Guest guest Posted September 29, 2001 Report Share Posted September 29, 2001 AJ - I'm soo happy for you!! You go girl!!! I completely understand the boost in our self image that having this much weight off does!! I actually went on a date Thursday night for the first time in years. It went well...and he's even called a couple times since!! You see my boyfriend of 3 years admitted to me ONE week after my surgery that he was " emailing " another girl - Well to say the least, I got the courage up two days later to " be honest " with him and let him know that I had lost all faith in him...and that he was more than welcome to go pursue his " friendship " with this girl. The last 8 weeks have been some of the happiest in my life....I have a whole new lease on life!!! =) Lots of luv and Congratulations!!!!!

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2001 Report Share Posted September 29, 2001 Hey AJ, You GO, Girl! It must be great to be able to do things again. One of My goals is to be able to breathe easier, and have better breath control. I'm the lead singer in a local original band (we have 2 cd's out on our own label, Rockdiva records). As I have gained weight I have found it increasingly harder to hold notes for any length of time because of my shortness of breath. I'm so looking forward to singing my lungs out again...maybe it will inspire me to write some new songs, too! And don't forget the sexy outfits I'll be able to wear on stage...I've fantasized all my life over high heeled boots, leather pants and a low cut(but modest) shirt. Yahoo! Can't wait! Peace and Love, denise in ny > I went to a concert last night for a local band (Rail) that I followed around > in my 20's!!!!
