Going for Broke on the Laugh Track

My 25-year-old niece just called to see how I'm doing. She tells me she expects to see me in a bathing suit this summer. Laughed so hard I almost peed my pants. Really - when you weight 283 at your highest, regardless of how much weight I lose, the end product is a saggy Sharpei in a swimsuit. I may be healthy at the end of this, but I ain't going to be a looker.

Amen Sister....I have had plenty of pep talks with myself about this same conversation. I have been overweight all my life...all of it. I am pretty sure my skin gave up a long time ago....so in no way shape or form do I expect to ever...ever have abs of steal or the booty of a 20yr old.

I guess there are some advantages to not losing weight - at least the fat kept everything taut!
