    I think she has been logging in, but not necessarily on the boards. I was on the home (facebook like thing) the other day and I think it was reporting a loss for her. Maybe try sending??

    After seeing our JS's in their bikini's I am having to remind myself that my children are totally worth every stretch mark and that excess skin that never quite returned to normal.

    I have talked about having my stomach fixed for years ( since I thought the first 2 were the only 2 I would have). My husband said I can go ahead and have it done now. I am a little scared though. I think I better wait until my 1 year old is in school. Its pretty major surgery and I don't think I can run around after them when it is done. Also I would like to prove I can keep the weight off before I spend the money.

    My oldest is 17. It has been at least 18 years since I have had a belly to be proud of. I can wait another 3 years right?

    :smile: I hear ya about the stretch marks and saggy skin! But I have two BEAUTIFUL creations that I grew inside of me for almost 9 months and then amazingly brought them into the world... So, I'm ok with it in that perspective... I hope that the kangaroo pouch shrinks more, though, as I lose more weight (please God)!

High school dates don't even count :p I'm nervous and hopes it goes as smoothly as last night. Wish me luck and I'll tell you guys about it tomorrow :D

    It's been such a busy weekend! It was the elite 8 and my team lost :( but I went on the date on Friday. We went to an out of the way nice restaurant I'd never been to, then we went to a bar and played darts, then we went to his house and watched half of Inglorious Basterds (weird movie). It went great, he's a super nice guy and easy to talk to. Here's the problem....I'm not physically attracted to him. I even hung out with him last night with a big group of friends to make sure, and I just don't feel "that way" about him. He really likes me though :( I want to be just friends with him, but I know that could pretty much never happen.

    I don't want to hurt his feelings, so what should I do? My best friend is currently dating one of his good friends, so I will see him as long as they are dating. Arghhhhh

    Ah... it's been my experience that it works best when you are honest and upfront with the guy =)... that way, you are never "leading him on"... he knows how you feel from the beginning... Of course, you don't have to sound arrogant or anything when you are being upfront... I'm sure you can handle it tactfully.... But I would definitely let him know that you enjoy his company as a friend =) Good luck with that... I'm glad you had a great time!.....
