Mapia,

I am sorry to hear that you are still not feeling well - I hope that the doctor is able to prescribe something for you that will make this cold disappear! I don't know why nights are always harder when you're sick :(. I really hope that you're doing better today!!

Love,
Kel

Mapia,

I am so sorry you are still feeling sick, I hope the Dr sorts you out soon. I allso don't know why we feel worse once the sun goes down:(. I hope you feel better soon

Love
Charlene

Hey there, checking in to see how you are doing! I hope that you are resting, and that your visit to the doctor went okay!!!

Kel

Hi Mapia

I'm sorry to hear that you still aren't feeling well. Good luck at the doctor's, I hope he can give you something to make you feel better quickly. In the meantime, rug up and keep yourself cosy.

Big (((hugs))).

Ruby

Hi Kelley sorry I dident see this thread yesturday thanks for thinking of me.I did go to the dr and I have tonsilatis(sp).She gave me antibiotics some painkillers and gargle solution for my throat.I am feeling a bit better today although my throat still hurt quit a bit this morning.DH woke me before he went to work so I could take my antibiotic must take it every 8 hours.I did manage to get back to sleep and woke up at 11 :D.Since I cant go see my godkids I dont have much to do during the day.I am sick of cleaning my condo.Well today I went out and rented a bunch of DVD's to sit here and watch cause DH is getting home pretty late now a days he has so much work.Seems that the New Year is going good for him thank god he has closed many jobs.So update I finally called a nutritionist my MIL was seeing and lost 30 pounds.I want to lose about 15-20 pounds and when talking to her on the phone today she said she has dealt with many women TTC and she gives them a different diet to follow etc.I am so glad I finally called and made the appointment for tomorrow she sounds so nice.So tomorrow I am a busy women I have the appointment with her and my dentist........lol.

Charlene and Ruby thanks for your well wishes I am sure I will be back 100% by tomorrow.Hope you girls are doing well.

Love,

Mapia

Hi Mapia,

I'm glad you're feeling a little better! I hope the antibiotics kick in right away and that your sore throat disappears today!!! Did you get some good movies to watch? I'm sorry DH will be getting in so late, but I guess it's a good thing that he has lots of work too!!

Well, relax today, because you've got a lot to do tomorrow!!! I'll be interested to hear if your nutritionist has diet suggestions for those ttc. And I hope that she'll be helpful to you to lose any weight you want to lose. My gym bag has been sitting in the trunk of my car since January 1st, lol. The gym clothes are probably frozen solid, lol! I was thinking when I woke up this morning that I really should go after work.

Well, my friend, I'd better shower and get ready for work! I'll check in later!

Love,
Kelley

Hi Mapia!! I'm glad you are feelign so much better!! :D I think it's so sweet of DH to be taking such good care of you. :) Do you remember a bit before gramndma passed, you and DH had a few days of tension?? Did the two of you ever resolve that, or did that just pass with time?

Good for you for being so proactive with calling the nutritioniste!! That's a really, good, important step in getting your BFP!!


I'm sorry Dh will be home late, but as Kelley said, it's good that he has so much work! Enjoy your time relaxing and watching movies. Since you are getting over a sicknes, you shoudln't be cleaning anyway! Put your feet up, and make a few dozen bowls of popcorn and watch those filmes!! (Or apples. Yams. Whatever your nutritioniste says :))

I hope you feel better soon. Will MIL drop bywith soup, do you think? She sounds liek a totally different person now... :angel:

Hey Kelley I am interested in seeing what the nutritionist has to say as well.Even though RE told me not to lose more then 10 pounds I want to lose 20 to get back to where I was when I got married.I need to feel good about myself and that should play a big role in getting my BFP.I will defently keep you all posted.Thats funny about your gym clothes being frozen.........lol.Oh I rented The Contract.

