I was reposting an old blog entry about my hair loss. Hands down the worst/funniest thing I did was buy this cheap wig from eBay. This is one of the worst photos I took of myself and hate posting it but hey, laughter gets us over many speed bumps. I am uploading this photo with my hands over my eyes. while maybe just one

Thank you Kathy, you gave me my first authentic smile of the day:-) Men and their love of long blonde hair! With the hat, it actually doesn't look too bad:-)

I am sure there are many, but the silliest thing I can think of right now is my eyebrow obsession. I have had them colored, waxed, shaved and plucked. I have A LOT of different shades of eyebrow pencils. I stare at other women's eyebrows and if I like them I even ask what they use and where to get it. Every time I have a doctor's appt. I get a little eyebrow/makeup lesson from the receptionist. Gravity is pulling EVERYTHING down, for some reason I have a silly obsession with keeping my eyebrows up!

Mine is more of the dumbest thing I ever said about weight loss....

I was sooo frustrated about not losing weight during "dieting" and regular exercise that I jokingly started saying I was just going to eat raw pork for a tapeworm so that I could lose weight.

A couple of months later I got food poisoning. Bad. So bad the doctor thought I had Hep B or C and ran a whole bunch of tests. Nope just bad bean sprouts on a salad roll. Even dumber, when asked if I ate something bad I told him no-but the bean sprouts on my salad roll looked a little old so I ate around them....

I was at the hospital forever trying to re-hydrate which was so hard. I told the doc it was karma for my comment about the tapeworm and that I would never bad self-talk myself ever again.

The things we do to try and lose weight. I remembered after surgery and was not able to eat much I would lay there and watch the Food Network. How nuts is that? I think I was in mourning.

I watched Food Network every day for 6 weeks morning to night. Gave me a new respect for food!
