I had my Halloween party this past weekend... and other than having 4-6in of snow, broken tree limbs, downed wires, and my tent completely caving in from the weight of the water/snow, it was awesome, and i still managed to have 40 people show up...lol Since the day after my party last year, I knew what i was going to be. I was completely disgusted and sickened when seeing my pictures from last years party that i finally said ENOUGH and started researching AGAIN weight loss surgery...but i knew that if i was going to pull off what i wanted to be this year, I needed to lose alot of weight. (just an FYI, I didn't do the surgery for the Halloween party even though a few friends of mine and myself joke about it, I did it for my health, my daughter, and to live life better...the Halloween party was definitely my tipping scale). So Last year, when i saw the pictures of my fiance and I being Mario and Luigi, I almost puked and was sickened by how big I was... Of course Mario is a fat Italian guy, but i pulled the part off way too good..and that's what sickened me... This year, I was Jessica Rabbit, and fiance was Roger rabbit...We looked fantastic.. I spent the last few weeks sewing and creating our costumes.. I kept my mind focused on this party, and Halloween so i could take a break from the overwhelming sadness of my sister dying that I didn't realize how much i outdid myself with these costumes. Not only were the costumes fantastic, but i wore 5 in red hott "f*ck me" heels that I think since i made it through the whole night wearing them, i now can check off my goal of wearing hott sexy heels... Every where i went, i heard people talking about how fantastic and hott i looked... i didn't know whether to flirt, or to yell "You didn't even notice me 100lbs ago." LOL but of course, i flirted, and I worked that costume like i was the hand drawn sexy cartoon...and of course i was saying all night "I'm not bad...I'm just drawn that way." LOL

So the first picture is my before (last year's) Halloween party as Mario and Luigi...I'm the fat one in red (of course)...ewww

And Now 101.6lbs down..(get ready!) Here is Me as Jessica Rabbit and roger Rabbit(my fiance)

And then this is my daughter and I dressed as Pirates for trick or treating...

lol...I was quoting that all night long...Everyone is complimenting the hair color too.. I always go for a dark brownish red, but this color was hott...Sad to say my hair is falling out..and thinning, and its upsetting, but i am going to dye my hair this color...
