Thanks Angela! I totally agree with you and hear this more and more from
people: Being obese may make you at a higher RISK for problems, but it
sure doesn't mean you'll get them! And being "normal" weight maybe puts
you at low risk, but of course there's no guarantee that you WON'T have
problems. I just wish doctors saw it that way! I mean really!! So far,
me and baby are doing just fine and healthy :) My last bp was 110/65 -
normal for me. And of course the weight loss too. I'm thrilled about
this!
*hugs* Thanks for the note!