Princess I did relax today dident do much I mean there is nothing more to clean here.I just made something for us to eat and I confess I was bad I had another slice of DH's leftover bday cake today.I couldent help it, it was so good...........lol.I figure after tomorrow I cant so I did today.:D Its a gloomy day here raining off and on so being inside was nice.As for MIL no she wont be by I cooked some fish yesturday and today I made peas for us to eat.We make a dish here from peas.Oil onions etc.With bread and feta cheese its yummy.I think I should have a gyro since I will start my diet.........lol.I havent had one in so long and they are so gooooooddddddddd.MIL is grieving right now so I dont expect her to come running.I can understand I even miss grandma going to MIL is not the same without grandma there.I cant imagine how hard it is on her having her there all these years and now she is gone.Plus she had her tooth pulled yesturday so she wasent feeling to well herself.Well I am waiting for DH to come home now so he can eat and we are going to go take a look at a new van for his company.The one he has now is about to fall apart.So we are in the middle of looking for a new work van.I think we will get this one it seems real nice but he wants to test drive it today.I need to get out and get some fresh air anyway.Well girls I hope you have a wonderful day.

Love ya,

Mapia

Wowwww, your peas and oinions dish made my stomach growl! Mmm, it sounds really good! :D You go ahead and spoil yourself now because tomorrow, you're to be very good and behave! :D I absolutely can't wait to hear what the nutritioniste says.

I do feel bad for MIL. She really is liek a different person; but I guess losing a mother would do that to anyone. I couldn't possibly imagine what she is going through. She is so lucky to have a DIL like you, and I think she realizes that now. I hope that with time she continues to heal. It won't be easy, but I do wish her peace to help her with it.

How exciting a new van! You can go test driving! Things have really turned around, finally, for you and I am SO happy to hear that!! Dh and you sound much better, you're seeing a nutritionist regarding IF, and you put your feet up and relaxed today!! :D

I hope this happy streak lasts a long, long time. :)

Hey Mapia, Sorry I didn't post yesterday... I was actually feeling under the weather myself, but only because of those stupid headaches so I wasn't really sick. But I'm better today and I'm so glad to hear that you are feeling a bit better yourself! I know it must stink to be cooped up in the condo, but hopefully the DVD's you got will keep you company and provided some good entertainment. I haven't hear of the Contract... I'll have to check it out if you think it's good.

I'm also very interested in hearing what the nutritionist has to say. You'll have to let us know if there are certain diet do's and don'ts while TTC. My DH keeps telling me I should eat whatever I want cause I'm trying to get pregnant... I think he assumes that it's good to be big if you're trying since you obviously get so much bigger once you are pregnant. He's so funny. :) All I want to do of course is stay as lean as possible before I actually do get pregnant so that I'll be more physically prepared to handle a pregnancy! But I don't mind chunking up once that baby is in my belly... I am all about eating for two (or three!)! ;) Well keep us posted, and I hope you've had a good day!

Hi Princess I do feel bad for my MIL I cant imagine how hard this is on her.Only time will heal her pain and when me or SIL give her a grandchild to pass her time.I dont doubt she will be a good grandma she is young so she has more to offer.My FIL cant wait to see a grandchild he keeps talking about it.Yes things are looking good for us DH has so much work which is great and even tonight one of my uncles called him to do some work on a new beach house he is building.So the work keeps coming in its just DH is stressing on how he will get to everyone.I told him not to stress god sent you work so he will work things out about getting them done.Also I told him to talk to my uncle and to let him know he is pretty booked right now and that he will do the job just not right away.Well we ordered the new van it will take a few months to get it though cause here in Greece vans dont sell to much so they usually have to be ordered.DH is so excited he loved it when we went and saw it.The van he has right now is so old I cant believe it still runs I said to DH if that poor van could talk it would tell you to put it out of its misery.......lol.That van is 17 years old and with all the heavy towing it does man that was a strong van I tell you.

