Today my therapist told me I have the body of a 14 year old boy.

Wasn't very nice of her.

You should have told her "How do you know what I have buried in my backyard?"

That would have messed with her head!:)

I bet she meant it as a compliment. Waifish

No secret I am not crazy about these charts because most of us probably want to think of ourselves as hour glass but the underlying bone structure doesn't support it..just another reason to find flaw. I don't feel that way anymore as I embrace my God given attributes but I didn't start out thinking that way.

The advantage of self awareness however is the art of creative dressing. I am the inverted triangle, athletic build but it is readily disguised. The first time I was aware I was at a very formal work related cocktail event. My colleagues all told me I looked "va-voom" so to speak. Then a friend took me aside told me she had tried the same dress I bought at Macy's but it made her have a "huge ass" whereas on me it was very figure flattering because it gave me that hourglass shape. Little light bulbs went off in my head and since then I have not been afraid of clothes that make the butt look big. I have been complimented many times on my figure even though I am bigger than I wish I were. I mean that I don't get petite - when I lose more weight I just look bony, my butt gets tiny but my shoulders/chest never get that small, just bony. It was a little hard to get over the idea that I will always be bigger than my skinny friends due to our basic builds being so different but I have embraced it and dress for my figure.

1) No wonder woman have so many body issues.

2) No, not "what I have buried" should be "who you have buried"

According to folktales and legends, if a person rubs Buddha's belly, it brings good luck, wealth and prosperity. We all need to rub a Buddha belly.

He can speak for himself, but I do think he would prefer you wait until the hernia is healed

In my mind I am essential nothingness (but I am a guy, so I have that going for me), but I'm probably in this plain of reality a Bart.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
