MINI-Me 196 Posted July 5, 2011 This weekend, my family went to Winthrop, WA - it is set up as an Old West Town. We decided to do the old antique pictures. We've done these every 3 or 4 years since the boys were young. Normally, I have to wear some old dowdy thing to either fit me or not show all my rolls. And, the strings in the back never tied very well - left my butt hanging out the back. This year, I wore a Saloon Girl Bustiere and fishnet stocking with high heels. And get this ... the strings wouldn't tie again. But, not because I was so fat. The strings couldn't get the outfit tight enough. They had to use clamps in the back to keep it on me. It was amazing! I just grinned the whole time. I planted my butt up on the bar, grabbed my fake bottle of Jack Daniels and whooped it up for the camera. WHAT A BLAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fat4now 7 Posted July 5, 2011 CONGRATULATIONS!!! I know that had to feel amazing!! I LOVE those pics and can't wait to feel comfortable enough to take one myself. I've had them taken of my daughter and niece and nephew but never had the guts to take one of myself (Too insecure)...I can't wait for these NSV's! Congratulations on your weight loss!~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