Hi Kari I am glad you are feeling better I read that you werent feeling well in your thread.Thanks for checking in on me sweetie.Well I am so excited about meeting with the nutritionist I just want these extra pounds off of me and I know it will put me in better spirits.As for putting on the pounds when ttc not true you just need to stay in good health.As long as you are not very thin then you are fine.Also eating for 2 is a myth my cousins Dr told her when she was pregnant she should not over eat and not to put on excess weight.She said he was so strick he dident want his patients putting on no more then 20 pounds during pregnancy.I also believe that.Even when I get pregnant I will stick with the nutritionist so I wont put on to many pounds during pregnancy.But hey you are tall and thin so eat all you want just try and eat healthy mostly though.Now I need to have that gyro before my appointment tomorrow...........lol.Well hope you are better sweetie have a nice afternoon.

Love,

Mapia

Really! I didn't know that eating for 2 thing was a myth! I really did think you were supposed to increase your caloric intake accordingly! I'm sure the intent is to increase the quality of the calories you consume, huh? That doesn't sound nearly as fun as "eat for 2!"! :D Well I hope you enjoyed your gyro... LOL... get all you can in now :jester: Mapia, I really think you will be in better spirits in no time and then I can start rooting you on as you go for your last IUI attempt! Have a wonderful night my friend!

Thanks Kari but I dident have my gyro I cant eat a big dinner never been able to.Maybe for lunch tomorrow before my appointment in the afternoon..........lol.See the thing with me is I dont eat much for the weight I am you would think I eat a whole lot more.So seeing a nutriotionist will help me eat better and lose the weight.Thanks for lifting my spirits I know I am feeling so much better just by making this appointment right away changed my spirits.I had been debating so long to make the appointment but we were trying to situate our finances but DH told me to just go and not to worry about it.He also said I am not allowed to get to skinny cause he doesnt like his wife to skinny........lol.........he says he likes to have something to hold and not bones to hold..........lol..........he is so silly.This is just what I need and when I talked to the N/T lets abbriviate nutritionist to that N/T I am sick of writing it out.......lol.Ok anyway when I talked to her she also wants to see my b/w from RE to see where my body is as far as hormones go she also wanted to know if I had recent blood sugar tests etc but I dont.My blood sugar has been normal at times it drops thats when I get dizzy and need some sugar so I know I am ok on that end.I am not much of a sweet lover so thats why I had a few issues with my blood sugar dropping and the only way I know it dropped was cause my mom is diabetic and when I felt dizzy she would take my blood gloucose with her little machine.Then she would force some chocolate in me........lol.Oh well I will let you all know how it goes.Have a great night as well.

Love,

Mapia

Yep, Mapyia is right. That eating for two thing is a myth. I was actually just reading in my Child Psychology text book that a pregnant woman should only increase her normal caloric intake by 10-20%. It is much more important to get the right vitamins than it is to eat more food. Definitely not as fun as eating for two!!! :D;):D

I'm glad to see you are feeling better Mapia. Seems like a lot of us have been in a funk lately. That means happier times must be ahead, right? Remember, 2008 is going to be a good year for us! :)

Holly

Mapia,

It sounds as if you are feeling better - I am very happy about that!

That's good that the nutritionist wants to see your b/w as well - It sounds like she's very thorough. Good luck tomorrow - let us know how it goes!!! I think I told you earlier I was thinking of going to the gym after work, but of course I didn't go. And Friday morning I have to leave the house by 5:30 am for my appointment, so I don't think I'll be going tomorrow either. Maybe this weekend I can get back on track!

I'm glad DH liked the van!! So, they went ahead and ordered it?

I haven't heard of the movie 'The Contract" either. I'll have to look it up too! DH recently subscribed to 'Netflix' so if it was good, I'll have to tell him to order it!

I hope the rest of your night went well!!!! Talk to you later!

Kelley

Hey Holly yes 2008 is going to be good we already said that :D.Lets get our colds behind us and look ahead to be healthy for our BFP's.As much fun as it would be eating for 2 oh well what can you do we just have to keep our bodies in top shape.I finally got to go see my godbaby she is so cute man when she smiles at me I melt.She is so quiet I am serious she is such a great baby.Poor thing has an eye infection so her eye is red and doesnt fully open so we took her to the doctor the doctor adored her he said OMG she is so quiet.She dident even try to fight the doctor off she just sat there and let him look at her.Anyway it was nice to finally get out.I will soon be leaving for my appointment with the N/T and then the dentist :(I HATE THE DENTIST.........lol.Not looking forward to going to the dentist at all.

