A Strange Thing Happened When I Lost Weight

Jun 04, 2010

Before I started to loose weight I didn’t care how I looked and I had a screw it attitude when it came to how others viewed me. Now even though I still don’t see the weight changes in myself that others see and comment on I find myself doing strange things. I stopped biting my nails and even got my first manicure, it was a cheesy pink color. When I go shopping now I don’t head straight for the baggy t-shirts, now I own shirts that fit and can’t be confused with my brothers. Believe it or not but I even own skirts now, I would never have considered owning them in the past. I still refuse to wear make-up, I don’t see the point but I’m considering getting my ears pierced. I have tank tops I wear around the house but I still think my arms are to fat to wear in public but hey it’s progress, at least for me. Sometimes I feel sad that it took me till 30 to take pride in myself but then I try to remember it’s better late then never I just hope that someday when I look in the mirror I see the difference in myself that others see.

So Proud

Jun 04, 2010

Ok so I know this section shound be about me and my successes and failures but instead I'm gonna use it to tell my Mamma how proud I am that even though the process was long and there were lots of disappointment she stuck with it and finally got her band put in on May 24, 2010. So to you Mamma all I can say is I am very proud and so thrilled that you'll be able to come out and do the stupid stuff we love to do and that I'm glad I no longer have to worry about your weight holding you back or hurting your health. Just remember if we work as a team no matter how hard or frustrating it gets we got it covered!
