I am no longer in denial. I am a thick girl. I decided to post some full body shots because this past year I have gained thirty pounds. I am sick of it really. I am tall so my weight looks different on me. I guess I wear it well. I am officially on a diet or should I say life change. My weight keeps me from dating among other things and since I am not dating I might as well eat but the weight keeps me from dating.... It's a crazy cycle. Bad enough I used to have the brown girl issues which I will not speak about but you know what I mean if you are a brown girl. Let's put it this way when you get played you begin to critique every thing about yourself..... I feel like Oprah with the weight thing. I excerise yes not a fan of it. My second address is not at the gym. I am starting to eat right as of last week but I back slid this week. I am an emotional eater or snacker. I snack all the time. If I am mad I snack if I get my feeling hurt I snack and if I am in deep though I snack. When I am really liking or feeling myself I work out.Hmmm what a connection I just made! So I am saying today!! I like myself way too much to be this new person. I will loose this weight by the end of the summer so consider this my before shots. I will not post progress shots nor will I say what I weigh. I am 5'7 so it stretches. My sister had a baby and lost all her weight. I still have mine..... However I don't really compare my self to anyone but my former self. I am working on the inside to transform the outside but old habits die hard.
In all fairness about 15 lbs is due to steroids and the other meds I take on a regular basis. The rest of my assests is all on me.
My hair looks good since I can see length. I only see length through pictures in person I only see flaws. Today this man was talking to his son and I guess they were talking about my hair cuz I heard the son say something that he wasn't shaving his hair off. The conclusion that I drew was that he wanted locks and his father (old school shallow black man) was asking him if thats what he wanted while looking at me. You know I gave him the evil damn eye like don't stare at me and talk cuz I ain't deaf you know...... Any who....

Thanks Euphoria.... Dads can say a lot of crazy stuff to their daughters.. My daddy calls me ms. Piggy... he thinks its cute i think its rude...
Girl you looking good. I've learned to love myself despite my physical flaws. Of course I know I need to loose some of the weight I gained this past year while in school, for better health.
Flip side, your SL's are looking good. Are some of your ends starting to seal?
Penny, in my opinion, you're a dime :o) I am researching diy locking and I came across your blog. I find it inspirimg and refreshing to hear someone chronicle their real life experiences. I too am looking to shed some weight. Like so many of us, I am totally clueless on what to eat and how to make healthy food selections. As I type this comment, I am ordering Michael Thurmond's 6 week body makeover. It takes out the guess work. It's worth a look. I also read "real" people's testimonies and reviews from other sites that are not affiliated with the program, not the ones that were paid. It's worth a look at. BTW, your locks are beautiful. Keep posting and being a positive inspiration to us all! God bless!