Hey Kelley the movie was decent it was with Morgan Freidman ok maybe I got his last name wrong.Now you have me laughing about the gym man are we lazy or what................hahaha.Maybe if your car breaks downn in front of the gym you might go..............lol.Anyway have a great day.

Love,

Mapia

Mapia, sounds like you are doing much better today! I'm glad you got to see your little godbaby, though I'm sorry to hear she has an eye infection. This time of the year sucks w/ all the germs in the air. Another reason to be a summer person. :D Sounds like you have a busy day ahead of you. Good luck at both appts. I hope the dentist is nicer to you this time around! ;)

Holly

Mapia, I'm so glad you got to see godbaby!! Oh, she sounds liek such a gem!

I'm sorry you have to go back to the dentiste. While I don't hate going to mine, it's not exactly my favourite place either :)

Hope you're enjoying your week!!

Lol, Mapia... if my car broke down in front of the gym, I'd walk to the McDonalds across the street and eat something! :D

I'm happy you got to see your godbaby today!!! I know I say it all the time, but she sounds so sweet! I hope that her eye infection gets better really fast!!!

Good luck at the N/T and at the dentist (I hope he's done working on the tooth today and that you don't have to go back!!). Actually, I'm sure you're back already since it's 11 pm there - Hope it went ok!

Love,
Kelley

Lol, Mapia... if my car broke down in front of the gym, I'd walk to the McDonalds across the street and eat something! :D



LOL I would too!! Make it a date, Kelley? :D I think I can say everyone's welcome to join us!

OK Kelley I offically hate dentists ALL dentists.........lol.OMG dident you say this appointment would not hurt well it did and all I kept thinking about was you during the procedure how if I had you there I would whip your behind..............lol.I hope you know I am joking but serious it hurt so bad and the dentist kept asking are you ok want to keep going I was like yeah keep going get this misery over with before I hurt someone.Oh course I have to go back Weds cause the tooth is difficult its the back tooth as I said.I said are you joking with me I dont want to see you ever again what are you talking about next week.He laughed he thought it was funny I sure dident think it was funny I was being serious........lol.Looks like another sleepless night I know once this novicaine wears off boy oh boy.Ok well I forgot to answer your question earlier yes DH and I ordered the van he is so excited like a little kid he keeps talking about it........lol.Ok I was totally laughing when you said you would go to Mcdonalds............hahaha.

Princess,Holly I appreciate you guys stopping by goddaughter is so adorable she has an eye infection and she kept smiling at me and laughing I got to hold her from the car to the Dr office and she kept smiling at me.She has the most beautiful blue eyes.Oh I forgot to tell you all my brother emailed me a video of my niece OMG she is so cute she kept making silly noises and my brother was saying what are you doing there goofy.He calls her goofy its so cute.

Well now my N/T appoitment went well.I love her she is wonderful first off when I walked in she said OMG you are so young how old are you 26?27?I said man I love you.......lol.She said no serious I said no I am older she said how old I said 33 almost 34 she couldent believe it she said my face is pretty and and I have a nice complextion(sp)I said ok you dont have to be so nice but she said no I am neing very honest.Well she suggest I lose no more the 20 pounds so that is our goal it should take 2 months to do so.She is going to come up with a diet for me by Monday that is also good for IF.Things that are good for detox oh I told her about the green tea she said very good I see you have done some research she said to drink 2 cups a day.She also measured me took my weight etc.Seems like I have more muscle then fat so thats why I weight more then I look.I knew that since I was very into sports and other Dr's have told me that.Another good thing.Anyway girls I am feeling good about this.If I lose these pounds I will feel so much better.Ok girls hope you have a wonderful afternoon need to go take some pain meds now.

