I'm a fan of REDHEADS, but have been a faithful blonde for many years also. I have been every shade of color except for black and I enjoy changing my hair as much as I much as I can - I always do something different.

For now - I say go totally blonde - it will be fun for awhile - then you need to try being a redhead - I change the color of my hair depending on what's going on in my life. I really find people react differently to me depending on my hair color - or maybe thats just what I think - its an amazing experience - you should try it! Permanent haircolor is still NEVER permanent.

One advice about going RED - reds fade awful quickly and require more maintenence to keep it bright and pretty, but also being blonde you have to keep up on your roots - nothing I hate more (and I'm guilty of it too) is having dark roots with blonde hair. I''m not talking just a little root showing - talking like the skanks that have 3 inches of black roots with platiunum blonde hair - gross! Only once did I ever let my hair get that bad and I saw a pic - that was enough! When I'm blonde I keep up on that shit now! I looked soooo white trashy - its still a sad pic!

I'm home sick and now I'm crying... you girls always make me cry :) Thank you. And I give Sachi and Voo hundreds of kisses every day. Thank you!

Chris and I went blonde together, but I hated his and now his salt-n-pepper is growing back plus he's wearing glasses - I think he's HOT too! Why do you think I put up with him? He's an irresistable 9 year old!

Sorry, no red for me. It washes out in 2 weeks and looks like rusty pink. I was red for many years, but my old lady hair turned to horse hair that refuses to hold pigment. I've challenged many hairstylists who swear they can make me red, but it never lasts. Phooey.

I love the flip, I love the color, and I love your outfit. You look terrific and healthy and glowing. I'm jealous that you're so damn tall. Oh, and that you have a hot husband.

You look fantastic.

I think you are your worst critic. Your hair looked great and you didnt look like you gained any weight. Give yourself a break. You're georgeous!

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      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
