Talking Mixed Emotions...
I am kind of torn between being ecstatic and a little down LOL! Before I get started please dont think I am depressed or anything because I am not. I just want so share some early morning sillyness....

I woke up this morning bright and early at 4.30 as i do every morning. i took my elliptical machine for a spin, showered, dried off and looked in the full length mirror for the first time in YEARS, literally. ( I usually run by it looking in the opposite direction lol!)

I noticed something...I'M FLABBY. I'm torn because I know flabbiness means I've lost weight AND inches but...I'M FLABBY. LOL! I have bat wings! lol!

SO i giggled, got dressed and went on about my business. I just wanted to share....hey does this count as a wow moment too? LOL!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

LOL! Trust me, I never expected to get into a bikini post op either! It's just NOT in the cards for me...at least not in public

I think Im being a good sport lol. I KNOW flabbyness means weight and inches lost. And i feel soooooo much better. No regrets at all...

Woohoo, congrats. Keep up with the exercise, and at least, some of that can be toned.
You sure are doing well!!

I know exactly what you mean, I see the flab and jiggly fat, I have not been working out but I am about to start a serious workout plan.

Jiggly, flabby, a mirror? WHAT? Are these new words in our vocabulary? I think I like these new adjectives. Like my smooth-tight-skin- so- strectched to the limits- stomach is going to go to flab? Hooray! How much do one those mirror things cost? I might get one.


Just joking. You know you are just starting out and when you (and soon myself I hope)start exercising hopefully that jiggly flab will burn away and leave muscle. Mattie

I was actually really enthralled at all the new things happening to my body. Now of course, I'm getting tired of the flab, but if I have to I will save my money and get surgery! I want to look great in my heart and head and if that means going under the knife, so be it. I like playing with my belly flab. That's weird I know, but for so long it was this big huge blob that stuck out and was so gross and distended I felt like a beached whale all the time. Now even though I have a ways to go, I enjoy being able to have something to jiggle. I have been working out too and hope that it will tighten some of it up.

Hugs to you and all your flab!

Bren