Love,

Mapia

Oh my goodness, Mapia -- I am so so so so sorry that your dentist appointment went as it did. :(. And I'm sorry for telling you it wouldn't hurt - but I truly did not think that this appointment would be uncomfortable for you. I wish there was something I could do for you... I really hope that you are feeling okay once the novacaine wears off, and even more so I hope all of the business with this tooth is over and done with very soon.

I'm glad all went well with the nutritionist and that you felt comfortable with her!! I hope she comes up with some good suggestions for you and ones that are easy to stick with!

I really hope you're feeling better as the night goes on!

Love,
Kel

Oh Kelley dont feel bad I was just messing with you.What hurt was he kept sticking this little metal thing down the tooth and I could feel it hitting the nerve.The novacaine wore off and yes I am hurting not as bad as last week so far so I hope it wont be as painful and I can get some sleep.I just took my antibiotics so I am waiting a bit to take the pain meds.As for the diet she seems to be pretty good about not making me eat things I dont like we went through all the things I do like so she will put something reasonable together.She wants me to write down everything I eat from tomorrow until Monday when I see her again so she can see where I go wrong.She says my diet isent bad but maybe its the timing and a few things I need to cut out.Oh well we will see on Monday.Have a good one sweetie.

Love,

Mapia

Mapia,

I know you were only messing with me, but I still feel bad that you aren't feeling 100% ok. I just wish the whole mess with your tooth was over with!!

That's good that the N/T is taking into consideration your likes/dislikes. I'd be in big trouble - because I am such a picky eater, and always have been. But, you going to see her is an inspiration, because I told DH starting tomorrow, I am going to try to be really healthy!!

Well, I hope you got a good night's sleep, and I will talk to you in the morning!

Kelley

Your N/T definitely sounds awesome!!! How did you find her? I love that she's being so thorough with your plan! She sounds very nice... I love people who are supportive while they do their jobs and I think she is gonna be great for you! My DH is like yours... he wants me to be healthy and happy, but skin and bones will never cut it for him. :cool: I look forward to hearing how you feel with the changes that N/T recommends... since you really don't have much weight to lose I bet you'll reap the benefits emotionally and spiritually very quickly. You are gonna be in perfect baby making shape in no time!!!! :angel:

Oh and Kelley, we all have to make that trip to McDonalds first, then you can start being healthy! :jester:

Good Morning, Mapia!

How are you feeling today? I hope you are doing well!!! Any plans for today?

I'm about to start work in a few, but will check in later!!! Did you start your food diary today?

Kel

Mapia, your N/T sounds AMAZING!! :D Actually, you have me wanting to call one up today! :) LOL, my Dh is like yours too!! He says that being healthy is all the matters to him, he doesn't like skin and bones! :D I'm really excited to hear everyhting she has to say! She sounds VERY capable and approachable! You're going to be pg in a flash, dearest :D

********babydust******

Hey girls well I had a very busy day BF deceided to hang out all day today we took the baby to her mother and headed to the mall.We shopped and sat and had coffee and talked for 2 hours.It was great no kids just the 2 of us.She starts work next week so we wont have the time to spend with eachother so we made it a day dident get home until 7.As for my tooth well it dident seem to hurt as much last night as last week but I still took pains meds went to sleep at 2 then woke up at 6:30 am with real bad pain I thought I was going to die seriously.I just wanted to pull out my tooth thats how bad it was.I took some pain meds and got to sleep at 8 am again.I woke up at 11 but still the pain is not totally gone seems to be hitting me right in the ear as well.I hate taking all these meds cause I am already on antibiotics I have been trying not to take the pain meds as well but I cant stand the pain I have to take them.Oh well I just hope I feel better tomorrow after getting a good nights sleep.Well DH and I deceided to go to his parents beach house well SIL and BIL will come as well.I know its not summer but the house is nice and big and has a fireplace so I think the little getaway might be good and a good change.Even though DH is working he will meet us there after work.There is another couple that lives in the town where DH have their beachhouse who we really enjoy their company so we will all hang out all weekend.So I wont be on until Sunday night.

