New Goals and Disappointments!

Well, how is everyone? I am OK. It has been almost 9 months since surgery, and I have lost about 133 pounds. I am still really, really big. I am 5'11". I say 5'11" because if I say 6', which is my actual height, it makes me seem super, super huge, like some sort of mutant. My doctor says an ideal weight for me is about 200 pounds. What? That is crazy! What women's ideal weight is 200?!?!?!?!?!? This is upsetting to me, because even if, by some miracle, I lose all my excess weight, I am still going to be like some gigantic horror movie creature. How did this happen? My mother is 5' tall and my father is 5'8". Anyway, since I am too old to become America's Next Top Model, a ballerina, or a Las Vegas Show Girl, and my previous goal of Roller Derby champ is much too labor intensive (and I can't skate), I have a new goal....professional wrestler. I think I can do it! I got the size, and check out the new pics in my profile! I already have arms like Gorgeous George. Well, when I am a famous GLOW girl, I guess you can say "you knew me when........." Good luck to everyone! I hope you don't end up with sides of beef for arms

Hey... good luck on your goal! I wish I felt like you do about your arms. Mine make me sick and always have. However, they are great to have, right? You looks great.

Yeah, my arms are pretty sickening, too, but I guess there is nothing I can do, so might as well get used to it. And jiggling them has become one of my sons favorite activities.

Carrie! I read your post twice and still didn't understand if you were sad, trying to be funny, or were just serious about your new goal. Anyway, I don't see a woman that is 6'0 as a mutant for sure. Looking at your pics, it's obvious that you are cute and also feminine girl. So what if you are taller than average American woman? If I had to choose b'ween being 5'0 or 6'0 , I'd pick the latter... seriously. I have a few friends who are 4'11-5'0, and they all suffer from issues related to their height, probably no less than you. I'm just over 5'7 and always wear high hills or platforms, and even though by doing that I always look taller than my DH ( he's 5'8''), it's something I feel comfortable with. As for wrestling....It's something that I wouldn't choose to for myself for many reasons. But if somebody see it fit for them and gets satifaction from it.... why the hell not? Good luck and best wishes to you. Rita

Rita, Not really too interested in wrestling, just trying to think of something big arms are good for. Thanks for the compliment. I definitely don't mind being taller than a man I am with, because all of my previous boyfriends have been shorter. I hope they just realize who has the power . Good luck and best wishes to you as well. Carrie

Carrie, I just want you to know that you are gorgeous! And I don't think you look at all like Gorgeous George! Your arms look good! Having muscle arms is way better than having huge hanging batwings! I think you are doing phenomenal with your weightloss! Look at you go! You are my hero! Lori PS. GLOW girls make lots of money!

Lori, Thanks so much fr your nice response! I think you are gorgeous as well. You look fantastic! You are my hero too! Carrie P.S. GLOW girls make a lot of money, but I am now thinking of something a little less labor-intensive (because I am lazy). Maybe mafia wife or the next Mrs. Donald Trump?

Carrie, you have such a great attitude! You crack me up! Thanks for the wonderful compliments! Have an AWESOME day! Lori
