The Gnitty Gritty Details...

Apr 14, 2012

So this is me by the numbers on paper. Of course it says nothing of my sparkling personality, wit, humor, intelligence, and vibrance for life.

Bust: 45"
Arms: 16"
Waist: 41"
Hips: 47"
Calves: 20.5"
Neck: 15"
Thighs: 29"
Pant Size: 20W
Shirt Size: XXL
Bra Size: 38C

I had a hard time picking ONE outfit to wear in my before pictures. Each look is so different to me. I plan to save these outfits to do updates as I go. (hopefully...still awaiting insurance approval at this point). Click on my "Befores" album to see.

I read the post about turning points for people that made them decide it was time to pursue surgery. Mine include: 1) A young boy asking me why my belly was so big. I told him cause I ate the last child who asked me that. 2) A man at the movies had a fit when I decided to sit in front of his kids and when we got in to a verbal argument, he told me to "go gain some more weight." 3) I was at a turning point career-wise after looking for years for jobs in my field. I decided to consider the military but was told I was too heavy to be accepted. I needed to lose at least 80 lbs before they consider me.