As for my N/T she really is great and my MIL recommended her to me she helped her lose 40 pounds and a lot of other people we know.So I see she is good at what she does.Well I dident really start my diet cause she will give it to me on Monday but I did do some things she recommended.I went out bought some fitness bars some fruit etc.So all in all I did good today.I am not worried about keeping the diet I am pretty good at controling myself.Kari is right I dont have to lose much weight but that weight will put me in such better spirits I mean right now I dont even want to go shopping to buy clothes sometimes I dont feel like going out cause I feel fat.I figure its better to lose this weight now before it becomes more with pregnancy.Well I hope you are all enjoying your day love you all and again have a wonderful weekend.

Love,

Mapia

Hi Mapia,

I'm happy you'll be able to get a way a bit for the weekend! Sitting by the fire near the ocean sounds good to me!!! I hope you're having a great time!!!

Good for you for buying healthy foods!!! I swore to DH Thursday night that I was going to healthy from now on. Problem is we had so much junk in the house, that I decided I had to finish it first, lol! I made creme brulee last night at 10 pm. Not good, I know!!! But I swear, once it's gone, I'm going to be good!! And maybe, just maybe, I'll go to the gym after work today!

I am SO sorry about your tooth!! You can't get a break with it, can you??? I wish the dentist could just finish with it and that it wouldn't bother you any more. :(I hope the beach air helps!

Well, I hope you're having a great time!!!

Love,
Kel

Hey Kelley how are you sweetie how was your weekend?Mine was pretty nice I must say.Well Saturday SIL and I drove up and DH and BIL met us after work.We went to our friends house they just built their new house its not finished yet totally but we went there sat by their fireplace and just listened to music and talked it was nice.Today we all went out for lunch it was really nice.Now SIL is not half bad she is cool to be around but her DH is just annoying I swear he is Mr.Know it all.I hate people like that cant have a conversation with him he annoys me so bad.He is alway knows everything and he is so sarcastic.If it wasent for him it would have been so much better.Even though I pay no mind to him cause he is an idiot the things he thinks he knows he is wrong and if you try to correct him he gets offensive and I end up saying oh forget it.Well we also went to see my uncles new house he is building at the beach he wants DH to do some work to the place.The house is beautiful ocean view I told him I will be there a lot this summer.......lol.

My tooth is better thank god now I am thinking I have to go back on Weds man do I hope he will finish with it.

You had me laughing with finishing the junk food first you are to funny.It hasent been so bad eating healthy.Tomorrow I go back to N/T I think she will have my diet ready not sure but anyway she is going to do some sort of testing cause she doesnt want me to eat a few hours before I go see her.Anyway I am already feeling better believe it or not.Well hope you are well I am going to go catch up on the threads and see how all my girls are doing.

Love ya,

Mapia

Hi Mapia!

I'm glad you had a good time this weekend!! It must be so beautiful there! And once your uncle is done with his house, it sounds like you'll have a couple of places to spend time at when the weather gets warmer! I'm sure the beaches there are amazing! I love looking at pictures in all of the travel magazines. Sorry BIL is such a PIA. I hate being around people like that also.

Let us know how it goes with the N/T! I'll be interested to hear what she tells you, and what kind of testing she does. I DID :) go to the gym this morning, after my appointment, with DH! Yay for me! I am going to really really try to go 5 times a week - at least for this next month! And, I ate pretty healthy today too! Although for dinner, I'm making pasta with vodka sauce (although I don't make it very creamy at all) since it's one of the very few things I can cook well, lol.

I'm glad your tooth is feeling better, and I hope also that everything is done with it on Wednesday!!!

Enjoy the rest of your night!

