Had a wonderful evening with my TWAW girls. This group has been such an inspiration. The confidence that i have now knowing i can defend myself, whether it's physical or with a weapon is empowering. Go look them up https://thewellarmedwoman.com/

Tomorrow will be three weeks since my band removal. So far i've managed to maintain my weight and even went down a pound or two. So far so good.
This weekend is a big one.... I'm flying to Ga to meet Tim's family. I was supposed to go the weekend of the 24th... but the emergency band removal killed that. So we are going for Easter. i'm a bit nervous.... apparently his mom likes none of her daughter in laws and never liked any of Tim's gf's or his wife of 21 years.....
So ya'll pray for me... hehe
i'll update on Monday
have a Happy Easter Everyone

I had a hard time for the last year or so (personal, no band) and went form 143 to 162...... and i said..... O Hell no. Im not going to be one of "those" people who gain the weight back...... Since Mid August i have managed to come back down to 145...... WLS... i lost my attitude for a long time but found it again..... Husband hates it.... but F him
-
I'm one of "'those' people'." Long, long before banding I truly felt cocky and dangerous, having lost weight on my own. Regained and continued gaining for the most part ever since. That c&d feeling, the only time in my life, was a thrill. I never knew that it was possible to feel so confident and ready-for-anything. You bathe in it and keep it going, okay? P.S. Husbands can be dopey.

So i had another date last night... Different man. It was great, his wife passed a year ago and i was his first "real" date. He was so nervous he rambled. Super nice and a great smile great shape. Retired Army Lieutenant

Haven't been here for a while.. So let me catch you all up. As you all know I lost my band in March. Still hanging around 150... but I do need to get to the gym. Still in the 4-6 size jeans...
I quit my job in Houma and moved to Madison, Ms. Wasn't expecting to get a job so quick. Went on Three interviews on a Friday and got Three job offers. So I took the best one for me.

Today is a great day.... Live, Love, Learn.....

i got so depressed last night.... As some of you know i got divorced at the beginning of the year. I'm now in the process of cleaning out my house to sell .... I was going through the filing cabinet. Files of house stuff like appliances, ac, insurances... etc.... then i got to the files of crap that my ex bought for himself... boats, all the **** that goes with it... troll motors, 150-200$ reals.. 100 rods... hundreds on fishing tackle.. Stereo systems for every veh HE owned.. (not my car), guns, camera's..$3000-6000 ... Lens, just one of which was $8000... I could go on and on.... but what really got to me, was in that entire file cabinet... I had 1 sheet of paper... not even a file... one sheet... my wedding ring that he bought for 1900 bucks.... that was it... it's all i had to show for 26 years of marriage. All I could do was sit and cry.or 26 years of marriage.

After 26 years of marriage you have more to show for it than you think. You gained a new lease on life. You lost your insecurities and gained your confidence. You gained a lifestyle you may have never thought you would have 26 years ago. You inspire people to continue going because your progress was so real and raw that people hope to gain the strength and knowledge that you have.
Most importantly, you gained yourself back. I think that is worth more than the $1,900 ring, the $3,000 cameras and the boats. You are worth more than all the receipts in the filing cabinet combined.

Yes.... Bayougirl... managed to fall into the bayou.... Yes you all are allowed to laugh.

Wednesday the 28th started out like any other day. Went to work got off at 5, went to go clean a hunting camp (because im financially challenged and needed the money). Did my thing and cleaned till 10:30pm. This camp is no "ordinary" hunting camp... it has 8 bedrooms and 4.5 baths. the only way to get to it is via boat... so i take a 10 min ride there and back. I also do the laundry at my home, so i was carrying one of the tots to the boat to go home. Walked to the dock, placed the tote on the dock, placed foot on the boat to get in.... Foot slips from under me and i end up taking a swim along with my phone... I managed to swim back to the dock and pulled myself out of the bayou. I kept seeing Betty White and her damn alligators in my mind. Thank God i still don't weight 230#, i would have never been able to do that. But i did and managed to bruise every limb of my body (and ego) and pulled a muscle in my right boob...(duct tape dub). It's been over a week and im just starting to feel better. NOTE TO SELF: never go to the dock alone again

My son just came home this afternoon from a week in Orlando. He was sporting shorts, swimming in an outdoor pool and loving life outside. Yup....he's back at home now and it's pouring down rain and colder than a well diggers arse. We are forecasted for snow in the morning. It's all good, though......I have plenty of coffee and a spread ready to cook in the morning when he starts to get woken up. Bring the snow.....all 1/2" of accumulation that we are likely to get, lol.
Bayougirl.....ya just gotta find a way to keep warm and ride it out. That's all there is to it.

Big move yesterday...... went hire the "barracuda" of attorneys. Just the mention of her name in our town makes husbands shake with fear......When i told my husband.... he flipped his lid. Now he wants to give me what ever i want. Hummmmmm

Hello everyone.... What a ruff week it has been. What started with a bug... Ended Thursday with my BEST friend leaving me. Tina (my band)... is gone. After 8 years 4 months and 13 days.... It was a great journey for sure.
The slip was pretty bad.... i was less than 24 hours from a perforated stomach. But i feel much better. The pain i was in was the most unbearable pain i have ever felt..... and everyone who knows me here, know how much of a high tolerance i have for pain.
So, it's up to me now.... i must continue on my journey with only the knowledge i have gained over the years and pray that i can do it alone.
But, even though i don't have my band anymore... i will still come here, because you all are my friends and i treasure your support.
xoxo
Chris

ShelterDog.... it was sooooo good. The service was great We had these Oysters sliders (i skipped the bun) i was Leary of because it had Picked watermelon rine... but OMG... Amazing. Each had the beef filet... and the roasted Brussels sprouts...

Heaven in your mouth. And although this is mostly a seafood rest. i have to say the beef filet... the best i have EVER eaten... Even better than Besh Steak House.

These past few weeks have been a roller coaster... So in 18 day (march 10) i will be divorced. In the mean time i, as you all know, have been dating. And yes there have been many, i wanted to play the field for a while. Few significant people: Blaine, he was a guy i dated 30+ years ago, we reconnected, but he is not "available" so that's out of the picture. Then there is Danny, he and i have been friends for about 30 years also, we never dated, but i did date his BF for a short while. And Tim... Wow.... Tim and i have been dating for 4 months and i have to say, i thought men like him were existent. You know the kind, the ones that open all doors, pulls out your chair, helps with you jacket, holds your had, kisses you so passionately that your toes curl. ahhhhh. Here lies the the problem... Danny. Danny and Tim are both head over hills in love with me. Before Tim came along i spent most of my time with danny. But, danny played it cool... pretended like we were just friends with benefits. Now that he knows about Tim..... omg, the emotions have come out... I hate hurting his feelings... but with Tim is where i want to be. I told him this last night again... and he started to cry. A 62 y/o man crying..... This is all so crazy...... So at the end of March im going to meet Tim's family in GA. I'm very excited about this. I just simply just hate hurting peoples feelings..... That's all Rant over...

It's Best to pull the Band-aid off quickly!!! The longer it would have lasted with Danny the more Devastated he would have been. If Tim is where your heart is then it could never work with Danny anyways and in the end you are doing him a favor by setting him free to find someone else that will eventually Love him unconditionally. Good for you about doing some exploring because how else would you know what you like if you don"t try a few flavors.
