amazing! I have stalled a bit these past couple months. It's reading stories like yours that help motivate me to keep going:flowerforyou:

    I am glad it helped!! That's what it's all about, right? To encourage and be enouraged when needed! :) And, really, it was a pretty funny moment! LOL

    ..and, thank you. When I look at old photos of me, I don't hardly recognize that person anymore. My youngest doesn't recognize me in old photos at all. He will never know me as "really big mommy"! :D