Love,
Kel

Hi Mapia! I'm so glad you are already feeling better! You will have to let us know how your appt with n/t goes tomorrow too. I think that since I'm only about ten days from transfer myself I'm gonna start buckling down about eating healthy. I've been okay but not consistent. Going forward it'll be lots of decaf green tea and steel cut oatmeal! :)

I think its great you have some homes on the beach where u can go visit. It'll be cool when you and DH can take your children there... I know you'll be making lots of your own little family memories there. Well sweetie I hope you have a great week. Look forward to catching up with you some more later!

Mapia, I'm really excited for your n/t appointment tomorrow!! :D I think that, not only for ttc, eating in a healthy way is SO important. I mean, I'm not very good at it, myself, but I have been trying. :) But I'm really proud of you for takign this step, and I knwo you're a deeply comitted person, so you will have no troubleswith it :)

Hey Kelley it was such a nice weekend so glad we got away.Greece is so beautiful it just amazes me at times.When we were driving back from uncles beach house to inlaws beachhouse we could see Mt.Olympus it was so clear that we could see the snow.It was so beautiful I couldent believe we could see that cause Mt.Olympus is a few hours away.If you and DH ever get a chance to visit Greece defently come.So other then know it all BIL it was real nice.I honestly dont know what SIL saw in him.She keeps saying he wasent like that and I dont think she is to happy with him either which is sad cause they just got married in Augs.Oh well what can you say some people do change after marriage.Hope you are having a good day.

Hey Kari oatmeal and green is a good start........lol.Well I got my diet plan for the week its not to bad I think this is going to be easier then I thought.She does have me drinking a cup of green tea everyday.She does recommend lots of greens for salads must eat a salad everyday.Since I dont like tomoatoes I can have just lettuce but she said if I could to put some red pepper in the salad has lots of vitamins etc.She has me eating cereal in the morning and night.Until we get rid of the 10 pounds then she will work out something else.Anyway I am so happy I finally did this.I need to get on track here so I can give IUI one last shot.I have been a bit down lately cause I have heard of 4 pregnancies in the past week.I just couldent believe it seems like one after another.One couple is not even married yet they are engaged.Oh well what can you do I am just trying not to think about it to much and I am happy for them.How are you?Hope you are having a nice day.

Hey Princess well I am sure you read about my appointment I am comitted so I know it will only be a matter of time before these pounds are gone and I am healthier.Happy Birthday to you sweetie.Hope you have a wonderful day.

Love,

Mapia

Hey!

Sounds like all went well with the N/T! And I'm glad she came up with a plan that you think you'll be able to stick with! Do you have to eat cereal for both breakfast and dinner? Like oatmeal? I love salads, (I don't like tomatos either) - but I always ruin them with the dressing, lol! Anyhow, that was a great step that you've taken, and you're going to feel great!!!

Wow - Greece really does sound amazing! DH and I always say we're going to plan a trip there sometime. Maybe we'll do it in a few years!

The pregnancy announcments always seem to come in waves, don't they? And it's hard not to get down. But, just think that all of our BFPs are going to come in waves soon, too - and then all of our happiness will outweigh any negative feelings we're having now!

Well, off to dry my hair -- have to meet FIL, stepMIL, SIL and BIL for dinner with DH (lord help me!!, lol!)!

Love,
Kel

Hey Kelley yes things went well with N/T today she did a body fat check on me today had to go in on an empty stomach.Good thing is I dont have that much body fat which made me feel good so she said being an athlete helped that I have more muscle.I have to have cereal for both breakfast and dinner but she said if its to much for me to call her and she can tell me what else I can have.I figured I can do it for a week since we are trying to get a few pounds off and then she can change it.I dont mind it I like cereal.Well we will see how it goes this week.

Yes those BFP announcments are always a little hard.When I hear a BFP from the boards though it doesnt hurt me at all in fact I am just so happy for my girls.Well good luck with dinner.........lol.Try and enjoy yourself.Cant wait to hear how that goes.Have a nice evening.

Love,

Hi Mapia!

How are you doing today? How's it going with your new diet? I'm really happy that she came up with a plan for you that you find easy to stick with! And that she seems so responsive - like if you have a hard time with something, she'll change it. And it doesn't sound like it's going to be hard at all to lose the weight you want to lose, since you have a lot of muscle!
I'm going to start eating healthy soon, I swear, lol!

