Guest guest Posted April 25, 2001 Report Share Posted April 25, 2001 Dawn, Thank you, and you are right... I was only kidding about the cheerleader thing... I weighed 120lbs all through high school. I could have been a cheerleader if I wanted to, but I was way to cool for that .... I was a chubby kid (as my mom always said), but once I hit puberty I thinned out and stayed thin until my pregnancies. Then began my 15 year struggle with my weight. Today at 210, almost 5 months out, I am very happy with the person I am (even though my once beautiful hair is falling out in handfuls). I have my health, and hopefully a long life ahead of me.. hugs, Joni - dr. Thayer 11/27/00 Joni Joni, You are a beautiful woman also. I believe that when people like us suffer from some of life's greatest challenges, that we find fault with people who look (in our eyes) better than us. One thing I TRY and tell myself is, even though I've always been overweight, obese, morbidly obese, then super morbidly obese, I am thankful I had hair to work with, a face to put on makeup, a body to dress (when I could fit into the largest size on the rack), I could walk, and even though I was breathing heavily prior to surgery, I was still able to breath. This is why I don't look at people bodies as my impression of them. I believe even the " perfect " bodies, have their share of troubles, they just look good on the outside and that's what we see. btw...your daughter must have gotten your genes right?

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2001 Report Share Posted April 25, 2001 Joni! 210 ey??? WOO HOO BABY!!! Look at the bright side of hair...at least you have hair that falls out due to a drastic body change, and thankfully for your sake, it's not due to an illness, and will come back! One thing I highly recommend with the hair..wash every other day if you can, but condition faithfully, and NEVER BRUSH WET HAIR! Also, get some deep hair conditioning treatments (over the counter kind that works very well is: St Ives MUD MIRACLE)...treat the hair 1-2x per week, and it will help re-strengthen the not so powerful hair)!

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2001 Report Share Posted May 16, 2001 Joni! I am SOOO HAPPY for you!!! LMK how it feels when u hit the #1 in any denomination! That's my long term goal, a way to go, but I will survive too! I'm so glad you're aware now, as you weren't so aware prior to surgery. This is a GOOD thing to acknowledge, and like Sue W. says, PAT YOURSELF ON THE BACK! Hugs! Dawn Re: Horrible day yesterday I don't post much, but after reading your post Joni, I had to reply. I too am an emotional eater. I am right with you girl..... Just think...it was a minor set back...you had a bad day. We are all entitled to a bad day now and then. The best part is that you DIDN'T let it last a week like you would have before. I know I was capable of doing that too in the past. Believe me, there are days I dream of Ben and Jerry.....but, thankfully, ice cream, even low fat frozen yogurt makes me sick, so I can't eat it. Well, I can eat it, but boy do I pay for it right away. One day a couple weeks ago I had a really bad day at work and was totally depressed. I had to stop at the grocery store to get a couple things. Don't you know that the first place I went was to the bakery. (Old habits die hard!!!) I looked around, smelled the brownies, and then walked away. Of course, before I left the store I had to go BACK to the bakery and look around again. The best part was that I didn't buy anything from the bakery, I only got what I went in for. I have learned to "pat myself on the back" for the little achievments. Hang in there. The week will go by fast and your kids will be home before you know it. Sue W.
