    Quotes & Inspiration

    I'm not you You are not me We are each on our own pathway But when they do run parallel or intersect May I walk a while with you?
  6. And someday with enough diligence after my surgery I can rock a senior level bod, maybe not quite as good as yours but a satisfying state anyway.

    Tattoos?

    Although I have gotten much less fearful about things, tattooing I'm a little still, I have wanted ever since his death my son's name Kevin at the top, an sweet looking Angel and under that his birth date. May 7 1976 death date,January 11 2008 all placed on my left arm at the pulse spot. Sounds pretty, doesn't it? Would you believe I approached a tattoo artist with a shop maybe 2-3 blocks from here- he poo-pooed it, said I had a faulty commitment to tattooing? It would be small, maybe that was his kvetch, well I was doing it for me not to impress the world anyway. Pfooey on him anyway, I do have a friend and I have seen his work, he does beautiful ink, he would do it for $65 which I find reasonable. But I still,balk, remember I'm 72, my generation's mama's told us only fallen women had tattoos and never anywhere anybody could see them. Wasn't like I was planning an arrow on my upper inner thigh pointing to my lady parts after all. If I had a lover who had trouble finding the proper area, don't think I would want them. Only other one I'm pondering is a Phoenix bird, rising. from my former life and flying strong and free. But where should I put it ? IDK. But I do still yearn for my mini- angel!😝

    Weight Loss Family Reunion

    Well I know a few things about Delaware. Let's see, you are grouped with surrounding states as Delmarva, Joe Biden was your Senator before he became Obama's Vice-President, his late son Beau Biden was once your Attorney General, you have Dover Downs of racing fame, I think when killed Serviceman are returned to the USA I think they off-load at Dover, DuPont, and if the movie 1776 is to be believed your representative Caeser Romney was terminally ill but cared for freedom so strongly that he used his remaining strength to attend in Philadelphia. So you see I do know bits and pieces about your small but powerful state. You are my first Delaware friend so I am honored to know you! I never thought you were part of Pennsylvania, but when I was 6 or 7 I thought New Jersey was, once I knew a little more about our country I knew better.
  9. Frightening turn of events to what you hoped would be a beautiful story. Please rest , heal and I am happy they did not kill you, for you easily could have died from their bungling🙏Thankful that you. didn't, I have lost too many friends as it is.😫💦😫

    I can't make a decision

    And many changes in her thinking will have to occur for her ever to be ready. You have to feel major surgery is preferable to continue living as you are and she doesn't seem at that point. Maybe later, maybe never.

    July Gastric Bypass?

    And I will be cheering you both along, I have faced people saying I was silly, foolish, too old, should be satisfied the way I am, hope I will succeed, for this is my time, my chance, and your chances too for a brighter healthier future. Let's do it and prove the nay-sayers wrong, I'm up for it, how about you?😛👍😛

    Just Say No to Cheez-Its!!!

    I feel the same about White Cheddar ones but we are separated and finalizing our divorce with my RnY on September 5th. I've just got to make sure they don't sneak back to my pantry shelf where I can find them!🍞

    Stigma with WLS

    There is nothing shameful for trying to better yourself. You don't deserve a scarlet letter, rather you deserve a shining twinkling 🌟. If others don't understand that it's a lack in them, not you. Continue on your path, for you might be an inspiration for someone to start their own.😝👍🍀
  23. Land sakes hadn't heard that for a while, got another one that goes with my pen name Frustr8,"as frustrated as a wallpaperer with weak paste" At any rate, you are among friends here, anything you need answered, we will be happy to help. Some people get brave sooner than others, I will have my RnY September 5th At the age of 72 years 8 months and 10 days. Been seeking it since August 2015, a lot of twists, turns, a few roadblocks, quagmires, and a rollercoaster of emotion, in 6 weeks I'll have my satisfaction. I am ready to make my remaining years better, healthier, thinner and I hope fitter. That last for a redheaded post-menopausal broad might not be achievable, but I will try very hard. "She saw a change needed to be made; and she did it!"

    Stigma with WLS

    Stigma maybe, stigmata very doubtful unless your side and the palms of your hands are bleeding.
