    Dear Friends,

    I have.

    I was out of town doing three days of hard physical labor at 7000 feet, in the blazing sun. Five pounds lost may not seem much, but I sure can't seem to lose it by diet alone. This was a surprise.

    You'll be seeing less of me!

    In 2006 I lost 40 pounds in 2 months without trying. That, along with my unquenchable thirst prompted me to see a doctor. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. It was nice to lose the weight, but I wish I found a better way to do it.

    I lost 28lbs in six months a decade ago due to eating less and moving about (a lot) more.

    I wish I could replicate that in 2009...

    I lost 40 pounds in 15 days when I almost died of a tumor in my head. Of course, it wasn't really unexpected....

    I lost eight pounds in two weeks when my current hubby and I began our physical relationship.

    Previous to that I had spent most of my adult life married to a gay JW. Sex with him probably only burned about eight calories.

    I had lots of catching up to do.

    Yes. I lost 5 lbs overnight after a particularly nasty fight with my fiance. I knew I couldn't marry him after that. And I didn't. Bad stress tends to make me shed pounds suddenly.

    Dear fellow-shedders,

    I had no idea there were so many ways to lose weight! Obviously, you all lived to tell, but I'm sorry you had to go through all that. Well - with one exception ...

    Thanks much.
