For the first time since I don't know when the scale was nice to me when it wasn't my weigh in day. My weight is usually 1 - 2 pounds higher during the week than it is on the weekend. Today it was the lowest it has been in over a year. That sure helped my motivation.

I didn'teat the best after work. My husband was so happy that he brought me home a blizzard from DQ. I put it in my tracker and am still fine. I had no desire to let it turn into a binge either, in fact I have no desire to eat anything else.

My husband has started talking about having a baby. Awhile back we thought I was pregnant and he was over the moon happy, but he's never wanted to try. I know he would be happy if I were to get pregnant, but it's never been a big goal of his. He even brought up the possibility of adoption if we can't. Never thought that would happen. I know women who were able to get pregnant at my age or older so I feel more hopeful than I have in a long time. Now I just need to get him thinking about different girl names. A boy name is easy, but a girl name is harder because the name I have always wanted was taken by my sister-in-law. That's a whole other story. I know there is no need to worry about that now but since my life-long dream has been to be a mom I have spent a lot of time thinking about it. Here's hoping dreams can come true.

    The boy name is William Michael. My brother's name was William (Willie) and my husband's middle name and dad's first name is Michael. The name I have always wanted for a girl is Emily Ann. My grandmother was Emily and my middle name and my mom's middle name is Ann and my other grandma's middle name was Anntoinette. I like names with meaning. For a girl my husband wants Margaret. I like Maggie ok and Margaret sounds good with Ann. My SIL decided she wanted to get pregnant as soon as we got engaged and immediately told me she wouldn't be able to stand up in the wedding because she hoped to be pregnant by then and then named her daughter Emily Anne.

    THAT IS A HUGE DECISION. WOMEN ARE HAVING HEALTHY BABIES AT A LOT OLDER AGE THAN THEY USED TO. I THINK IT'S DUE TO PROGRESS IN PRE-NATAL CARE. NOW YOU HAVE ME CURIOUS - WHAT IS THE NAME THAT'S A DONE DEAL AND WHAT WAS THE NAME YOUR SIL STOLE?

PS - I ALWAYS WANTED TO BE A MOM TOO - IT WAS MY MAIN DREAM IN LIFE.

  First, emoticon on your Weight Loss! Second, I think it is Great that both of you are now talking about having a child. I think it is also Great that your husband mentioned adoption if you cannot if you cannot have a child. There are so many children out there that need good loving homes. You will be a Great Mother!

GOD BLESS!
Louise
