I Lost ******* in 2013



Recommended Posts

Indigo?! Where'd you get those red boots from?! I want some!

:D

Revs, think you'd suit them ;-) .... got them online and they are gorgeous. Was trying to recreate a Debbie Harry look from many years ago, lol x

Oooh, do they do size 9's/43's? Sadly, one of the many features I inherited from the Irish side - massive boats masquerading as feet :blink:

And there ain't nothin' wrong with a bit of Debbie Harry. She is smokin'. I'm trying to channel my inner 'Cyndie Lauper' at the moment...

Or is it more accurately, Cruella De'ville :blink:

YOU ARE KIDDING ME?! Please tell me they're like bright red? Like Fire-engine red? And suede. And with high heels?.. Oh my god, where did you get them from?!! TELL MEEEEEEE!!! :blink:

I have a new bright, fire-engine red dress that DEMAND a pair of boots to match. I was going to wear the dress next time I go out for dinner with my lovely new friends. :D

Although, I was also giving consideration to hiring a mobility scooter to stop myself from falling over and breaking an ankle again. Because, you know, drink and heels don't mix.... :wacko:

I have two pairs - one red suede with a moderately high heel and fire engine red shiny, high heel wicked girl boots. Just google red high heeled boots and step back in amazement...

Am sure your new friends will love them, although I think you will be positively Amazonian by the time you add 6 inch heels....

And yes, spiky heels and the devil's juice do not mix well... you can really do yourself a mischief. Whether you feel it at the time or not depends on how much you have had to drink :-)))))))

Ps a mobility scooter ??? I can just see you, streamers flying out of the handles, ringing the bell, little basket on the front for the Guinness.....

I'll be like the old dear off of 'Benidorm'.. Just with a little less green eye-shadow and frosted pink lipstick!

I have been looking for size 43 fire-engine red suede boots for the longest time.. I couldn't find any that matched the dress. Which shop did you go to online?

Well, seeing as my new chums all appear to be a wee bit vertically challenged in comparison; maybe I should get some flats? Although in saying that, I can't walk in ballet pumps either.

I think I just have to face it. I am a hobbit. :blink:

I've lost 69 lbs and at Christmas, my daughter cried after hugging me and realizing she could put her arms around me! It's those little moments that have been especially precious.

You big losers are such an inspiration. Here's to a successful, enjoyable and blessed 2014!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
