Diary of My Weight Loss and Coping With Anxiety - A Spicy Boy, A Cat, and My Fat Ass

I love my Pampered Passions Fine Ligerie: Voted best lingerie store in the USA!

I'm a lady who likes to feel pretty as well as sexy. I'm always looking for good quality lingerie, but at an affordable price, and in my size. Being somewhat of a plus sized women, sometimes it's hard to feel sexy and beautiful, but with Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie I have no problem feeling like a princess! They take pride in their products, and only offer the best.

Over the last year I've lost well over 100Lbs, and find myself torn between the sizes of lingerie I'd wear. I'm currently borderline plus sizes, and regular sizes. Depending of the brand, style, fabrics, I can be a plus size, or an XL. Since I've been dropping so much weight, I almost didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on bras, as I know I'm going to continue to drop more. For those of you who haven't been following my weight loss journey, I opted for gastric bypass surgery, which was the best decision of my life. I've gone from wearing a 48DD to a 36D... wow! I notice it all over my body, but my boobs sure notice the difference. With all that weight loss, I needed to invest in a high supporting bra, to help prevent hanging breasts. Yes, unfortunately at the age of 31, I now have hanging boobs.

The Daniel Fast, by Susan Gregory

With it being the new year, there's always all kinds of products out there that talk about good health. I'm someone who likes to read something that's quick, easy, and can be read with many distractions around. For me, many books that I start to read, I don't get past the first chapter. I like to read, but I get easily distracted... so unless I'm hooked right away, it gets tossed to gather dust. The Daniel Fast by Susan Gregory, isn't one of those books gathering dust on my shelf!

Can't Wait to Decorate!

For those of you who don't already know, I bought a condo. Yes, it was in the spring of 2011 that I signed the papers for it, but it won't be ready to move in until around September 2015. A long time to wait, but it helps me come up with a big chunk of the down-payment. The last down-payment is scheduled to come out in two weeks, which leaves me excited to pack away the savings so I can get a lower mortgage. The money situation has been a little tough, especially with all the health problems that I've been through, and with being off of work, but my fiance and I are getting by.

In my mind I'm envisioning what I want to do to the new apartment, with all the decorating, and new furniture. I'm imagining the nice pendant lighting that I can have for above a new dining room table. Right now I don't have a dining room table, so that's something that I'm looking forward to having.

The kitchen and living room/dining room is all open concept, and I've selected to add a nice island to help accommodate for extra counter space, and storage. I've always loved the look of an island, and I'm so excited to see mine. I'm also imagining the nice island pendant lights that I can use to decorate with, and have it hanging above the island. I've always admired nice light fixtures on the cooking shows, and dreamed of having my own nice kitchen, in a place that I can call my own.

Mid Week Update

This has started off to be kind of a down week with my cousin passing away. Passing away is hard to deal with, but the fact of how she passed away (drowning), is what really has been making me sick to my stomach. It just breaks my heart, and I'm having a hard time dealing with it. Drowning is one of my fears, as I almost drowned when I was a kid at my aunts pool. I keep picturing her jeep crashing through the ice in the lake, and it's giving me nightmares.

Thinking about it is making me physically sick, and I don't know how to get it out of my mind. For those of you who are religious, say a little prayer for her... rest in peace.

What is a Heart Attack?

Definition:

A heart attack is when low blood flow causes the heart to starve for oxygen. Heart muscle dies or becomes permanently damaged. Your doctor calls this a myocardial infarction.

Alternative Names
Myocardial infarction; MI; Acute MI

Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Most heart attacks are caused by a blood clot that blocks one of the coronary arteries. The coronary arteries bring blood and oxygen to the heart. If the blood flow is blocked, the heart starves for oxygen and heart cells die.

Today's weigh in: 186Lbs

Unfortunately I gained two pounds since last week, which I'm not exactly happy about. I've been eating regularly, and have been eating healthy, but the scale seems to hate me at the moment. This week I'm just posting one photo, one that's cute in nature and is animal themed. To be honest, I'm not in the mood today to look for thinspirational photos, as I just found out one of my cousins passed away. With that said, this weeks blog hop will be simple. Good luck everyone, and stay strong.