Dinner went okay last night, thanks! Everyone behaved themselves pretty much. FIL is pretty self centered and will talk only of himself and any gadgets that he's bought, stepMIL sounds exactly like 'Fran' from that old show 'The Nanny' (but she is much older) and is always in everyone's business (I am a very shy, quiet person -so we don't mix too well), SIL -- well I could go on an on about her - she is a drama queen, BIL is okay - he is actually a human doormat and lets SIL walk all over him. So, with all those personalities, it usually makes for a stressful evening, lol! But it went ok!

How is your day going? I hope all is well and that you're having a good evening so far!

Love,
Kelley

Hi Mapia!! How is the diet giong? It sounds pretty filling, contrary to a lot of diets I've heard of recently! :D I love salads to!! Not a big friend to tomatoes either....they give me heartburn. I don't know what I did to them, but they certainly do not liek me. :)


I'm sorry abotu all the BFP announcements. Now, I KNOW that didn't come out right. BFP announcements from local friends and family and be so hard to deal with (I understand, for me too, board BFPs are a complete different story! I get so happy when I read those!). Do they all know each other? I don't know, but when i come out with my BFP announcement to locals, I woudl be really mad if three other people announced the same thing and stole my thunder lol. Or maybe I'm just a bit childish. ;)

How you gotten to see your adorable godkids yet? I miss hearing abotu them so much, I don't know how you must be going through it. :)

I also just wanted to say that I'm so very proud of you, Mapia. I really am. I knwo you are going to get your BFP really soon. I simply, truly just know it. :angel:

Mapia I am glad that you N/T appointment went well. I am positive with you changing your eating pattern it is going to bring you your BFP.

I hope you have a evening

Hi Kelley glad to hear dinner went well last night wow MIL talks like Fran OMG I would not be able to handle that.........lol.I guess every family has their drama and its funny to hear about it.The diet is going well so far day 2........lol.The best thing about this diet is that she gives you a schedule of what you will eat all week.So no more trying to figure what I will cook.How awesome I love it.......lol.So how is your day?Mine was nice thanks for asking.

Hi Princess well the BFP anouncements are hard and no the girls dont know eachother I happen to know them not very well but I heard about their BFP through others.Anyway what can you do just deal.I saw my godbaby today she is so cute and such a good baby.She is so tickleish that if you tickle her she laughs so hard its so adorable.Godson is just his little devil self........lol.I dont see him as often cause he is in school so I mostly see the baby.Thanks so much for the kind words about being proud of me it made me feel so good when you said that.Thanks for your ongoing support.

Charlene I think this health kick is going to do me a world of good.Shedding these pounds will make me feel so much better and thats what I need right now.Hoping you are having a nice evening as well.

Hey Mapia! Glad things went well with your N/T follow up appt! I also like cereal and have occasionally had it for breakfast and dinner when I'm trying to be healthy. Are you able include oatmeal as an option too? I like oatmeal :) I'm still trying to eat healthy but somehow seem to end up cheating at least once a day :o I think I'll be getting better though cause transfer is only a week from Thursday and I wanna be extra good that last week. ;)

Glad you got to see Godbaby today! Someday soon your BF will be coming to visit you and YOUR little baby!!! You're gonna make a great mom, Mapia. I'm excited to share in the joy of your pregnancy. Crossing my fingers it won't be too long till your next try at it will bring you a BFP. :angel:

Hi Mapia!

How are you today? I hope that all is well!!!! How are you feeling?

How's the diet going? It really does sound like the N/T made it very easy to follow, which is a BIG help! I promised myself this morning that I'm going to try my hardest to start a health kick today! I packed my gym bag and it's in the car. We'll see if I make it there!

Godbaby sounds so cute!!!! And sweet!! You are very lucky to have goddaughter and godson (although I know he can be a handful)!

I hope you had a great day, and I'll talk to you later!

Love,
Kelley
