Support.....

I love the fact that I have a wonderful support system. My hubby is now realizing some of it's rewards. He's now excited for me, which is a big turnaround from him worrying about me doing this procedure. I showed him some before and after photos of people with similar body shapes and their results. He keeps saying that my result will be better because of my body shape.... we'll see.

My friends are the greatest. They know how much this means to me. The freedom of not feeling the belly flap up and down as I run down the steps of my house - yuck! Then reality hit me..... if my butt is huge now, OMG it's going to look MASSIVE after the operation! LOL. At least the belly makes my butt look a little smaller than it is. Oh well, the price I pay for tightness.... haha!

This is going to be the LONGEST 3 weeks for me to wait for a consult. It's like waiting for my tax return money - tick tock tick tock....... In the meantime I hope I can shed the 14 lbs of blubber before going in. That'll be nice.

I know that some people are judgmental when it comes to me doing this without losing massive weight first. See I believe that the ideal weight is what a person feels most comfortable, not what another person thinks is good for you. If I weighed 120 lbs would I be happier or would the people around me be happier? I was that weight once and I hated it. I was not happy, feeling mostly depressed and didn't eat much. Always felt weak. Everyone else used to tell me how great I looked but didn't care to see that I was so unhappy. I starved myself back then. I will never do that again. However, I know that as I get older I really need to consider what I eat for my own health. So I believe this is all a wake up call for me. It is about me getting into healthier habits, not weight loss. If I happen to lose weight in the process, so be it. If not, that's okay too.

Well this booty girl needs to get ready for my afternoon with my little princess. She has her dance class and I don't want her to miss it. Then it's off to work tonight to sing to the regulars at my job. Take care all!!!!
