Hi Girls! EC on Friday AM. We still only have 4 follies but I am keeping positive that each one has a beautiful egg. Poor DH has to drive from Vienna tomorrow night, do his thing, drive back to Vienna for some meeting, then back to Munich Friday PM for the weekend. We have backup but I really want some fresh 'stuff'. :D

I am definitely not a Brad fan at all....I think Angelina is going to dump him. I also read JLo is not pregnant (she has fertility issues) but is adopting a little girl from Puerto Rico. It has been pretty quiet on the celeb gossip front....

I went to high school with Vince Vaughn...I don't think him and Jen are shacking up.

Off to do the dreaded HCG shot :shock:

OK, so everyone sitting down? I have news....it's official....

I need to find a new fan club.

Brad and Tom are both out due to idiocy...so I gotta find someone new. Any ideas?

Traci--You'll be in my prayers...wishing you all the best for Friday...lots of relaxation & positive thoughts....
So, you don't think Vince & Jen? Well, I hope she finds someone...I can't help but root for her! Where did you go to school...any other celebs in your hometown?
Poor DH...that's alot of driving, but fresh 'stuff' is very important!! :wink:

Angela: yep, it's pretty cold here lately, the last couple of days have been around -15C at night, and around -10C during the day, but windchill is making it feel much colder. We have very little snow, which is wierd for this area...we usually have a good snow cover this time of year. Hopefully the warmer weather will be just around the corner :) .
Still sending you lots of smilies for your 2ww... :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

I12b: OK, so that clears up what 'beta' is...so now, I think you've confirmed it...you are definitely having either twins or a full-grown toddler...can't wait to hear your scan results!

Eminde: oh hun, we are all cheering on you and your little embies! Enjoy your break, and treat yourself well! :wink:

sml: we're missing you girl! :( What's up? Stop by and tell us how things are going!

As for me...actually, it would be great if we could go for IUI on the weekend..that way I don't miss any work and can rest up for a couple of days...so guess we'll just have to wait and see :) .

Weigh in was today and...(drum roll please)....

another 1.5 lbs gone.

Actually, not as good as I was hoping, but that's 3.5 in total so far that I won't have to put into my bathing suit in a month :wink: .

I've copied our list below just to carry onto the new page..take care everyone!

Don’t appreciate you gals busting my balls on this thread…..Have done my best to do the right thing but it’s not easy. Angelina’s becoming a pain in the ass ‘cause it’s her way or the highway and Jen won’t even speak to me. Wondering why I even bother with these women. Maybe I’ll give Tom a call and see if he’d be into jumping a couple of Oprah’s sofas with me :wink:

Hi All

Jan Tell me about trying to lose weight. I think it is a never ending battle. I had to lose 2 1/2 stone in order to start IUI. I have kept most of this off for about a year now but am still about 1 1/2 stones overweight according to those silly height weight charts. However I have stopped trying while doing the IUI as I couldn't cope with that as well. Been indulging myself a bit so will probably have gained some weight. Just so long as if this doesn't work I haven't gained over 5 pounds or we won't be able to go for IVF in May.

Brad Welcome :?: :?:

Traci I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you for Friday. Hope you have 4 lovely eggs. Poor DH having to drive all of that way. Mind you I do think at times they have the easier part of this treatment deal.

Eminde Hope all is well with the little embies.

As for me I am trying to take it easy at work as we run a club which can be quite physical. I think DH now getting fed up of having to do most of the work.

Speak to you all soon

Hot off the press....Brad and Angie are hitched.

I will definitely, definitely write more tomorrow after I wake up and coherent (clinic uses GA which makes me groggy for the day). Off to watch some junk TV and rub my belly :shock:

Traci--we're holding you to that! Rub that belly like a genie in a bottle girl!

Angela--yeah, I hate those charts. Since muscle weighs more than fat, I prefer to think I have lots of muscle... :wink:

Jen--the best thing you ever did was kick that boy to the curb! You need to find yourself a nice 'hunk' o' burnin' love now...!

Here my life is all about peeing on a stick! Still waiting for the LH surge...will keep you posted.

Later gals,

Well what do we have here? Celebrity hour at the 3-0 Club :) Next time Brad drops in, can someone ask him for Matt Damon’s number or anyone of those “Ocean 11” fellas will do….(yummy,yummy! I’ll have one of those to go please!). Like you Traci, I’m convinced Angelina will drop kick his ass, despite recent news. I think she’s a bit of a “black widow” and once she’s bored, game over.

Well, this is a short one, as currently feeling like a host to an alien body snatcher, whose sole purpose on earth is to eat and test all human bodily functions (Gross!....I know).

Btw, Jan well done for the 1.5lbs loss this week, looks like you’ll be giving Paris Hilton and Jessica Simpson a run for their money in your bathing suit, on the beach 8) and great to hear from you Pam, hope you’re doing well.

Hi Ladies,

Not posted here since embies died on ET day. However I am feeling very positive. I'm too am trying desperately to lose weight. I have 15 weeks before I go to my nephews wedding and 12 weeks to my holiday on the lovely greek island of Skiathos. I hope to lose 2 stone, which I had previously gained after giving up cigarettes 2.5 years ago. So thats approx 2lbs per week... mega gym work coming on.

I'm loving the celeb gossip... The only celebs I ever see are footballers... a lot of Man Utd players living in my area and surrounding areas... Would so prefer to run into George Clooney... he is my dream man...Brad... sorry you don't do it for me...

Tracii, Hope all is well at EC today... Rest up loads...will say a prayer for u that you get a few embies to put back...

To all the rest of the ladies... have a great weekend.

Nicki - nice to see you back here. It's lovely, you always have so much PMA! How did your appt go?
I12b - hope you're feeling better? I'm sure I can manage to eat a portion of fish and chips for you :wink: Oh dear, this isn't really in keeping with the weight loss theme, is it?!
Jan - really hope that LH surge happens SOON!! And well done on your weight loss.
Traci - how are you doing?? Hope it all went well.
angela - thanks, the embies are hopefully doing well. I'm not feeling anything different so it's just a matter of waiting... Hope your 2ww isn't dragging on too long.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!
