I ended up writing a letter to the police dept. and have it in the mail today. It explains in detail everything that I have witnessed first hand since they moved in. Hopefully it does some good. I did point out we live in a school zone and school starts Aug. 21, and I afraid someone will get hurt or killed if this crazy disrepect continues. Thanks for all your input, I will let you know what happens!

That really pisses me off when people treat people badly because of their weight or other health problems. One part of me says "forgive & forget and they will get it in the end when judgment day comes", another part says kick him where it counts, either literally or find some of their flaws and expose them. Either way you need to let your feelings be known. Whether it is by letter, email, phone call or in person. There is no reason two grown men should be treating anyone like this, let alone their sister! Also is it possible they are jealous of your marraige, beautiful children and wonderful life? Best of luck to you on your journey and this deal!

(((HUGS))) back to you! I just got up 1/2 hour ago, checking my email, sipping my crystal light and trying to be quiet while dh sleeps. We both work the grave yard shift. Other than that just enjoying the nice breeze and the roar of Harleys as they fly down I-90 to Sturgis, SD.

Thanks for the great advice. I think I will try a little of each. Thanks!

I believe they are called a "Gunsmith". Check your local yellow pages or check sports shops that carry guns. Good Luck.

I have the worse time with any kind of chicken. Dark meat, white meat, grilled, baked, broiled, fried (uh oh) whatever. I have tried and I just can't eat it. Maybe next year....well maybe not. :eek:

yes! Your food processor or blender will be your best friend during the puree/mushie stage!

Hubby and I want to start having children. We have been married just two years and together three. I am 34 and he is 37, so my biological clock is ticking BIG time. We have spoke to a fertility specialist and he confirmed I have PCOS, but felt confident I could get pregnant with the help of fertility drugs. Problem is I am no where near my goal weight. I just celebrated my 1 year bandiversary 7/29. Give me some input. We both have been wanting children for years! Should we start fertility drugs or wait longer?

LMAO!! That was great! Hee hee!

Well it has been one year exactly today since I was officially banded. I must say it was well worth everything I had to go through. The weightloss hasn't been as fast as I first thought it would be, however I am pleased with my progress. My health is 98% improved, I feel sexier, I wear a smaller size and I have more energy! Life is good!

HAZELNUT TREE (Extraordinary) -- charming, sense of humor, very demanding but can also be very understanding, knows how to make a lasting impression, active fighter for social causes and politics, popular, quite moody, sexually oriente d, honest, a perfectionist, has a precise sense of judgment and expects complete fairness. Boy this describes me perfectly!

As of late I have noticed other men, besides my DH checking me out. It is such a great feeling to get the looks again. I am still far from my goal or ideal weight, but it sure is nice to feel sexy again! :clap2:

I agree with the comment about possible water retention. Usually high blood pressure and water retention go hand in hand. The water retention may be the cause of your weight gain. See you doc and get a duiretic (water pill) if needed. I have on/off high bp meds since my teens, (family history & obesity), and have NEVER gained weight on a BP med. Best of luck to you!

Here are three more recent (July 06) pics of me, our "boy" Ethan and my DH.

Wow that is so scary! I don't have children of my own, but know that sinking feeling when you can't find a child! That teacher needs slapped...only 3 kids in the class and she didnt know where your child was. I could understand maybe if there were 10 or so children. But still it is her job to keep track of her students until a parent picks them up. As far as swimming lessons my sister and I took them as children for several years after we almost drowned in a river. I don't ever remember the instructor (Red Cross) ever expecting or taking us in the deep water. We were taught the basics, plus survival swims, floating and even rescue breathing. We were never encouraged to go in the deep end or deep water, unless we were on the diving board. I would question the director of the facility about this teacher's ideas, maybe someone needs to drop her in the deep end with a heavy brick.

Sign me up I just PMed you!

My gift arrived in SD today from jessiebear! Thank you. I received a patriotic beanie babie bear (light blue with little American flags all over it). My Basset hound Ethan tried to claim him. I also got some mango mandarin body moisturizer (Bath & Body Works) & some Mango Sorbetto moisturizing souffle....mmmm smells good enough to eat. Plus a Spring flower scented candle and potpourri and a nice Hallmark card! Thanks so much for the wonderful gifts...you rock! Happy 4th Everyone!

DH and I are going to Michigan July7-14 to visit my family and friends. We will definitely make a trip to Lake Michigan, buy some smoked fish, maybe fudge and pick up some souvenirs!

I chew gum first thing in the morning after working all night. It helps to freshen my breath and keeps my mind off food while I am cooking for the ladies I provide services to.

bumping up for the newbies! Let's recycle and get some great "junk" too!:clap2:

There is nothing more annoying than getting a rude customer service rep. The policy should be that the customer is always right no matter what. JMO. I also get very frustrated when you call any customer service line and get someone who can barely speak english. It is VERY annoying to have them keep repeating them selves or to have to ask for a manager or someone else to finish the call. UGH!

My package is going out in tomorrow's mail! I hope my secret pal likes it! :clap2:

Thanks for the great advice. I think I will call them tomorrow and make an appointment. Worse case scenerio they will say I dont need a fill or they cant get me in till after my vacation.
