Oh well teenage boys. You better believe when he wants something (especially money) he doesn't seem to embarassed to come and talk to me.

Love the story Carrie. Love the new avatar........you look very young and hip.

my son thought it was funny, didn't bother him at all, he is a loving boy, hugs me in front of his friends, heck his friends greet me with hugs - maybe it IS cuz i dont look like an old momma

- whatever the reason, i am grateful that my kids and their friends are not embarassed to be seen with me.

i am getting very excited for you tawna - and cant wait for our shopping trip - we will be going bikini shopping for YOU!!!

My 11 year old is more like your son......more affectionate. My 15 year old has a really tough group around his age............don't do anything that might attract the bullies. Tough for him but we have lot's of great conversations. Kids can be so hard on each other.

You a wonderful family Carrie and seem so close to your kids. As mom's we have to cherish all the moments we can.

By the way no bikini shopping here!!!! I'm afraid there will be too much loose skin to deal with. Those are my nightmarish thoughts right now. Will I just hate the end result with all the loose skin? I know my mind is just running over time right now.

How is your jenbear doing? I haven't read anything from her in a while. Hope all is well with Jen.

my jenbear has been having some issues, but they are getting resolved, i will tell her to find her back her again

you are still young enough, your skin might bounce back and the sooner you use weights to tone, the better chance you will have at managing the skin, it wont be perfect, but you can learn to deal with it - and fold it into the cutest clothes.

Thanks hon. I miss her.

Jenbear is playing WOW with me.......hehehehe She is doing pretty good. I haven't talked to her in a couple of days, but I see she has been in Teamspeak. I have just been TOO busy to stop and play the last two days! UGH! I hate it! But she is always in Teamspeak (voice chat) with me almost every evening. I will tell her you guys are missing her too.

Carrie, you story about your son is so funny! I don't think I could have helped myself but to laugh if I had been you. LOL That is hillarious!

hi everyone,
i just wanted to thank the peeps that have pm'd me with their concerns of my being underweight
i am healthy, i feel great, and have no issues being this size - i have a small frame - which is ironic really, cuz i used to say i am not just fat, i am big boned - so not true - here are some pictures from today, as you can see, i am just fine...thanks for being here and looking out for me, hugs to all.

Wow, Grrl!
You do not have even an ounce of fat on your body, do you? Are you sure your weight is appropriate for your age and height? Were these pictures taken when you are closer to 105 or 115? I know my doc said that for 5'3" that 126 is a good healthy weight. Are you shorter than that? Could I ask any more questions?

What is your bmi? That says more about how healthy your weight is. My guess is that it's harder for you to float than before....you've lost all your buoyancy!

Are you, like a size 0? I wear a 2 and you look waaaaay tinier than me!

my weight is good Donna - my BMI is 18.5, so completely normal, these pictures were taken today, my family doc would like to see me around the 115 mark - i am working on building muscle now, so i will bulk up in weight that way - i am a hair shorter than 5'3" more than 5' 2 3/4 so i just say 5'3"

you are right about floating - i sink - i cannot swim anymore, my husband had to save me the last time we went swimming the waves took me under and i couldnt get back up - i have to learn how to swim again

im not worried, i eat, i exercise, i have tons of energy, i feel great!!! have added some skim milk to my fluids now to add a few extra calories, but have kicked up the weight training - want to do it that way - i just wanted to post here as i have been getting pm's as well as one post in my thread asking me if my weight is okay - and it is - just wanted to address it so people dont feel they have pm me, i am doing very well! thanks everyone.
