Bumping my thread back into action.laugh


My contribution to the cause!

I read a profile that called us "bubbly". I really liked that, it was cute. But, I reeeeally want to be voluptuous, darn it! tears

Ok, what is the range that we are talking about here? I mean, when does "a few extra pounds" turn into "I have a loaf of bread hidden somewhere on me"? Frankly, I have seen people that claim to have a few extra pounds but really have a few extra people. Maybe I am just a little on the pessimistic side because I am very health / diet conscious. It just seems that the phrase is covering a larger spread than it should be...no pun intended. :)

Thats a good uestion and one posed before in part one actually....Im health conscious too... the reason for my few extra pounds IF I MUST EXPLAIN is because i had cancer 7 years ago.. cervical and uterine... total hysterectomy... everythings gone.. i DO NOT MISS IT I LOVE IT.. however one of the draw backs to that is surgical menopause and HRT (hormone replacement therapy) Which I AM NOT a canidate for due to the cancer ive already had the HRT first and foremost makes me sick... the one and only option for me is a shot once a month which INCREASES MY RISK OF GETTING BREAST CANCER BY 72%......NOT a number Im willing to live with.....however what i am willing to live with is the extra pounds and still having my boobs and being able to see my children grow into adults ... there now that we all know my medical history...

i have to say 20 to 30 pounds is a few extra to me... weighing 300lbs is NOT a few extra... JMO..hope I didnt offend anyone!!!!!!

You made some good points and certainly didn't offend me. I'm not 300 pounds, but I'm way more than a few extra pounds, thus I used the only other option...."heavyset". I probably have ran off men and will continue to do so by making sure they understand that I am a big girl. The last thing I want is some big understanding about weight. The guy I'm talking to now I actually gave a number....something I wouldn't dream about doing in the past. But heck, it's not something you can really hide if you honestly and sincerely plan to meet someone.

And wow, you've been through a lot girl! Hugs to you!

I have to laugh and glad you found humor in it too Missy - our outer shells are just that outer shells.

Some care about the packaging, I care about the contents.

But like I keep posting my disclaimer - this is my opinion and only speaking on myself.
