Feeling Lost
on December 13, 2012 8:38 am

I have gained 15 pounds. I know what the problem is. It's stress and what I'm eating. I'm contemplating leaving finally. I know I've talked about it off and on here, but I am at my breaking point. I don't know who's still around here. It seems like it's died down around here and I keep telling ya'll I'm on FB. Come on over and friend me there. I have more pics! LOL But I am so depressed right now and I feel like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I have 3 children now. We ended up adopting my oldest son's biological brother. Then last month, I found out that I was going through pre-menopause and I was contemplating having another baby. I actually tried to get pregnant last month and I'm said to say that it didn't work. I'm depressed about that too. But...it's just alot.

Hey ya'll! I know...I'm late as usual...but hey, I still come around to check on ya'll and to keep myself in check. I currently weigh 147 pounds almost 8 months after the birth of Broderick. I'm wearing small/med tops and size 7/8 pants. I had wrote a long post, but when I submitted it...it disappeared. *sigh* I will post again soon~

7 Weeks Left (as of May 20th)
on May 19, 2011 9:25 am
Hey ya'll! This pregnancy has went by really fast for me! I can't believe my new little boy will be here soon! I've gained a total of 6 pounds. I had gained 9, lost 8.5 and then gained 5.5. I will be so glad when this is over so I can stop craving foods and stop eating as much. I feel like I'm eating all the time! As far as the marriage, it's not getting any better. I'm just going with the flow. I'm at the point now where I don't even want my husband in the delivery room! Sad, but true. I attend my first Childbirth class on Tuesday and I was there alone. I was the only one that didn't have a partner. He didn't want to go. I said screw it. He stayed home with our other son even though we had a sitter just so he would be able to attend the class with me. I'm not begging him to go or do anything else with me. He knows what needs to be done. I shouldn't have to remind him of A, B, & C. But enough about that....

Is it me or does it seem like the forums on here aren't being updated as much. It seems like no one is posting anything anywhere. I've been looking for the pregnancy stuff and the postings there are old~ lol Anyway, I will let ya'll go! I will be in touch again soon! I'm ready to get in the gym, lose the rest of my weight and get my boobs done. LOL Come on July 8th!!

Long time no see....
on March 27, 2011 4:11 pm
Hey ya'll. It's been a while. From what I've noticed...after the surgery, you become so engrossed in your "new life" that you forget or don't have time to come back to OH. I need to come back here more often for motivation and as a reminder of where I was before so that I won't end up there again. Let's see, what's been going on with me....well since October...we've finally moved into our own place and that happened in December 2010 and by the way, we found out that we were pregnant in October....on the 28th to be exact.mOur 4th wedding anniversary. Right now I am currently 6mths and almost 2wks pregnant with a little boy. I don't know how I really feel about this pregnancy to be honest with you. I've only gained 1pound so far and I've been eating, TRUST ME. I'm still not able to eat alot and I THANK GOD FOR THAT!

I started out weighing 183 at my initial prenatal check up. Now I weigh 177. I was weighing 176 the month b4 last. So I'll take it. The baby is growing fine. My 2year old does not have a clue as to what is going on. I've been teaching him the word baby to prepare him for the birth of his lil brother. I haven't shopped much at all. I guess I'm not that enthusiastic because of the current relationship state of my husband and I. I want a divorce. You see...lemme start from the beginning. At my lovely weight of 2hunned and sumthin pounds....I married the man that I thought I was supposed to marry. He is disabled, he has cerebral palsy and walks with crutches. No other disabilities...(except mental sometimes....~upward eyeroll...but I digress~) I know with every fiber in me that I settled into this marriage because of low self esteem. He couldn't drive, only had eyes for me and didn't really deal with any other chicks....(don't get me wrong, during our dating phase....I had to put a few in check...) but now I'm at this point where there are certain things that I've been putting up with for too long. Things that I chose to ignore, overlook, and just say "oh well" about. Since having the surgery almost 2 years ago...(OMG!) I am no longer able to tolerate those things. Some of these issues I did not know about until after we got married and now I feel like I'm trapped.

My husband is lazy (they enabled him his entire life) he is not romantic, cheap, doesn't have any other goals in life, does not aspire to do anything else productive. Case in point....I'm 6mths pregnant. He was just laid off from his job of 5 years on the 16th of this month, this guy is actually tryna sit out of work and collect unemployment for a while and just chill. He tells me everyday that he is looking for a job. I am like WTH??? In my mind I imagined him (or fantasized....) about him being in such an uproar bout how he wasn't going to be sitting around because he had a new baby coming and his wife is currently unemployed that he just will not sit around and be without...he has a FAMILY to provide for and etc....~blankstare..~ yeah...my life. So I'm just waiting. There are other things that I'm DYING to share, but I am afraid that I will be embarassed... My family tried to tell me not to marry him and that it was only going to get worse and they are right. I've did the take it to Jesus thing and I am starting to wonder does the Lord really want his children to stay together forever and be unhappy?? We've been together a total of 16 years and married for 4 out of those years. I try not to envy my friends and their marriages and how their husband treat them. Oh yeah the treatment I've been receiving with this pregnancy is nothing for me to brag about.

This is my 2nd "First Pregnancy." My 2 year old son is adopted and we miscarried on 3/21/10 at 10 weeks with our first pregnancy. I thought I was going to get the " No baby, I do that for ya" or the "don't move I'll get it" NONE OF THAT....it's more like...."Hey you in the kitchen? What about fixin me some...or can you get me or what bout getting US some etc..." But when I ask him to do something for me...he won't move right away....in fact sometimes he won't move at all and I"ll end up doing it myself with him yelling in the background to "bring me some too..." UGH...I"m so frustrated right now and at a loss. I've been so worried about what people will say and think about me. I've been worried about God and my place in heaven and if I were to divorce and get married if I would be considered committing adultery ~per the Bible...~ I just don't believe that God wants us to be in an unhappy marriage. It takes two, you have to work together and etc and I feel that I've more than done that...it's not being reciprocrated. I've expressed my feelings to him on more than one occasion and cried and yelled and screamed and nothing has worked. It has went in one ear and out of the other. I've been praying and asking God to deliver me and etc...I don't know ya'll. I'll take all of the advice I can get. ~WHEW~ Yeah, it's been a long time and I've missed ya'll and it feels good to vent. I will be posting pictures soon!
