I totally agree! We arent guilt tripping by being honest! These are our beliefs and personal opinions. She can still abort her child if she wishes, we just stated that we wouldnt and gave our reasons why. This is a topic best left off of here. I wish no one any ill will, only positive thoughts!

Congrats girl!! You look awesome! Don't let that one stinkin pound get you down, you will make it!!

I'm from Beaver Dam WI. I had my surgery at Columbia St Marys in Milwaukee. Didn't see that but will check it out!

I rarely even look at fat when I buy. I mostly focus on carbs. I agree that since we can only eat a little amount, I want it to taste good!

http://www.caloriesperhour.com/tutorial_water.php Here is a link on drinking Water and weight loss. This may pertain more to your initial question! Hope it gives you some answers.

I am exactly the same way. In fact sometimes I wonder if I drink too much Water a day!

Today is my one year surgiversary! Doesn't seem real that a year has passed. When I think of where we started, and re-read some of our first posts, it shows that we have come A LONG WAY!! I am so glad that I have had all of you to help me, and hope I have helped you some in return. Thanks a million April peeps. Couldn't have done it without all your support!! Over 140 lbs gone from this girl FOREVER!! WHOOT!

Well with over 140 lbs gone, which is bigger than you Alaina!, I feel a ton better. No more excessive sweating, losing breath when doing little tasks, and not being able to find anything that fits! In fact now when I shop, I have a hard time deciding what to buy, because so much does fit! I have actually starting walking a bit despite by back and leg pain and I love the way it makes me feel. I initially had the bypass to help my back pain, and while that didn't happen, I am so grateful that I had the surgery. It has changed my life forever. Just would like to lose about 20-30 more, but if not, I'm OK with it!

Happy Easter all. Since Tuesday is my Surgerversary, i thought I'd post a picture of my progress. I'd like to lose another 30 or so but it is what it is! Have a great day all! [ATTACH]43626[/ATTACH]

You are a GREAT mama too Alaina! I have your back and always will! Love you!

I TOTALLY agree! A mother will do what she has to to make sure her child is happy and healthy! I'm impressed by how far you have come. I couldn't imagine a baby at 14, but you seem like a great mom!! ????

I do these same things. We have to be able to have the things we love, just revised, if we are to be successful!

First of all, congrats on the weight loss. I am like you; I need to loose more but am OK where I'm at. Great job! Second of all, I am very sorry you are having conflicting feeling about your pregnancy. I wasn't married with either of my first two children. We were together as a couple but didn't get married until after I had our second child. We didn't have our own home either, we rented. We lived paycheck to paycheck. I would NEVER use this as a reason to not have a child. You have said you would be a great mom and that you and your partner love each other. THAT is what matters! Take a chance! A baby is a gift from God or whoever you believe in!! You can do it; people do it all the time, and with much less than you have! As for your mental state; your conflicting feeling show that you are thinking this through, both for yourself and your unborn child. That is a sign of mental stability if you ask me. Good luck to you and keep us posted! I wish you the best as always.

She is pretty AWESOME!!

Awesome job Krystal!! ☺

98 pounds is nothing to be ashamed of! Awesome job! Those last two pounds will come off, just keep at it. It took me FOREVER AND A DAY to reach 199! LOL And the 17th is a few days away yet so don't give up!

Awe my friend!! You look beautiful! Congrats on you surgiversary, and all that you have accomplished! Doesn't seem real that it has been that long already! I so wish we could have a reunion and all meet. Maybe someday! Keep up the awesome work and don't be a stranger.

I did and EVERYTHING looks good. We will be making a visit there! Thanks!

Kindle, where are you from?? I'm in Beaver Dam WI and Almond is about 75 miles from me. I will definitely be making the trip for some shrimp pizza!!

I do, but only thin crust now. None of that wonderful, thick, stuffed crust....drooling now. Gosh I miss it!

My first name; boring I know! ☺

Diet Pepsi- used to drink everyday and haven't had for over a year. Big bowl of pasta-spaghetti, ravioli, or anything!! Pizza- big, thick crust, loaded pizza Miss these three things most of all even though I am very happy with surgery!!

Her everyone! Hope you all are doing good! Have had a couple of really good days with minimal pain. Went on a walk yesterday and today did a walk AND a bike ride with my son. Leg and back felf fairly good. Better with riding the bike for sure! Felt so good to get out and exercise a bit. Hopefully I can continue with lessened pain. Maybe I will reach my goal of 30 more pounds!! Have my year appointment on the 29 the and will see where I'm at then! Enjoy the good weather. Spring is here! ????

I thought I was gonna get around having this happen to me because the rest of my April group was losing and I wasn't. Then BAM, it started! Hair everywhere! I thought it was really bad until I had a haircut and the beautician commented on thick and healthy my hair was! I guess I had a lot beforehand! Anyway, I am almost a year out and it has stopped. Hang in there!
