Today I’m celebrating the third anniversary of my 29th birthday. Happy Birthday to me! Today I’m eating my cake, this morning I ate my cake, and tonight I’m eating my cake, and Saturday I’m eating my cake again. Why? Because I can. This is my eighth bariatric birthday, I’ve earned it. But the real reason [...]

I’m the Coldest Broad You Know
Don’t take my word for it, just ask my ex husband. Oh yeah, he’ll tell you I’m a cold hearted bitch who never loved him despite putting up with his lying, cheating and addictions for nearly nine years, but that’s beside the point and not what I’m talking about. He or anyone else who knows [...]

Pretty Mature for a Seven-Year-Old
I think I’m pretty darn mature for a seven-year-old, darn tall too. In fact, one might wonder how I have a job, a driver’s license and can get into bars. I’m even graduated from college already. Ok, I’m not one of those prodigal whiz kids who go to Harvard before puberty to get a degree [...]

Thank You Thanksgiving
I want to give thanks, for Thanksgiving. The reason I’m so grateful for this particular holiday is because, while it revolves around food, it only lasts one day. Oh I know what you’re thinking, but the leftovers don’t. But that’s really up to you. Thanksgiving is the perfect bariatric holiday in my opinion. I eat [...]

The Killer Ds

Sex, Donuts or Both?
So this morning I sent a text message to the New Romantic Interest posing a very simple question – “You know what I’ve had on my mind all morning?” And who’d have thought I’d be so easy to read, because the reply I got was the following – “Sex, donuts or both?” *audible gasp followed [...]

The Weighing Game
I know all there is to know about the weighing game. So you’d think that upon starting my Hawaii bikini challenge I would weight myself as a starting reference point to see if I’m making progress. But, believe it or not, I forgot. Now before we get too excited, I did remedy the situation yesterday [...]

Black Leather a Big Motivator
Quality of life, improved health, increased life expectancy, vanity – you’d think these reasons would be enough of an incentive to maintain weight loss achieved through bariatric surgery. But quite often they are simply not enough, or maybe more accurately, they are simply too much. These reasons are just too ethereal. Motivations like these are [...]
