Ok, so if you don't know, this is my baby subject. I love to talk about this issue with no restraint. But, also know that this issue is really sensitive to others (and sometimes most times myself included). This issue is to give encouragement, sensitivity, knowledge, and just plain love to the issue of weight. Whether big, small, skinny or tall...we all live in the same world so we have to get used to the differences we have in each other.

Now, what's the skinny??

I know from friends and are "skinny" that they have just as many issues as big girls. They feel that they get the bad end of the stick as well. I personally don't see what the issue is...but they have one with the world. I think its because everyone feel that they are the "perfect" body walking around and they don't feel that way. Like I said before...this is why this forum is here...to give us help in understanding ALL areas in which we all live.

The BIG issue??

Do you feel that in this society big is not looked at as better???

What type of confidence do you pull from yourself when you come into an issue where you are feeling self-conscious while in public or around friends in private???

Please add as we go along and get deeper with the answers...

Love you's...

So, I went to the hospital right after work because during work my chest was hurting so bad I couldn't move. The Dr. said I'm gonna make it! (side note: if you have sever chest pains, you could possibly be having a heart attack/stroke, or be like me and strain a chest muscle) WHERE THEY DO THAT AT???

But seriously, I'm doing OK. I just... HURT really bad!

I am so in love with my new transition. I am learning so much about going natural and embracing the “natural” me. I'm seeing a new me evolve already with me trying different styles to cover up the new growth. I know I have a long way to go because of this “growth” issue. But I am praying that God and Dr. Miracle are going to pull through so that I can reach my goal.

Whats my goal you ask?

My goal is to BC on my birthday. But knowing that this process is going to be a tough one 3 months from now, so if I get anxious and want to give in and BC early, it will be on Dec. 31st or Jan. 1st so I can start 2011 on a new path.

But I had my first experience with Co-washing! It's not a bad thing. I woke up with much softer manageable hair. I'm so happy about this transformation (If you didn't get that hint already) I will try a braid-out this weekend and see if I can remember to post a picture of how it turned out.

You know what, I think I will post a pictorial of my transition, the good, bad and the undoubted UGLY stage...lol. Just another way to embrace this transition and who I really am by really being transparent. We shall see...its the remembering that's going to be the problem!

But, as I continue to transition and continue my countless hours of research, I will continue to keep everyone posted!

Much Love and blessings!
