How is everyone doing with recovery? I'm so proud of myself! I ate a hamberger! (it's one of my worst fear foods!) It was a very big step in my recovery. Although I have been cutting back a little bit. I haven't skipped any meals. Just a cutting out a few snacks and 100 calories here or there. But I better stop because I'll end up losing weight. It's just so hard to eat a lot every single day. But I'd love to hear how everyone else is doing!

Oh that's great, there's nothing like a good burger! And you're right, you have to keep on eating even if you don't feel like it. You're doing great and working towards a better life, you don't want to get set back. I'm so proud of you!

I'm doing pretty good, I had a moment of weakness the other day actually which made me real uncomfortable. DH and I have been talking, well, more like me trying to convince him to have another baby, lol. And then for a brief moment I had a little panic attack about "baby weight". So, that was a little bothersome to me. But, if I made it through one pregnancy ok I know I could do it again. And there are a lot of exercise classes for women who just had a baby, so I could do it all the healthy way. So I think I'm still doing ok, lol. I'm a little worried about how I'll do if/after I have another baby, that will be a big test for me! I try not to think about that though because I have a long hard road just getting my hubby to agree to another baby, lol!

I looooooooooove babies! You can lose all that baby weight when you have the baby! Don't worry! My mom did and she looks better than ever! Do you want to have a boy or a girl?

I know, so do I! I'm a mom you know, that's what I'm good at, that's what I'm meant to do! Yeah I'm trying not to think of the weight thing so much, right now I'm just trying to get DH to say yes to having one, lol! Really, if I get to have another one, I just want a healthy baby. But I think I would prefer another girl, probably because its easier being one you know, lol. I'm afraid I wouldn't be too good at playing with boy stuff you know. Plus, DH I think would prefer a girl too, I know his biggest issue is he doesn't want a little mini him running around. He's a good man, so a little him would be nice, but he just doesn't see his good qualities. I just have to get him to say yes!

I hope he says yes too, lol! I'm TRYING to be patient and give him his time, its a huge decision you know. One kid is a lot, let alone 2!

But yes, being a mom is great! Its the absolute hardest most rewarding job in the world!

Sorry to hear about your migraines, aren't those the worst! I get them from time to time too, usually from stress. But when I get them, its like every day for a week stretch. I hope your's have gone away!

I used to get headaches all the time but then I started drinking a lot of water and they went away! Also, getting a lot of sleep helps headaches too!
