Oy Vey!

Mar 21, 2010

I guess I could look up what that means....but I don't feel like, however I feel like saying that.
Its Monday need I say more?

How has everyone been....I can totally see how people stop posting on here....not on purpose, but clearly because life gets busy after this surgery.

Some of my WOW moments:

I can fit sz 22 jeans....from Old Navy at that! I can't tell you folks how crazy that seems to me. I haven't fit anything sz 22, in I can't remember, and granted, i could have been buying clothes from Old Navy all along, but I haven't been so the fact that they were from there was another thing.

My undies are getting smaller, and my oldies are like hula hoops...loving that :0)

EVERYONE is noticing that I'm losing weight. That's big...to me anyway, because around week 3 you couldn't tell me that I wasn't going to be fat forever, that the RNY didn't like me, and my doctor was conspiring against me....take note folks....there is a such thing as Head Hunger....it'll kill you dead if you don't kill it first!!!!
My brother in law made a comment on Saturday that I was looking smaller, and was I trying to get into a bikini for the beach this summer....heavens no....at least not for anyone to see.

Thats another thing...I fear me losing weight, and my mind catching up is going to be the difficult part to this surgery.

I met my husband in August 2001. When I met him, I dressed up alot, because well, I was DIVA then (as now), and knew I was entirely too cute to be going to work looking busted, not knowing what man would try to talk to me on my way there, lol. So I didn't own jeans and pretty much never wore dresses. He bought me jeans, and eventually brought me a slew of dresses...he always buys my dresses, he has awesome taste, and if he likes it he buys it, unlike me, if I like it I look for a coupon, and if I don't get that then I wait patiently for a sale. So as my fat deposits slowly evaporate, I can not fit many of my beloved dresses or clothing. This is where the sadness comes in and the low playing of the violins commence. Part of me doesn't want to part with my clothing....these things have been like security blankets for me. I can tell you how each one made me feel pretty, sexy, fat, delicious (tee hee), or whatever. Right now I can't wrap my head around giving them away to anyone, but then there is part of me that feels like if I keep them, I'm just setting my self up to wear them again....that I don't want. I'm hoping in time, when I find even cuter stuff in cuter, smaller sizes, this feeling will pass; but right now I allow them to take up room in my closet...If they have ties, I just tie them tighter....

Oh, last WOW moment - totally thrift shopping the other day ( I swear its therapeutic to me), I found a Michael Kors dress for $20! I take that back, a Michael Kors dress that I could fit!!!! for $20.  I didn't buy it though, lol. I know your probably wondering why, and it was because it was $20! Hell I was in a thrift shop....they needed to be more "thrifty" on that price! My SIL said I should have gotten it, because it was probably $200-300, and she's right, it probably was....I just though it was cute I could fit it.

I was going to add something else, but totally forgot.......until next time

Just remembered I just started reading Twilight....yeah I saw the movie, and that intrigued me to read the book....Edward is sooo delicious, lol. OMG. I'm always sooo late on stuff. Everyones listening to a good CD, I listen to it 2 years later and fall in love...same thing with this movie and book. I started reading the book on Saturday and I'm half finished...its pretty good, it really feels in the blanks of the movie, so if you haven't read it, pick it up! ( I know I sound like one of those kids from Reading Rainbow)
