❤MARCH 2019 CHALLENGE❤



Recommended Posts

Lots of happy childhood memories running rampant outdoors with my two little sisters and our dog. East Texas in the 80s!

Also, my favorite perfume is Chloe Nomade. So expensive I can only buy the tiny bottles but I love it so it's worth it. It's the perfume that finally got me to switch from my old stand by, Chanel Allure. I feel like a new woman when I wear it :)

March 4th:
Happy Childhood memories are abundant but one i can visibly share is playing in a blizzard with my siblings (photographers). I am swinging from our ancient Magnolia tree. My ridiculousness was indulged at every turn (within reason) and I am supremely grateful.

That is a smile of pure, unadulterated joy!

Challenge B side question: What is your favorite perfume? This is my favorite: Orchid from Zara. Inexpensive but super fragrant. Smells like hibiscus tea and summer in the West Indies.
I discovered this after WLS because i bever could shop at Zara, they had nothing in my size. But my niece ,24, asked me to shop with her there and try on clothes etc. I still didnt like much although I could fit it all now but this was the true treasure found.
What's your favorite?

I love the Crabtree & Evelyn oriental range, particularly Ottoman Rose. It's bloomin' expensive - it's the poshest beauty product I own and I love it. https://crabtree-evelyn.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/80432_nocolor.jpg

4. Happy Childhood Memory. We lived on a farm when I was a kid, and my parents threw my brother and I a birthday party (our birthdays are three days apart). I remember it was a gorgeous sunny September day and dad had put bales of hay out for us to sit on. I felt like the sun was shining just for me and I can smell the hat even today.

Favourite childhood memory... gosh, I don't think I have one. I might have to come back to that one later when one stands out to me. I had a hard but also somehow magical childhood.

Favourite perfume - weirdly, my sense of smell seemed to change after my first bariatric surgery. Smells I previously liked just didn't gel with me any more, especially the more musky deep scents. I'd say one of my favourite all time perfumes though is the now discontinued Donna Karan's Chaos.

DAY 4:

  • Happiest Childhood Memory- I'm a military brat. My fondest memories are traveling by car on summer vacation all over the country with my sisters and brother. Seeing nothing but corn fields, traveling through Kansas. Seeing the Mojave desert in California. No worries just a carefree kid.
  • Favorite perfume: I think it's called Bon Chic by Max Azria. It's a light not to heavy perfume.

Thanks for sharing all those memories! I could visualize them all very clearly (with a pinch of borrowed nostalgia)

      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.
