Somebody to Love Me

and my day has been made

Jabba Strikes Back: All White Affair

huge shout out to my mother for helping me find this dress hours before my trip to Miami for carnival 2k11. I looked for weeks and no one had an all white dress.

As soon as we walked into the store the women there were so helpful. Lately when i go clothes shopping people take one look at me and let me know early that they don't carry anything in my "size". I usually don't let things like that bother me but lately it's been getting out of hand. I'm almost 30 lbs over weight but I've been doing well with sticking to my regimen and eating healthier. (lost 7 lbs in a week by cutting out my salt intake)

Miami was a blast but I dont have many pics due to the fun I was having. I need to invest in a camera..=/

slowly but surely i'll get there

a bit of an update on the weight loss. i gained 5 more lbs after losing 7 ( what a drag) but now things seem to be back in order. what can i say i love fried food (no excuse)

Mini Vacation

these past few months have been bananas, crazy over time with a work load out of this world. so much to learn in such a short period of time.

where should i go before my trip to bim (barbados for crop over wooooot!)? boston, ny, cali, or maybe just drive down to miami for a few days. eh, i need to get the ef up out of florida. its backwards racism is really getting to me.

and now you know..

Weight Loss

I'd to lose about 15-25 lbs over the summer (dr said im 20 lbs over weight =() So i thought I'd set up something more realistic and lose 10 lbs a month. Nothing too stressful, both long and short term goals. Within my 1st week i lost 5 lbs alone from changing my eating habits and diet (smaller portions, nuts and fruit) I may reach my goal sooner than i thought!

wish me luck!

Movie Time

I went to the movies to see Pirates of the Caribbean solo today and I must say I quite enjoyed it. The movie was cool but not having someone to constantly ask you questions during the movie was AWESOME. I'm not antisocial i just enjoy ME time =)

Thought I'd share a photo (love that shirt)

Embrace the Baldness

I've actually been bald since feb 14th lol, but better late than never. i shaved my head once last year and let it grow out for about 7 months. unfortunately my hair grew back in patches :'( i later then came to realize it's going to take time and patience for my hair to grow back evenly. along with a healthy diet and proper exercise.

i now need to get used to going to the barber every 2 weeks to get it shaved. and i need to find he right oils and butters to moisturize my scalp. i noticed a few dry areas. mainly where my hair was thin. strangely enough people ask me almost every day "what in the world would posses you to do such a thing?!" or i have those who are feeling extra bold to try and rub my scalp. i mean really? you've never seen a bald head before? does the shape and shininess fascinate you that much?

i honestly like it. less to do in the morning. just rub a bit of olive and rosemary oil on and i'm good to go. i think i can pull this look off (like i have a choice) =)
