Life update...

Dec 15, 2010

Well, its the middle of December and I figured it was time to update you. It's hard to believe how many changes I have made in the last month. Umm...where to begin. Well, I decided it was time to go out and show off my new body that I have worked so hard for in the last year and half or so. I went to a birthday bash and met a great guy...thus became friends. That gave me the encouragement to meet others, I joined an online dating site not really for dating but to meet people and see how things go. I mean after all I have not been single in a really long time. I also began dressing myself in better undergarments...I now feel sexier, and more confident. I finished up my class today and took my state board test for my license and I passed! So now I have a new career to fall back on. I have to say that my confidence is amazing and I feel so proud to be achieving all the goals that I have set when I first began my journey. I would have never thought that it would happen but it is slowly. I also have been trying to make male friends but haven't had much luck there because most want just sex. I am not about that especially since I have a 2yr old. I have met 1 or 2 nice guys but I am not sure where that's headed since they have multiple female friends. I am tying not to let myself get hurt so that I do not sabbotage myself with food. Overall, the last month 1/2 has been great! I have dealt with major issues from my ex who is still trying to control me and still continues to talk down to me and verbally abuse me. I have tried to put boundries in place but it's harder to enforce them with such a manipulative man. I have been mainly taking care of myself and taking it day by day.

I am so thrilled to have passed my exam today and it feels so good to have a new career to fall back on. The best part is that I did it all myself...I owe no one any credit other than me! It feels fabulous!

I could not have been so successful without my surgery. I have never been happier.

Hugs to you all,
susan
