Just got home from a business trip...with a big smile on my face.
In addition to once again flying without a seat belt extender...(seccond time since surgery) I:
1) saw daylight! What??? you may ask...I saw light between my legs while getting dressed for work in the hotel. Okay, guys, for women this is a BIG DEAL! LOL
2) got a compliment from a stranger...male...my age. Yup.
3) MADE IT TO ONEDERLAND!!! Got home last night, weighed in this morning just because I felt I made have done it...YAHOO!
Still have a ways to go before I make it to my goal but I love the happy stops along the road. To any of you who are losing slowly like I am...you still get there, you just have more time to enjoy the journey. SLOW LOSING IS BETTER THAN NO LOSING! And these little NSVs mean a lot.
Thanks everytbody for being here to celebrate our victories together as well as share our concerns!

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
