Smile No more nylon noise!

Before, when i wore tights or nylons with my skirts, my thighs rubbed so bad that with every step it went "zzwwhhoooshhh zzwwhhoooshh". i often wondered to myself "can my tights catch on fire with all of this friction?" hahaha. well yesterday there was no noise at all, i guess i have lost enough that my thighs don't rub so bad and now i walk quietly around in my skirts!!

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.

Default Lol!!!!!!

This title is HILARIOUS....and definitely an attention 'getter!'
I know WE ALL can relate to this in some form or another...guys not so much with HOSE - but the whole 'rubbing thighs' and friction is relate-able! LOL...

Even though I've nearly lost HALF of myself....my thighs STILL RUB....I don't think I hear the "zzwwhhoooshhh zzwwhhoooshh"....from before - I'll listen for it though!
______________________________________

Thanks for the memories.....
It made me think of a story from my honeymoon -
My husband and I were in France....(I was about.... 60#'s heavier - wow, I just did the math - and I'm amazed...I didn't think I was that much heavier!) ANYWAY....

Anyway...we were in France, we stayed in Paris...but on this day we traveled by train south of Paris to Versailles to see the Chateau. We got off the train...found the palace easily...and toured the grounds and buildings....it was a summer Sunday, so the fountains were on...and they had gorgeous symphony music filtered thru the grounds....it was absolutely magical! So lets just say...there was A LOT of walking involved...it was a sunny day...I was wearing a sun dress...etc.

Well....we had to leave the Chateau to be able to catch the LAST train back into Paris. THANKFULLY, my husband likes to have a tons of 'buffer time'...and made us leave a little earlier than I would have! We headed in the direction (or so I thought) for the train....after walking FOREVER we realized that we were definitely lost....and I was chaffing in the WORST possible way.... it got soooo bad - that I had to STOP.... I literally thought I'd not be able to walk another step! I was upset...and crying... but thankfully my sweet 'new husband' was a bone of strength... and encouragement....
We did finally find someone to give us direction - and as our toes touched the platform we hopped on the LAST TRAIN to Paris just as the doors closed....THANK THE LORD....that would've been horrible!!!

kinda funny now, huh???
Thankfully, Russ and I laugh about it often....

Yahoo!!!! I think its great!! I love it that we all know what each other is thinking feeling when these little WOW'S pop up!!! This is one of my favorites, I love having a pair of nice fitting jeans on and looking in the mirror and being able to see through my legs when standing strait. Kinda a funny story to this, if out of line I am so very sorry, We were out with a couple friends and we were talking about a cutie that walked in the bar with my single friend and he made a comment about how he likes when a girls legs dont rub together and there is a space (he likes teeny tiny petite girls) well goofy me pops up and says " oh man I just love the little space between my legs", I swear my whole table about fell over with their eyes popped out, Ron lost all color in his face, took me a couple seconds to figure out how that sounded and then had to explain myself, I was really kinda of embarassed but it was with friends so it turned into a good laugh
