And the Size 12's are back in rotation!

Apr 11, 2008

WOOHOOO!!!!! When I put on those pants Wednesday and I could breathe in them and sit down without fear they would pop a sista wanted to jump up and down and click her heels!!! My weight is back under control.  My "guns" are back in my arms....LOL  My booty still giggles, but its back to the firm giggle...LOL I'm so damn silly sometimes, but really I am glad that I took control and my body and weight are back to the way that I was comfortable.  YAH! I am having bacon and eggs for breakfast, well I am gonna try to have that.  My eating has been really funny lately ain't had much of an appetite for the past week.  Anywho, off to the gym!

I find it truly amazing that this shit is STILL going!  Obviously if it is still on your mind then I must have said something that hit home.  There is no nice way to put this. SHUT THE FUCK UP about it already! DAMN! I mean seriously.  Everything I said was justified to ME! This ain't about YOU! I ain't slept with you or had intimate interactions with you.  I was venting my frustrations.  If you don't like it TOUGH SHIT! Damn! Enough is a fucking 'nuff already!

Hypocrites

Apr 09, 2008

I find it truly amazing that people are still carrying on this bullshit! 

"Some people need to be single."  
"Some of us need a lot of prayer"
  

First of all don't pray for me, pray for your damnselves, better yet don't use prayer and me in the same sentence.  It's amazing all these "married folk" hollerin' their trials and tribulations in marriage, but no one on BAF is in a position to talk about anyone, married or not.  I am being attacked because I am passionate about my stance and won't back down.  It's amazing to me another member can bash fat people and get praised for speaking her mind and because I express my digust for anything with a dick between their legs I am angry and bitter.  In the words of Robert De'niro in Casino after he was denied his gaming license, 

"You have a past. I have a past. My past is no worse than yours. But you guys think you have the right to pass judgment! Fuckin' hypocrites

Gotta Love It!

Apr 08, 2008

You just gotta love people who think based on comments on a message board they know you.  I still stand behind my opinion that men ain't schitt.  Whatever has turned my stomach to a man is my business and my perogative.  Call it bitter, angry, hateful, whatever ask me if I give a fuck?!  I have been thru too much bullshit with men be it my family and/or people I have been romantically involved with.  I call an ace an ace and a spade a spade.  I don't and won't sugar coat shit anymore.  I did that for too many years because I was afraid I wouldn't be accepted.  I have come to terms with I won't be accepted and that's fine, but I am not going to sugar my disgust any more in my life because its an unpopular opinion.  

And for the record, yes I do NOT believe in god anymore, if you have a problem with that don't speak to me.

Attack of the killer brownie!

Mar 27, 2008

Ok, well, since my period started and I had been craving like motha all week.  On my lunch break yesterday I decided to venture off to 7-11 and with my crazy arse I got one of those chocolate walnut brownies I use to devour before I had surgery.  It's been over 2 years since I ate one of those things, but yesterday was a day that an oatmeal raisin cookie just wouldn't do.  Well about thirty minutes later I was bowing to the porcelain God.  And about 20 minutes after that I was bowing to the porcelain God again! Lesson learned!  2+ years out and the H. B. I. C. makes her reign known....LOL  Yeah, I will be in the gym tonight like nobody's business!


Ebony v. Scale

Mar 04, 2008

Well, I finally got the guts to do it and I am proud to say that I have lost 11.5lbs! I am stunned, excited, in shock all at the same time.  Well, I am very glad that the scale is moving in the RIGHT direction now.  I want to lose 14 more lbs and I will have reached my personal goal!  After that goal is achieved I will worry about more later.  Right now I am celebrating this victory b/c it wasn't easy, but I have been DETERMINED not to let my weight get out of control ever again and this is proof to me that no matter how far out you are if you take care of the pouch, the pouch will take care of you!

My brown slacks!!

