Guest guest Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 's Daily Message MondayJuly 10, 2006SUIT YOURSELF I`ve been wearing suits ever since I was a baby. My father would actually make suits for Lenny and me. I have pictures of us in matching suits – navy blue, beige, brown hound`s tooth, and of course, summer white. As I started to put on weight, my father stopped making my clothes and took me to Sear`s basement to buy Husky suits. Every one the sales lady put on me looked awful, and whatever my father decided to buy, it had to be altered…. every inch of it! It still looked awful when they finished. And at 268 pounds, I really looked swell in my graduation suit. Even after I lost my weight, I never felt comfortable in putting on a suit. Putting on the Ritz is a different matter! LOL! When I do my Cruise to Lose, there are 2 formal nights, and I really have to prepare myself mentally for those evenings. Everyone says I look nice, and that`s why I get all dressed up. Do you feel the same way about getting all suited up? Well, maybe you feel like me. I`ve come to the conclusion that suits are simply not what I like to be in! Of course, there is one suit I will always have to wear, and that is my birthday suit! It`s a suit I will have to wear for the rest of my life! I never have to have it pressed or sent to the drycleaner. You just walk in the shower and turn on the water. In 2 days, my birthday suit will be a year older and wiser! There were years I hated to look at my birthday suit, so I didn`t. I mean, I knew I was fat, so what was the need to stare at it? For the first 19 years of my life, I treated my body like a garbage can. I would eat whatever I wanted and then I`d lie on my can and do nothing. When I think of the abuse I put my body through, I get sick, but with a lot of hard work, I turned my life and my body around! Tonight is our Clubhouse Member July Auditorium, and the topic tonight is How to Take Care of your Birthday Suit. We will all meet tonight at 5:15 PM PT, 6:15 PM MT, 7:15 PM CT, and 8:15 PM ET and chat about what lives below your neck! I want to say hello and welcome to all the new Members in our Clubhouse!
