Celebrating in Style
Well, our women's retreat happened to fall on the same weekend as the week of my one year post op appointment with my weight loss doctor. So I guess it was fitting that I marked my little moment here in time by signing up to do things I would have never dreamed of as a fat person (just for the mere fact I wouldn't have seen my toes.
First it was zip lining. This is me getting harnessed up. Note to self: NOT a good fashion statement. The harness squished everything and made me look bigger in places I'm really not in normal clothes. Defininitly a motivator for plastics.
This is me after I was harnessed. Sooo not feeling sexy, but I was laughing:
And this is me...third from the left....right before I completely freaked out
and had to be peeled off the ledge:
Next was the "Solo Challenge", which NOBODY would tell me what it was. See the woman on the pole?
See the trapeze bar? Climb pole, stand on pole, jump. HELL no!
The last thing I had signed up for was the rock wall. My cabin mate Becky talked me into it:
"Really???"
That's a happy face, harness-squashed 'n all!
