Supporting Red...

I come to Lit and find that my subscription to this thread... my thread... has disappeared! I had to resubscribe. lol.:rolleyes:

I bought a pair of 16 pants a while back because I was into a 16. I got them home and tried them on, couldn't understand why they wouldn't fit. :( Then I realized that they were 16 Missy not 16 Women's. A difference that only women will understand, but there is a difference, trust me.

This morning just for shits and giggles I tried them on. They fit. :nana: :D *happy redhead* The one draw back is that because they are average length, the crotch doesn't fit snug against me, which is a bit annoying because it feels like my pants are falling down. :p

When I did buy them and realize they wouldn't fit, I tried to give them to my daughter, but she didn't like the style, I guess the pant leg bottom was too narrow for her pleasure. Not flared, I believe was her reasoning for refusing a new pair of jeans. Kids. :rolleyes:

My feet are smaller too. Imagine that. lol... I can fit a 9 1/2 in some styles or even a 9. I normally wear a 10 in sneakers and depending on the style of heel, I may sometimes need an 11. It's strange to see me slip on a different size shoe after so many years.

A girl at work said I had skinny arms. That was cool too.

I still struggle though, believe me it isn't all fun and games on this end of the screen. Especially when I'm naked and I look at myself. The scar from the emergency surgeries back in May and June are healing, but my stomach looks so deformed. The skin is loose around my thighs now. I'd probably be in a smaller size jean if it wasn't for the needed material to hold the thighs. :(

My upper arms are not slim or attractive. You can definitely tell what needs to be surgerically altered. My breasts... I don't have any. I mean I have them, of course. They are there, but not where they are supposed to be. They sag as if I am an old, old, old and did I mention old, woman. Without a bra... my chest seems flat at the top and just well, not all that great looking.

The thing that suprises me most though (because remember I was more than aware I'd have skin issues)... is my pussy. I mean... I never really thought much of it and how it would be effected by weight loss, but it too is looser. Not the inner muscles mind you, they still grip just fine, ;) but the outer skin, there is more there than needed, now that I've lost weight and it shows. I'll be adding surgery to that area too when I stablize.

My face though, thank goodness looks good. lol... conceited of me to say that? Perhaps, but I have to focus on something that doesn't make me dislike looking in the mirror.

I don't like the idea of people seeing me naked. I really don't. I would much rather undress under the covers than to undress in front of someone I am attracted to. :eek: They say it wouldn't matter what a person looks like and I know that's true, but inside... you still fear that rejection. For a brief moment a person's face will show their true feelings and honestly all I want to see is acceptance and not disgust flutter across; I see enough disgust in my own.

I guess it was time to whine a bit. Sorry about that. . . I am not unhappy with losing weight, I just struggle from time to time with the results. I know in the end it'll work out the way I need it too, but today just seemed a bit of an ew moment and I had to get it off my chest, so to speak.

:kiss:

Thanks all.
 
Some change is very difficult (((((((((Red))))))))) and with time your brain will see these changes differently.

I know that some of what your are dealing with is underused muscle too.

The scars, well I know it doesn't help, but time will reduce the impact.

I can't say just when mine became less noticeable, but my last hair cut I had to point out the one from my head to shoulders on the back of my neck.

There are more products available to reduce scaring then there were when I had mine done, so that might be an option too.

Yes, we all wish to look our best and with time and effort the heart of gold I see from behind my screen will shine through and your efforts will pay off...

You will regain muscle with your increased activity levels...

I still recall how sad you were that you couldn't keep up...

Take a moment to look back on how far you have come sweetheart.

You have already accomplished more than you thought you could...

Be proud... :D

The tiny gallbladder scars are nothing. I don't mind them, it's this huge one that runs hip to hip, but you're right, I'll adjust.

I do know that eventually muscle will aid in the skin issues, I just have to wait. Which is not an easy thing. :eek:

Thank you. :kiss: I appreciate your thoughts and they are so needed during this *pity me* moment. :eek:

*hugs* :kiss:
 
Oh wow! First grilled cheese sandwhich since Oct. 2006! It's amazing. :D :D :D Granted I can only eat half of it, but omgosh it's good.
 
:rose: :heart: :rose:

Here's to the most beautiful creatures on earth. Full figured, red-haired, Celtic complexion, luscious creamy skin, perfection in coloring in my mind. Love the blushing tones in the face and cleavage, the medium to large rose nipples, the plump ass, even the reddish pubic hair all blends to something more than gorgeous.

Being friendly, poetic, open-minded, and loving as well - what more could any man want I ask you now! They're also marvelous in bed I might add. :nana:

Well, I must admit I'm a bit biased since I courted and married one and count myself lucky!


:rose: :kiss: :rose:

Oh, that wasn't pity or I wouldn't have any comments.

Your concerns are valid and your body image has changed drastically. It is the mind that is catching up, but I don't want you to focus on the negative when you have accomplished so much...

Negativity is an emotional drain, but even a little optimism builds positive energy...

Tuesday wasn't a good day, but when I arrived at the gym and was met by the gal at the desk who asked me how I was I answered...

Not bad thanks, could be worse, it could be raining... :D

If it can get worse, then it isn't that bad... ;)

(((((((((Red)))))))))) ...:kiss:

:kiss: ((((Hugs)))) Good thing you're here to keep my head on straight. :kiss:

This week has been a long one. There was a death in the family, unexpected and those are always hard to deal with. I'll be working a partial shift today and taking tomorrow off.

Have a good day/week/weekend.. ;) Oh and of course root for the Giants on Sunday. ;)
 
Anyone want to bribe me for cheering for their Team;) j/k
