Progress Pic from Halloween Share yours?



Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

I'm from LA and sinceeee the Dodgers are in the world series, I wanted to support my team but still dress up for Halloween...

I decided to rock some boy shorts. I WOULD HAVE NEVER worn these before surgery. I was so insecure and in hiding. I developed social anxiety and never wanted to go anywhere or do anything. But I've lost 42 lbs and feeling confident. Yes, I have stretch marks, cellulite and fat, but why does that mean I should hide myself or not get to wear what "skinny" women wear?

So I put on booty shorts and didn't care who looked, who judged, I WAS HAPPY. 185 lbs and I am loving myself. oh and GOOOOO DODGERSSSSSS!

FEEL FREE TO SHARE YOUR HALLOWEEN PICS TOO!

Thank goodness we don't wear burkas. Still cracks me up that the professional female golfers are told to cover up. I think we better start complaining about all the men wearing tight pants playing football.

On second thought, I would never complain about men in tight clothing...I like the eye candy.

Mine is a little different. I’ve actually put weight on in the last year, I think about 10 lbs? Not sure but I’ve gained weight because I’ve eaten more and the weight gain has really improved my appearance and health. I didn’t try to gain weight by stuffing myself or anything I just have allowed my body to weight whatever it wants to. I stoped trying to control it.

Same for me. On April 1st of this year I weighed 102. I just had my 3 year surgiversary on November 4th and weighed 112. I typically weigh about 115 most days now, and I look much better with those extra pounds. PhotoGrid_1510501014343.jpg

Wow! I don’t meet too many people struggling with this as I do. Good for you! Yes you look way better I agree.

For me it’s really a challenge to keep weight on, both mentally and physically to eat enough. I was 114 at my lowest and looked really sickly. I definitely don’t want to ever weight that little again!

You look great. What was your start weight?

It was a big challenge for the first couple of years. On April 1st I quit smoking and I started receiving steroid injections in my neck. Since then, no problem gaining. I don't have any problem eating. I love to eat. I just get frustrated that it's so little then starving again in an hour. I hope your eating gets better for you. I know it's exhausting both mentally and physically.

We don't run into too many people like us, and people aren't always too friendly about it either. I've had some pretty nasty comments thrown my way. It's nice to meet someone else that knows the what it's like.

Looking good.
Doesn’t look like your breasts have been affected much. My wife’s titties are all but gone.

      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!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
