Finally a picture of me!



Recommended Posts

Okay, I broke down and will post a shot of my mug. It actually came from the DMV of all places! It's not the best quality but it really does look like me, warts and all...crooked teeth, wide nose, squinty eyes, and bags! Oh no! I usually look like a tick in pictures but this one has left off my swollen body, so it's actually not bad...but, here's me. Hope you aren't disappointed! LOL!

Hey, do I look like I'll be 40 on Monday? Lie to me...

(oh please picture, don't be so big I'm all over the screen...if it is, someone please make it smaller!!!)

Kathy, No way you look 40!! You look like a kid. I see a very pretty lady here. And I am not lying. Man... it is so good to put a face with the name. Someday I will see if I can figure out how to post a digital photo of me too.

OK take that pic off and put up the real pic of Kathy. That pic has to be your younger sister. You are NOT turning 40 that is not true. You look 29 in that pic.

Alright missy! I don't see warts, a wide nose, crooked teeth, OR squinty eyes at all! You are beautiful! You are MUCH prettier than you think. I totally had you pictured as hispanic. Isn't that funny of me? Funny how we get pictures of people in our heads before "seeing" them for real.

Anywho.........you're gorgeous!!!!!!

AWWW, ya'll are so sweet!! Keep it comin!

Okay, so I have 2 blondes and one hispanic? That's funny. Actually, in my twenties I had lots of blonde, I had started frosting it and of course it gets worse and worse. It came to one day, I was going to either dunk it all blonde and do the roots myself to save money, or dunk it all back to my brown color and let the covered up blonde grow out. So I grew out the blonde by dunking it back to brown. My hair is much healthier for it, too. I'm so pasty white (I look kind of orangey in the pic) but I want to do a "washes out in 30 shampoos" Medium Auburn. Should I? Guess it can't hurt but ya'll don't laugh when I do it cuz I'll post a pic!!!

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I don't really think I look 40 either. And no double chin but I have the neck "rings" from chub. You can kind of see them.

So how do I get the "mature" look of a woman my age? Oh! I know! Get a band and lose weight and get a whole new wardrobe!!! Getting there!!

      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.
