Whoa....I know it's been a LONG time...

Feb 26, 2009

Well what can I say?  I don't live on this board anymore.  I haven't been on to update in ages.  Things in my life are interesting.  I would have never guessed 18 months ago that I would be where I am today.  I am in the middle of a brutal divorce, but I am happy about the decision I made to leave him.  I am with someone else now, and I am happy.  As for the surgery, I am very happy with my decision to do this.  The only downfall is that I have TONNES and TONNES of skin that needs to be removed.  I have heard that OHIP will approve now one cosmetic surgery, so I am actively looking for information on that.  I want a whole body reconstruction....every part of me sags.  I HATE looking at it in the mirror when I am naked.  I look great in clothes...but the minute the clothes come off....UGH!  18 months ago I wore a size 32 (5X-6X) and today I am wearing jeans that are size 12/14.  I have shirts that range from Medium to XL depending on the shirt....however most are a size Large!  Not even XL....but LARGE!  I still cant get over the price difference in clothes.  It is nothing now to walk into Walmart and just pick something off the rack...whether it be underwear/bra whatever!!!  Exciting!  And cute stuff to choose from!  I have new matching bra/underwear sets....that I had ALWAYS wanted to buy!  I feel sexy most of the time (with clothes ON!) and I feel FANTASTIC!  I do so much more...and I love that I am not limited by my weight!  This winter I went tubing....NEVER would I have done that before.  I went to the Dominican and wore a bathing suit!  Can't say I looked pretty in it...but I wore one none-the-less!  My confidence level is amazing, and DAILY I am still getting compliments...and men who make no bones whatsoever to make sure they know they are interested in me.  It's crazy!  I have come to enjoy the attention, and it makes me feel great!  In the vitamin department....well I lack in that!  I haven't taken vitamins in MONTHS....however I know I need to start doing that!  I am looking forward to summer so I can start running again...this has been a VERY long winter and I certainly have NOT been working out!  I only have about 30 lbs left to lose....and I plan on doing it this summer.  It is unfortunate that likely 20 lbs of that is skin!!!!!  I really want to get my arms done...they are absolutely HIDIOUS...and a panni done.....!  My ass sags and my theighs sag too...sadly....but we will see what happens.  I am not to anxious to go through major surgeries again....but hey..I have worked hard to get here....why not finish what I started???  Anyways...that is the brief update on my life.....will hopefully get on here more.....I like to see how everyone is making out....and it has been a very long time since I snooped.  Take care everyone......drop me a line if you want!
