Fat Camp

Along with the CG hair life change, I'm also looking at a lifestyle altering bariatric procedure. My boyfriend has one... then I wanted one... but my mom was influenced by our talks about it and got one first. I'm kinda jealous. She's lost 17 lbs so far. I am extremely jealous - you know, seeing as I had to gain 10 for the doctor to guarantee me a "YES." So now I'm fat and in the waiting process. It's really a pain - everywhere. I can't do that same things I used to because I've gained this extra 10 lbs... not to mention the fact that it's extremely unhealthy. But yeah, I'm waiting for the surgery date for my lap band. My boyfriend lost a total of 85 lbs and gained about 30 back because he was not eating properly; therefore, it was like he was anorexic. He totally isn't but when you don't eat what you can just to lose weight... whatever.

So I have to go to these meetings where we have group sessions about being fat and how the band or gastric bypass has affected our lives so we can learn from others. That's tonight.

Anyhow, Saturday night I did the Curly Girl Big Cut. It's basically where you cut off most of your hair - the dead part that will never have another chance of revival and then "start over" with fresh, relatively healthy hair. I found that my second day hair isn't so fabulous if I don't gel it and wear a cap or something. It's still not to it's full curl potential but it is seriously way better than it was. Less frizz, less stringy bits and the hairdresser basically just evened me out with a few layers. Not poof balls layers - just regular people, my hair will lay nicely layers. And this is a girl from the Haircuttery. She is very talented. She listened to what I wanted and explained what would happen if she did certain things. I think I only have one picture of me since then but it was seriously totally worth it and I will take another picture either this afternoon or tonight. So this that one picture. It was with my phone so it's kinda blurry but I love the way the cut came out. And as you can see I have lost of curl at the bottom when I previously has frizzy strangles.
