Congrats!!! Yes, the ironies of life. 

Congratulations :-) 

Congratulations you've been blessed. 

Oh My Gosh!!! I didn't see that coming either!! Congratulations!!!!!!! 

Thank you all! I am happy, but sort of still in shock. Never worked when I was on fertility pills. So, I had sort of given up. Funny how that happens. 

Hmm. That is exactly what *I* would have thought if it were me. Im in my 50's,you're in your 40's. My children are grown,on their own with their spouses. Your children are teen agers probably dreaming of being on their own. The common denominator in both our lives is that we have been able to carve out a measure of time to spend on ourselves, in the way we want. Setting goals,meeting new challenges. Well........hmm. Didn't see that coming...............New challenges bring new goals.............YOU have already accepted the challenge: "It's going to take me a little longer.....I will contact race officials....." GOOD FOR YOU,You didn't shove your present goals aside in the face of this new challenge! You,whether you realized it or not,began the thought process of how to reach your goals despite the challenge!!! Life does throw a heck of a lot of curves. And challenges are *meant* to change us. Just HOW that change effects us is determined by our response to the challenge. In *my* opinion,your attitude shows that YOU are most definitely UP to the challenge! *I* wish YOU well at meeting it head on in YOUR positiveness. My advice(which you did not ask for) is to down play what in your opinion is undesirable & find the JOYS there are in it. KEEP them in mind while you work out your new plan of reaching your goals. Reaching them may just prove a sweeter victory! :)  

Congrats! so....I guess those "20 pounds" from studying so hard may have been from a lil sumpin else..hehehe. Take care of you (both).  

Congratulations. I hope I'm pregnant, that would be an excellent excuse for my gain lol. Kidding aside though, extremely happy for you. I know how badly you wanted this, no one deserves it more. 

Oh, and please don't leave us. I've grown rather fond of you and would really love to be a small part of your life during your pregnancy :) 

Thank you all! Yolanda, I'm going nowhere. No worries. I'm going to try to do a healthy pregnancy, which will require me to still track my calories daily. I wish I could blame the 20 pounds on baby weight, but I believe it was more of a food baby that brought on the 20.  

Wow...congrats!