Feb 28, 2008

I bought these slacks from the misses department in Kohls down in Florida last April, LOVE them! Then with my life being the complete disaster it was last year, it came a time in my life, this pants wouldn't come all the way up!  You want to talk about a disappointment and a wake up call.  So since I decided to get back on track for the new year, about two weeks ago I reached in to the closet and said what the hell! And what the hell is right!! My brown slacks are back in rotation!!! Even with leg warmers underneath them like I do today, b/c Chicago is so damn cold, they fit just fine! PHEW!!! Makes me appreciate my inner thighs hurting from the gym last night!! I tell you I haven't been on the scale recently, b/c Lord knows that scale can make you cry when your clothes are getting loose and the scale ain't moving.  March 6th I am gonna take the plunge and get on the scale again!! What the past month and a half has taught me is:

1.  I haven't stretched my pouch and its the H. B. I. C. (Head Bitch in Charge) of me!  I still dump! I still can barely eat!  And when you follow the rules of the pouch you can lose weight, even two years out!

2.  Exercise is key!! With me working two jobs right now I make the MOST of the two - three nights I don't work at my other job, putting in at least an 1 of cardio.  I try to stay at least 2 hrs I have even stayed 3 hrs sometimes.  I am serious about this!

3.  Vitamins! like I said yesterday! This is NOT OPTIONAL! stay on your vitamins! My normal regime is:
2 prenatel multis
1 mL B-complex liquid
4 calcium citrates
1 or 2 65mg Iron 

***consult with your own Doctor as for what is best for YOU!

4.  Eating/drinking in moderation!  Nobody likes to feel deprived.  It's one thing to have a cocktail, its one thing to drink a 1.75L bottle of Vodka yourself.  Which Lord knows during my lowest times in my life I could go thru one of those by myself in a day in a half. And that my friends will put weight on your QUICKLY!!!! Minimizing the simple carbs will definitely help as well.  

These are just things I have "relearned" in the past two months that I hope can help someone out there struggling with a regain!  Don't give up!!! I have no intentions on being 337lbs again! If you feel you have lost control. Take a step back and REALLY evaluate yourself and make the change today for YOU!!!

VITAMINS VITAMINS VITAMINS

Feb 26, 2008

I CANNOT stress how important this is!  Since surgery I became anemic and while I knew I was only taking a multi (pre natel and no I am not preggers) it wasn't enough, especially now that I am working two jobs and still working out heavily.  Yeah I took my butt over to CVS and got me some iron and B-complex sublingual!! In a matter of days I felt a difference in my body and I am not so tired and sluggish by mid afternoon anymore.  So I encourage EVERYONE! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TAKE YOUR VITAMINS DAILY! IT'S NOT OPTIONAL!!


2008. Moving Forward!

Feb 26, 2008

So I am still on my exercise and proper eating game!  Which, if your pre op, let me tell you, when you get further out is a struggle, but you gotta do what you gotta do to stay in check!  PMS was making me so damn miserable last week I stayed home Friday I was in so much pain! Let me tell you, I am SO glad that flow has begun! Phew Lawd! Cause I was ready to kill somebody!!!  So tonight is Kwando Jam!! I love that class, but ONLY when the ex-cheerleader teaches it b/c she has so much energy.  

Anywho, Let me pretend like I am working....lol  Only an hour and 20 minutes left then off to the gym!

He Likey, I likey too!

Feb 13, 2008

Well, let me first say I have always been the biggest Valentine's Day hater!  Well, this year is a little different.  The Sgt made me his valentine.  Which was FUNNEE! (I mispelled it on purpose ya'll) Well, I got my present yesterday, shoot, I'm wearing it now, the funny things is the military searches their packages and apparently put his mom's v-day card in my box....ROFL.  You want to talk about awkward I'm mailing hers and she is mailing mine.  He was like, "you know she asked me who Ebony was right"  LOL.  oh well.  He got my V-day present on Saturday and he really likes it, especially the "forever" rose with my perfume sprayed on it.  I won't tell you all he said, but he did say make sure your wearing that when I see you.  Crazy! Ok so the first time in 26 years I am not a V-day grouch, wow, I don't even know what to say. 

It's nice, weird, but nice.  Anywho, getting ready for step class tonight! Cannot wait! I missed it!
