I am writing to apologize for my outburst those many months ago when I logged on and you said
OOPS, you’ve gained 6 ounces!
Would you like to see a list of filling foods???
Somehow you knew that I needed Tough Love.
You knew how to keep me real...that the collective little bites of everything all day long added up to enough calories to sustain three construction workers, and you constantly reminded me that in my dotage I only require 3 calories a day.
I proudly come to apologize and thank you. No humbleness today. Today I own who I am.
A 57-year-old woman who is comfortable in her skin...
Albeit looser skin.
I post this photo today to affirm myself and to offer encouragement to any of my friends who desire to
Live Life Splendidly.
Even in one’s dotage.

Way to go, girl!!! Seems we have to wait till we reach the "magical" 50's to finally come to terms with our self image and much more. You look "faboolous, daling!" Wish I were so lucky!!
I'm not there yet, have too much weight to lose...not for aesthetics but for my health. This damn Lexapro just wouldn't let me lose the weight and just held on and on and on, so now I'm on a journey of clarity and losing about 100lbs.!!!!!!!!!
xxoo,
Georgina
You go, girl!! You look amazing! I hope I look half as beautiful as you when I am in my 50's. Actually, you remind me of a dear friend we just visited with who is in her 60's and looks just as fabulous!! Much love, Silke
Deb - you are dropdead gorgeous. :) I am trying VERY HARD to lose some weight for health reasons. I think I will just eat cardboard and drink water. Was cardboard listed on the filling foods list? :) xoxo Pam
Here's to Dotage, Hot Babes, and Hair Bleach!!! (and chocolate too!)
My skin seems to be doing it's own thing at the moment; I assume a few more years and it will have finished racing to see which part can reach my nether-regions first.
I am what I am.
I just want to be healthy, feisty, full of it and laugh a lot!
And make art.
And piss some poeple off.
Not you.
People I live around that are fuddy-duddies!!! >:}
You look FAB Dahling!!!!!
XXOO!!

P.S. to Pam---yes, shaved cardboard is on the list of filling foods. It's FIBER, and we NEED it at our age.

You cannot be 57. You lie! I demand to see your driver's license! Goodness, Deborah, you are one very beautiful, elegant, and sophisticated woman. You take good care of yourself, and it shows!
