I've been feeling really restless lately..... like I need to do something crazy! Is anyone else feeling this way?? I went out and got my hair chopped off on Monday night, then went out last night and got an upper ear piercing, now I'm feeling a bit better.... but still a bit restless. I'm wondering if this is a normal part of the weight loss? Or whether it's a Winter is finally over thing?

I feel like this every day actually.  Your hair looks great by the way :)  I think it's pretty normal to feel this way as long as it is channeled healthily.  I have really long hair and have been thinking about chopping it off but then I know I'll cry lol.  I am very busy all day so that helps, but I have been feeling like I need new clothes, new hair, new hobbies, etc..  It's a huge change we are going through and I know this is all normal and things will settle down again soon.  I say as long as it makes you happy and it's harmless and you can afford it...have fun :)

I LOVE THE HAIR STEPHANIE! It is very cute! Love it, Love it, Love it!  I cut off my hair before going back to work post op. My nose piercing closed while in hospital...but now I'm just all about the tats.

Did I tell you I love the hair?  You look amazing !

LOL.... thank you , thank you, thank you!! How many tats do you have so far? Any plans yet on more? I'm trying to decide what I want to get next. I know I want to incorporate my surgeon's leaf from his logo, but I don't know what to put with it.

Restless is the word I was looking for. Your hair looks great BTW. I am so restless these days that I almost can't stand myself. I don't work and I don't drive so most days are spent at home. That was fine a while back but now I'm going nuts. It seems like I have to be doing something constantly. My hands have to be busy and so does my mind. Watching TV alone isn't enough to keep me occupied. I have to be surfing the net, or reading or working on the bills at the same time. I have much more energy than I used to and I think this is a part of that. I need a hobby. Seriously.

Thanks Karen :)  I feel that way too! I can't just sit and do one thing anymore!! Maybe it's all that pent up energy that makes me feel like I want to do something shocking!!

Next tat for me is going to be Dolphin's (in my dh and my totems). Anyway, not sure of where yet, thinking left ankle band with Dolphins jumping though waves.  Right ankle has Emmet Kelly (1st Ringling Brothers clown - Weary Willie).  Left Shoulder/Back is one my son designed (its on my profile pics).

I don't think I will re-pierce my nose, as it took almost a year to heal, as did my cartlidge. BUT I WILL GET A BELLY BUTTON PIERCING WHEN I START SHOWING IT OFF!!

How close to SW Washington are you Steph?
