Hi there! My name is Chrissy, and I am in the process of getting my insurance to approve surgery. I found your blog and have to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed reading every entry. It is wonderful to see someone my own age go through the process. At lease I am getting a heads up on what to expect. So, congratulations to you on your wonderful accomplishment and thanks for sharing it!

Sorry you're having a bummy time AJ. But this is all transitional, and things will change soon!

Good for you on the gym! I'm soooooo bad, I don't do much along the lines of exercise at all. Just whatever activity we do on the weekend. I really need to get my butt in gear and start doing something more regularly.

2008-11-07T12:10:00.000-06:00

I can't believe people would e-mail you to censor yourself on your own blog. If those people are reading this, get a clue, a life, a hobby, something. While I don't agree with probably most of your political views, that doesn't mean I get upset and e-mail you to shut up on your own blog! Geez! People never cease to amaze me. Although if I were you, I'd be more interested in who Rouge is and how hot they think you are!!! =)

Well said. Apparently we don't agree politically but we do agree on one thing - you're hot! ;-)

2008-11-05T16:47:00.000-06:00

You know AJ under Bush, we've had higher taxes, higher inflation, less jobs, and a worse than stagnant economy. It was truly a sad (couple) of days in America when he was elected. It's great that we somehow managed to survive eight years of hell. I can't understand how so many people were fooled by a wolf in idiot's clothing. Today I feel PROUD of our country, and am thankful that the dark days are behind us.

Be prepared for higher taxes, higher inflation, less jobs and a stagnant economy. It will truly be a sad day in America but I am hopeful that we can somehow survive four years of hell. I can't understand how so many people can be fooled by a wolf in sheep's clothing. I feel deep remorse for our country and the dark days ahead.

Hello-- I came upon your site when I googled "gastric bypass and postsecret." I have a similar experience with WLS blogged on my web. I even was "downsized" and wrote about it...uncanny. Would love to talk... Hang in there, sweetie! -Emily

2008-10-28T20:40:00.000-05:00

First I'd like to say that I've been keeping up with your blog because I am having RNY in exactly two weeks and you've been a remarkable comfort to me (especially because we are nearly the same age and I, too, am a Midwestern girl - Missouri, to be exact... as well as a staunch Obama supporter.) I've been a silent observer to this point, but I just had to say how sorry I am about your job. There's no getting around the fact that being unemployed when you were not planning to be unemployed sucks, but you are clearly so very intelligent and resourceful and someone out there (despite the shambles of this economy) is going to be thrilled to snag you. In my personal experience, these things eventually turn out for the best - you end up getting another job that you love a lot more, or you make a move you wouldn't have otherwise. And for f*ck's sake, get thee to an unemployment office! -Sarah

Oh AJ! Didn't you just move there for that job? Maybe this means that you can go where your guy is? At least that would be a positive, right?

2008-10-24T13:50:00.000-05:00

Yeah, I understand cup sizes. But usually most people's boobs shrink more than that. My boobs may be actually smaller, but proportionally, they are bigger.

Your boobs are probably the same size, or a little...

2008-10-24T11:52:00.000-05:00

Your boobs are probably the same size, or a little smaller, but you went down around the band.

Cup size is determined by the difference from the band size to the fullest part of the breast. So if your girls stand out 1 inch from your chest, that's an A cup. 2 inches is a B cup, and so on.

So if your band size is significantly smaller, but your boobs have shrunk only a small amount, it makes since that your cup size would go up a little or stay the same.

Me, I've gone from a 42 D to a 38 D. Back when I was a thin person (when I was 18 or 19), I wore a 34 DD, but my boobs were probably smaller than they are now.

Confused yet?

I would love to get hit on, just once like that. I...

2008-10-24T09:20:00.000-05:00

I would love to get hit on, just once like that. I mean...I have only ever been called fat or ugly so i don't think i would know what to do.

so congrats...as a former fatty I get this sort of ego boost.

Congrats, I think.

2008-10-23T19:51:00.000-05:00

Wow! That's the kind of thing only a formerly fat girl can truly appreciate. The only time a man ever yelled at me from a vehicle, he moo'ed and called me Bessie. I would *love* it if a man wolf whistled at me...just once! It may set Women's Lib back a few years...but I'll take it!
