Just Curious To Know.....
If any SMs out there have attended a family Adult Skid function , with no real care or interest in the skid or event itself, but just to support your DH and knowing that you will be looking and feeling fabulous compared to anyone else there ?? ( BM, extended family, etc )
I hope this doesn't sound too strange, just wanting to know if you have done it, and how it turned out for you. I may have the chance ( lucky, lucky me 
) to do this and is it really wrong that a little bit of me likes the idea of ' showing ' off my new look AND my 100 lb + weight loss ??

yes, i had to go to sd's
yes, i had to go to sd's graduation and open house, and i really didn't want to. i got to miss most of the graduation ceremony, including her getting her diploma, because bs then 2 was being loud and disruptive, so i had to take him outside to play. i just kept to myself at her open house. she was too busy soaking up all the attention and enjoying being queen of the day to start anything with me. i was still glad when it was over.
We must be sisters . . .Cause
We must be sisters . . .Cause I just love doing this
Me too! I take very good care
Me too! I take very good care of myself..Crazo does not. I go dressed, for success and show, to all the skids functions. I love it when Crazo's husband the door mat just stands there and stares at me
evil I know, but it is the only revenge I have. I do not speak to her ever!
100lbs wow! that is impressive.
Rock it Girl!!!
I think it's triplets. BM is
I think it's triplets.
BM is a decade younger than I am. Now I look every day of my age - BUT I am well groomed. Even if I don't have on full makeup and have my hair pulled back I still look 500x better than her.
No magic formula, I'm
No magic formula, I'm afraid..... Low fat, healthy food, really a Vegetarian diet, I suppose, and as I had no spare money for Gyms and PTs, I became a walker/ jogger..... You get good results and it's free !!
Didn't happen overnight, but most of the people at this skid event I have not, thankfully, seen for 3 years or more, so they would be shocked.....
I keep on weighing up ( excuse the pun !! ) the pros and cons of it all.....
The evil SM in me, says I
The evil SM in me, says I should go and revel in it , as one reply here mentioned, doesn't hurt that BM is short ,slobby and chubby, and sd has gained half of what I have lost, easily. I don't care if that sounds bitchy, but when you have been blamed for stuff over the years , disengaged , as I have, and worked DAMN hard for the weight loss , well, if it was any other event that wasn't skid related I would be there , looking fabulous!!! }:) }:) }:)
I'm not planning to try and
I'm not planning to try and steal the skid event, not my style, and I've never needed to be the look at me, look at me person, craving the attention, it's a big event, so I'll be too busy enjoying it with DH to care about the daggers being thrown at me by skids, and skid family....
You are right, not your
You are right, not your style. But a beautiful, confident woman will be what everyone see's when they look at you.
Beauty is only on the outside if it is on the inside...you obviously already know that.
Have fun, and be a great support to your hubby. He will love it, and love and admire you all the more for being there with him.
Congratulations on your
Congratulations on your weight loss! I wouldn't be too consumed with what other people thought of me even the Skids.
I would dress appropriately, smile alot and have a good time with your DH.
Not trying to turn this into
Not trying to turn this into a Diet thread, but I ate a big selection of foods, fruit and veg, potatoes, a little rice, not so much Bread, but curries, and soups, etc. For me it was cutting out sweets and Chocolate, the Alcohol ( now only special occassions ) and learning portion control , I had bad habits, and was a emotional and binge eater . I re-educated myself to learn that food isn't a reward but fuel to keeping me looking fabulous and healthy for the rest of my life......
Congratulations on your HUGE
Congratulations on your HUGE weight loss! I'm right there with ya! I've lost over 100 from Jan 2011 to June 2012. I put about 20 back on from June till now, but I'm working on getting that back off. Went from a size 24/26 to an 8, now hovering around 10/12. Feels amazing doesn't it????
Show off your new self wherever and whenever you get the chance! Be proud of your accomplishment!!!!
StepAside, my portion size
StepAside, my portion size was set I think for two hungry big men !! Lol !! Bad news !! I was shocked !! It's true what they say....what you shovel inside, you wear on the outside !! Now instead of a shovel, I just use a normal spoon !!
Flaunt your beauty! You are
Flaunt your beauty! You are proud and want some positive attention! Theres nothing wrong with that. It means a lot to the kids when attending their school functions so that should definitely be a priority. Good job! I am also on a weight loss after having my son and I agree about the walking/jogging!! Show it off!!
A weight loss always makes
A weight loss always makes you feel like you look great. (unless of course you are like my poor mother who was always underweight)
I am about 80 lbs lighter than I was 15 years ago (and I'm up about 15 right now). Even when I wear no makeup and have my hair pulled back with jeans on I feel like I look great. Part of it is attitude.
I do not 'relish' that sd is
I do not 'relish' that sd is very overweight now, it is just a fact.... Also, I think I mentioned in a previous post that DH ( and I ) had been blamed by BM in the past for 'letting' sd get big. That sd was never fat when she lived with BM, blah, blah..... Not sure how we let or made an 18 yr old do that and plus sd's new weight gain didn't happen until she had moved out. She is also an Adult and makes her own decisions about life and lifestyle ( food, health, etc )
I know how hard it is to lose the weight AND keep it off ......
I would do just about
I would do just about anything in the world to support my husband when he needed it.
