  BUT.. BUT... BUT... I did stop for a minute to snap pics of my shoes to post on Heidi's shoe thread on the main board here.... I do love shoes ... and I do have a walk-in shoe closet and a full attic for a clothes closet ... thank you DS (my dearests son) who was my builder of my awesome whacked closets ... LOVE YOU! ... if you would just apply yourself you would go sooooooooo far... but mommy loves you anyway ... now when oh when are you going to strip and redo that fugly floor in the den ... I mean the materials have been sitting waiting going on 6 years now ... SIGH...

ANYHOW ... my weekend AW'ing picture share... this is me starting July 2012 ..

and I put my shirt on bass-awkward (ass-backward) just because I wanted the design in the front ... DATs the way I wore it! Now I am getting sick and tired of wearing my hair short and not having my long pieces or lace fronts on ... ..

I love love love this number .... wore it to first Sunday service yesterday...




and I took pics with my clothes on and the tags on them too ... going from a size 4-5X and a whooping highest recorded weight of 327 pounds and maintaining steadily in a range of 0-2-4 and XS-S is awesome in my book .... on 7/5/2012 I will be celebrating 5 years and 5 months post RNY .. I am living it and loving it like it was the first day even now!!!

I love love love this Ann Taylor's piece... Size 0 no stretch WOOT!

On Saturday I crashed after doing Samba in heels and Zumba toning right after... then KenKen took me supposedly bird watching in the friggin' woods off the trail ... with the two sets of binoculars I bought for both of us ... I saw NADA! there were too many animal sounds and rustling in the grass enough to spook both of us back onto the trail ... that and the fact that we forgot to remove the caps from our new binocular lenses ... dufus much? 

Can you tell that my shirt is on bass-awkward?

On Saturday I went walking on the beach in the evening with my awesome Bisou Bisou dress... I had to take the bodice in though ... and shorten the straps a bit so they would stay on my shoulders...

and I put on this 2 piece that my boss gave me .. she gave it to me a couple months before my surgery... she had gone to the islands and the bodice was too small for her ... she is tiny but has awesome boobs ... and I never ever dreamed I would have ever gotten in to this ... this is my third time wearing it ... and I wore it for a stroll on the beach with Al over the weekend...

Awesome post! Did you end up getting plastic surgery? You look wonderful. I love shoes, too. LOVE that white dress with the silver shoes...WOW. I am not afraid of colorful clothes, either. It shows our personality. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Brenlee ... I did have an insurance paid panniculectomy through my Anthem PPO 18 months after surgery ... and a couple years after I had an awesome gift of a modified brachioplasty by my DH, children and uncle ... 

I love love love color and I love love love clashing stripes/florals/dots and diagonals ... always did ... Thank you for allowing me to share...
