ugh

I overate tonight.  We went out for B's birthday dinner, and I always eat to much at this restaurant, but it is so yummy, and I can't help it.  I did eat a little less than normal, but still too much!  I hope it doesn't set me back too much with the weight loss.  I've been stuck and plan to kick-up the elliptical.  I guess tomorrow is the perfect day to start, since I don't go to have to work. 

Also tomorrow, I'm gonna go meet the baby.  She's one of us.  Her last fresh cycle ended in miscarriage, and she had 2 of her 3 frozen transferred, and now a 9 pound baby.  She's been supportive of me, and will continue to be.  It's still going to hurt, but I hope that her baby will be sort of a sign of hope.  We shall see!  I'll let you know tomorrow!

    I hope that everything goes well with seeing your friend's baby, and that it is a sign of hope for you. I am excited to hear about it!

    I think that it is fine to overeat once in a while! That is how I was able to lose a lot of weight. I overate once in a while to keep myself sane. Sanity and not feeling deprived is huge during weight loss. And you mentioned that you didn't eat as much as you normally would have. That is huge! (Meanwhile, I have gained 8 pounds back out of the 50 and am eating like a starving pig during every. single. meal lately, but whatever...)

    I love reading all of your posts this month!

    I hope your evening went well and that it was more a night of hope than longing.

    I hope the visit went well. It can be so, so difficult to bear witness to someone else's baby joy...

    And I agree, the occasional overindulgence does a mind good! And besides, it was a special day! :)

    All my best to you...

It's you!

"It's you!  I just know it!  You've lost some weight, it must be because of the morning sickness!" No, it's not me.  I'm not pregnant. "But is HAS to be you.  Who else could it be?  You just don't want to tell because it is too early" No, really.  It's not me.  I promise.  I haven't cheated on my husband.   "Well, who else could it be?" Um, one of the other 20 teachers of child bearing age at this school.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I've guessed the other two pregnant teachers, before I even knew there were pregnant teachers at my school.  I have 'pregodar' (like gaydar, but for preggos) and really can sense the preggos around me.  I hadn't pegged a 3rd teacher, but I heard a rumor that there is a third when I started being hounded, and I think I have it figured out.  Its the one on her 3rd engagement and 3rd marriage in 5 years.  She's reaching the top of her realistic baby time, so it makes sense.

plugging along

There really isn't much to say at this point.  I'm plugging along, doing fine. Yesterday, I bowed out of a BBQ with B's family.  In May I mentioned BIL's ex and her "surprise" (planned) pregnancy.  One of the reasons for this BBQ was for BIL's birthday, and she decided to drive down to attend (she's still living 5-6 hours away).  She's like 26 weeks pregnant, and the thought of having to spend the day with her made me feel ill.  BIL isn't planning on living with her and the baby or marrying her, but will go visit often.  She is such an attention whore, I couldn't deal with her talking about the baby and flaunting the fact that she is still around because of it.  I've felt a little bit of a cold coming on, so I exaggerated it and stayed home.  I did end up throwing up my dinner, so I'm glad I didn't go. I felt a little guilty about skipping out on this, but I got over it quickly.  MIL was hoping that B and I would announce our

off with the crazies

Well, as expected, I had a pretty crappy Christmas.  Christmas eve was actually the best part.  We always celebrate on Christmas eve with my mom's side of the family.  That was actually fine.  Christmas day, not so much.  First, at my dad's side of the family lunch, I've never felt like such an outsider.  Christmas at the IL's started out fine.  BIL's dumb girlfriend decided to group each person's gifts in a pile, and we opened gifts one person at a time.  This took forever, and was kind of annoying.  For this group, we set up a gift exchange with B's brothers, so that we didn't have to buy for everyone.  I did the arranging for this, and think I did a good job.  I gave everyone opportunity to give input and include anyone else who was not included (didn't know if BIL's girlfriend was coming), compiled the responses, and sent out the information.  After all of that, B's brother went and got something for everyone, which really set me off.  Be
