It will Grow Back

Mar 15, 2012

OK Friends, I need some love and support. I am a victim of bad situation. About a month ago I asked my hairdresser if I could try and go "red". She agreed and we tried it. It didn't take, so the next week I asked her to perm my hair and rinse it back black. Well, that was a mistake. All of my hair fell out around the edges. I was not aware that the "red" color was a permanent color and that's not good. I tried to cover it up with a bad weave but I wasn't happy, So today I decided to go NATURAL......check out my photos and show me some love.......LOL

I made it through Thanksgiving!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nov 28, 2011

Hello Everyone, I just wanted to post that I made it through Thanksgiving without gaining any weight. I am 17months out from Surgery and I can eat a larger portion of food now, but I chose not to do so. I sampled every dish and moved on. I was proud of myself because in the past I would eat until I darn near passed out from being full. I have lost 115lbs, I Love my SLEEVE

How do I stop losing weight? "funny"

Mar 29, 2011

I am 5'9 and used to weigh 264lbs, I had a goal weight of 170.  I am 11 months out from surgery and I now weigh 147lbs. I have gone from size 22 to a size 8....from size 3x to med/small.  I want to stop losing NOW. I have lost my curves & butt. I look like a boy. People say eat more, but I can't. I try snacking but that seems to make me lose more. I added 2 protein shakes a day. What else should I do? I eat rice, potatoes, gravy, and most things that we have been told are bad and I still can't stop losing. Does anyone have any ideas? HELP

Hello friends

Jan 26, 2011

Hey Guys

Sorry that it has been so long since I last posted. I have been very busy enjoying my new life. I am 7 1/2 months out for surgery and have lost approx 105 pounds. I have gone from wearing a size 22 to wearing a size 8.....WHAT, did I say size 8?  I have never worn an 8 in my entire life. I am sooooo happy. My husband is acting like he has a brand new wife. Everywhere we go he is introducing me, even to people we already know. I never knew that it mattered to him if I was heavy or not.

I can walk up and down stairs without feeling like I'm gonna pass out. I sleep better and don't snore anymore. I am totally off all medication. I have been released with well wishes from my Neuro Doctor. I was on the floor last week with my 9 month old grandbaby playing with his blocks. it made me wanna cry because I was never able to get on and off the floor before without much assistance. My sex life is "OFF THE CHAIN." I can do stuff that I used to do when i was 20 years old. WOW, WOW, WOW..........

I wish I had done this for myself 10 years ago, but thats OK. I plan on making up for lost time. If you are reading this and considering having a weight loss surgery, I want to tell you that it is the best thing that has ever happened to me(besides my family). I would do it again tomorrow if I had to.

Bye Bye Lane Bryant.......

Nov 27, 2010

OK, as of today I have lost 94lbs and I'm wearing size 10 pants and medium tops...YEA.....I cut up my Lane Bryant credit card and threw it away. I have no plans on going backwards and I can't wear anything in that store anymore. I will miss my Real Women Dollars...LOL

I feel great knowing that I can now shop at any store and find something in my size. I am not ashamed to go shopping anymore. I love my new life, I love my sleeve....

Help

Nov 04, 2010

Ok People, as of today I am only 10 pounds away from my goal weight of 170........I weighed in this morning at 180 and I am only 4 1/2 months out. Am I gonna be able to stop this weight loss or am I gonna lose more. People are already asking me if I smoke crack. My Mama says that I need to stop. I try to explain that I am eating as much as I can. I feel healthy but don't wanna get too thin. I have gone from size 22 to a 12 in this short period of time. I am 5'9 and I'm starting to look a little funny. HELP

ARE YOU FOR REAL "MAN"

Oct 10, 2010

OK, what is really going on? I have lost approx. 73lbs and 4 dress sizes. I have gone from wearing a size 22 to a 14, and I love the way I look. My husband on the other hand will not over his opinion or a compliment to save his life.  Everywhere we go people are saying "Wow, you look great." My husband just looks down and won't say anything. I mentioned to him that maybe he could acknowledge how I look and he got mad. He was screaming. "aren't you getting enough compliments from others, stop bothering me."
I tried to explain that I don't care about what others think, I care about what he thinks......Instead of saying that I look good and that he loves me, he was screaming at the top of his lungs to get away from him.

My Mom says that my husbad is jealous of all the attention that I get now. Wow, how stupid is that. I wanted to look nice so he would be proud to have me on his arm and now he's pushing me away.

Has anybody else had this situation? HELP
