BAM!!

IM PRAYING FOR U!!!! But your story is not ending...you have quite a ways to go!! God Bless You!

this reminds me of my failed attempt at 2 shakes and a meal a day.

After a week I was crying "i miss chewing during the day" and I am scared of the post-op diet...

I keep telling my husband, Yoli the b***h will be here visiting for a few days I will understand if you want to stay at your brothers house. I hope he can just deal tho...hes a big man however he eats like a little bird unless he is starving from not eating through out the day...he said he is going to try to do the post-op thing with me but with higher intake...lets see how that works.

Im dancing with you!!!i cant wait to be under 200 i havent seen a 1 starting number on the scale for about 7 years now!

GO LYRA...

YESSSS!!!!!

This is exactly what one of my blogs was about, to tell or not to tell, WHY CANT THIS BE WORN ON OUR SLEEVE...y a secret? EFF THAT...

Im doing it for me and just because you "wouldnt" then you cant judge. Ive had people say o i wouldnt do that and look at me crooked face and then i give them some schooling about it and all of a sudden they are signing up for the seminar...GTFOH!!

I love this blog!

Do you have an Alfred Angelo store close to you...the plus size collection is amazing. I had to go to 5 davids bridals to find my dress. They all have different stuff in stock and I waited to last minute too.

KEEP WRITING...Im reading for sure!

BTW the first psych i called told me to pay $150 and give me my basic info and to just pick up my paperwork saturday morning...without seeing him or ever meeting him...I was look whoa this is some crooked ****! But maybe your husband needs one of those lol.

HAHA! you went to a psychiatrist? I was careful to choose a psychologist for that very reason. I wanted someone more personable like a social worker...THAT SUCKS FOR YOUR HUSBAND what now?

Im hoping my husband will be able to go in december, im adding him to my insurance in july since we just got married.

Gracias!!

THOSE MFers...Im focused on me right now...get on board or jump off at the next stop!!

My eval was like 20 minutes..in a big BIG BIG historic creepy house with CATS!! I was thinking o man this house is so gorgeous...but smells and thought about facebooking the address if no one heard from me after...weird! and the psychologist was like a 4 foot nothing little man with white hair--all i could think in my head was gosh this is some creepy ****!!

I love to cook!! I rather cook it all and put the spread out and usually dont eat--I am always so full after cooking, even when not picking through it...

That was a great spread...im coming out west to eat before this surgery LOL

Im wearing it on my sleeve...but it really is about personality!

People whisper regardless of what any of us do. I have a really good girlfriend who lost 200 PLUS LBS on her own (over 3.5 yrs) and people talk s&(?* all the time about her.

Im not worried about my work people...like i said they all already know. They knew when I went to the seminar--I went in like hey Im going to this..yal wanna come?

see my comment before this. I dont think it is something to feel shame about...Im more ashamed of my lack of motivation to get up and look pretty coming to the office, and I come in with leggings and a messy ponytail all the time.

Time for me to wear HIGH HEALS again and stop hiding behind the scenes especially at my own events, I wont even sign my name to my amazing projects because I dont want to show face--that is SHAMEFUL.

My office staff knows Im having surgery...

1. because we are extremely tight knit, I babysit people's children for whole weekends, they were at my wedding, etc.

2. because we are all overweight, and we complain and do WW and fail. There are some here who need to feel it is ok to go have SURGERY--it is necessary for some, I AM ONE and just opening up and saying Im going to the seminar, has had everyone doing their research. They can all make their own decision. We are all women here and we struggle together. Im SURE that if insurance covered tummy tucks a few people here would have it done in a blink of an eye!

To EACH her OWN

and 2 people are going to seminars to learn about it!and Im all about being informed!

I was motivated to do it by someone who i used to work with who had it done.

My work family is not a concern...actually its my husbands family who is! haha! They are all about body images and weight loss (yet most should be asking to workout with me instead of commenting) I already told my husband...U ZIP IT MISTER...no one is to know on your side! and my family doesnt know outside of my parents and sisters.

I just dont want the crap answers of oh you can lose that if you eat right and exercise...but are the same people who say "Why dont you want to eat" when they are trying to serve me a man size plate of plantains and fried chicken. Same people who go to Dominican Republic for a routine Lipo and breast lift but look down their nose at the mention of getting WLS.

My thing is why cant i wear this decision proudly as a badge of courage for taking my problem by the nuts!?

Why do we need to be so secretive?

I see this as my fertility treatment, I need to do this to move forward. I need to do this for me emotionally as well.

Do we look down at the person who gets a pace maker for their heart? This is my pacemaker...I need to do this to LIVE my life.

BTW...SHAPESHIFTER always has the most awesome responses to blogs I read...gracias!

I wrote about this today!

I dont know how I feel...I think its easier for me to tell people and have the WHATEVER attitude. But I dont want my husbands family to know...THEY ARE SOOOOOO CRITICAL and they all have an opinion! But they are also the people who keep asking when we are going to have a baby, even after knowing we have a problem in that area and it's very sensitive!

If you know that it is what you want and arent going to let negative people sway you then SPEAK FREELY!

Although no ones opinion is going to sway me not to do it, I really dont want to be nasty with anyone and I can feel that coming on.

YAY!!!! Are you scared?

OMG thank you for this post!!!

I am a young bride and have been with my husband for 10 yrs. When we were teenagers and younger 20s the sex life was AMAZING...and this weight has really effed that up for us...

I cant wait to get my libido back in full swing!

YOU GO GIRL!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH...I have had PCOS since 15 when the weight started piling up in high school. i went for a size 2 to a size 9 in less than a year and it kept climbing. 80 lbs in less than 2 yrs and stayed stable from there with the 30 lb up and down yo yo.

It is just recently that I decided enough is enough and someone is going to give me answers on what is up.

SICK OF THE HAIR on my FACE and just being FAT a really great dr took 2 hrs of her day (im sure other patients werent happy) and really went through everything with me, ultrasounds and all. Confirmed everything and since then I have been in the battle to beat this problem!

Thanks for the support!
