i am prob gonna go exercise after an appt this evening. go to the gym and do a mix of weights and cardio. just started getting back on the exercise program. i was in dc on saturday and was on my feet for 8 hrs (lots of walking) and was tired but not exhausted. so things are awesome w/ my stamina. the guy i was with was impressed and felt like I did better than he did and he is thin and exercises regularly. so that felt good

Okay, now we're getting somewhere.  It might not be where I was hoping, but at least it's somewhere.  From the short time I've been back, I have come to this conclusion through my tireless hours of research.  Ok, just kidding.  Anyway, it is apparent that Tia had some not so nice things to say about Julie and then eventually apologized, which Julie accepted.  Julie claims that Tia's rants continued beyond the apology and sosureofme claims to have had run ins with Tia as well.  They both seem to think Tia ran people off the board.  Andy thinks that Tia was a huge inspiration and support regular on here for a long time and has helped many individuals with problems over the course of time.  Andy thinks it all sounds like a bunch of junior high drama that really should cease if this board is going to get to where it needs to be.  By no means am I pointing fingers, but I am going to ask this:  "Can't we all just get along"?  Please?

Since the second trimester, my exercise has consisted of walks to the bathroom and the kitchen.

But, on a positive note, I already have my plan in place for after maternity leave :)

It is a shame that what I posted annoyed you .Do you think you are perfect?  I was told it bothered you that I did not have surgery yet but continued to stay active on the board. I really would have thought that someone that was not a total success would have had empathy towards someone like me.  I am curious if each person that posts here is annoyed by what others say?  This is an open board and if you did not like what I said why did you continue to read my posts and verbally talk behind my back with others. I had even invited you to sit across a table from me so we could discuss this like adults. You chose to go behind my back and use an open forum.  A place where people came for help with weight issues. You did apologize and I accepted it but you did not stop talking. Not only did you not stop talking you were angry with others who tried to support me.  I think that the next time you go to criticize or judge someone  your 1st stop should be the mirror.

When I joined the board you were supportive and then you decided to become a Drama Queen and you turned the board into your social network.. Once you posted the Shepherd the game started. How immature think about what I have said and even though you posted you really can't do more than that I feel you can and should.  I hope with your new relationship you find happiness & peace and can let go of some bitterness and negativity.
