Gorgeous shot - beautiful dress (you ARE very multi talented by the way). What other art do you do? What magazine are you going to be in?

BUT - dare I ask how you managed to break your nose in 5 places :thumbdown: ?That must be incredibly painful. What can you do to help healing, except avoid anything touching your face?

Your pictures are lovely! I too would like to do something similar when I get to goal. I don’t know why but I just love taking pictures more than ever now. I can just imagine when I’ve gotten to where I want to be.<o:p></o:p>

I am a commercial artist, I used to own a sign company. Now I do freelance photography, corporate identity, design work, lots of stuff. I am not doing it anymore because working in corporate took away my passion for it. Most artists will tell you they can't work for someone else and be happy! :frown: SO Now I do photography on the side when I want to. :w00t:

I am 6', so I am able to put things away on TOP of my 7.5' cupboards. WELL I think the last time I put my sugar bowl up I didn't push it all the way the back and it flipped off smack down onto the bridge of my nose. A tupperwear dish with 10 pounds of sugar... :frown: HURTS SO BAD!

This is what it looks like today, not horrible, but you can see the BIG crack on the bridge, the other breaks are down the sides...ugh..

Well I have to say - you even make having a 5x broken nose look pretty darn good!!!!!

Oh - to be 6' ft tall - the only things going on the top of my cupboards are dustibles that go up and never come done :frown:

I am glad that you are still able to enjoy your talent on your own terms.

Take care of you :smile:

BBK...I go away for the weekend and what do I find? You looking extra hot but hurting AGAIN!!!

I think you are having a summer like me.....I will pray we both heal soon and better than before! You are still an inspiration to me and many other ladies so THANK YOU for sharing your stories.

I can not wait to see more pics....make sure to keep tabs on the nose!

As for me, fill number 3 tomarrow! I hope this puts me in a more restricted world...my broken foot is almost healed and I hope to begin exercising again next week...it has been since my surgery, other than walking, UNTIL I fell like a graceful gal and broke my foot!

I have noticed I was more clutzy this summer...I attribute it to possibly the anestesia meds? Maybe that can be your excuse too?

Be well, Shelley

I say go for it.

I have a friend who does this kind of photography, and one of these days I'll ask him about doing a shoot for me.

And he's very respectful, and works with whatever you're comfortable with--sexy lingerie, cleavage/revealing clothes, and I think he even does full nudity.

I wouldn't do THAT, but I would totally rock on some tasteful lingerie and sexy clothes and heels.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
