  1. ...why does this girl have the biggest butt ever? A constant reminder that I am resigned to sit on my tailbone for the rest of my life. #skinnygirlproblems

  2. Dulce passed her smog inspection! And the nice old man at the test center gave me an extra $10 off on top of my coupon, simply because I did my research! Today is off to a great start!!! Wooooo!!!

  3. just purchased her very first VS bra, after years of them not fitting properly. And, it was on CLEARANCE!! Amen, and amen!

  4. got to see some of her favorite people today! Now, waiting for my shift at work to start, and trying to brainstorm outfit ideas in the event that we go out tonight! Hmmm.....!

  5. Oh, and I'm on ooVoo.... CJKilla88 :) YAY!

  6. ...of course it took me 20 minutes to find the Navy Fed branch by my job. And then of course, the line is out the door. Oh, I cannot WAIT to hit the gym and get some frustrations out tonight! Ugh!!

  7. cannot sleep. So, I am reading my old blog and laughing at my crazy self. I have to be at work at 8:30am, and head to the gym after a 12 hour work day. This can't end well. Lol.

  8. was surprised to receive a VS PINK Chargers tee from the Bestie today! Size Large! Rockin' it with some size 14 jeans that require a belt, and pretty much lovin' life right now! Only problem is, the majority of my clothes need to be given away yet again. Oh well. That's what happens when you lose 90 lbs, huh?

  9. Happy New Year, sleevers! Just wondering if anyone has any experience in going for skin removal surgery as a post-op? I am only 6 months out, but have lost ninety lbs so far. I originally intended to lose 130 overall, and want to start exploring my options for the skin removal surgery now. I have a Scripps *** through Anthem BCBS, and I was very fortunate to have my VSG procedure covered in full, and approved within three months. Anyone have any success stories, or know what the optimal percentage of excess weight loss may be? Any resources would be super helpful! Sondra
  10. has officially lost 63 lbs since June 20th. First time I've weighed under 250 in YEARS! Please check out my WLS blog: SeeSondraSlim.wordpress.com!

  11. Thanks for the friend request Neese! So excited to be a part of your journey! :)

  12. started a new blog to follow on this journey! 35 lbs down! SeeSondraSlim.wordpress.com!! :)

  13. had a lovely weekend! Went to the races, and spent time at the Glen Ivy spa with the girls! Bathing suit looks FIERCE!! :)

    Myrori, I can only speak for myself, but I relate to what you're saying! And it doesn't make you a b word....you're genuinely concerned for him. Sean pisses me off, but not because I think he's gross....just because I hate to see him be SO unhappy, and yet SO much more incapable of doing something about it. I think that's where love gets tricky. Here you are making these huge moves in your weight loss journey, and every time you turn around, you're looking at a reminder of what life could have been. Maybe even what it used to be. Hopefully it won't come to the relationship ending. Keep your head up!!

    It's interesting, because my current "whatever-he-is" was a football player, but since coming home from college, while he still EATS like a football player, he doesn't work out like one. Even before the sleeve, I had healthy eating habits, and exercised regularly. He sleeps through his gym alarm every morning, and I hear him order his food after work at Jack in the Box: "Two extreme sausage sandwiches, 4 tacos, jalapeno poppers, and fries." Really, AND FRIES??? He has gained a lot of weight, which really doesn't bother me. I just get so frustrated, because he is so concerned with it, but he doesn't ACT like he cares. He is the only person I have EVER met who orders carne asada nachos with EXTRA meat, and EXTRA cheese. I can't even get him to touch veggies, and when he does, he makes a big production of it, like I'm forcing him. Do I feel disgusted? Maybe. But moreso, it's hard for me with this new lifestyle to imagine us going much further. Being supportive because he is excited I'll be thinner is one thing...but what about being supportive because he sees the difference good choices can make, surgery or not? It's not that I'm not attracted to him, so much as I just am frustrated with his lack of motivation, although he harps about how much the weight gain bothers him. Now I've babbled. But I feel better!
