    Default new here, but not to the business

    Ok, So this might end up being a *tiny* bit longer of a post than I wanted it to be...but I REALLY need an impartial opinion...and my friends and family can't really do that.
    My name is Arianna, I live in canada and I started dancing when I was 18. I am 5'2" and I weighed 100lbs when I started @ my club.
    I had to quit the club 2 yrs ago because I found out I had cancer and needed treatment.
    I'm 24 now, cancer free and 30 lbs heavier than I was when I worked @ the club.
    I want to go back!!
    I miss performing sooooo much.
    I miss my regulars, and I really miss the money.
    I met with my old manager last week to see if I could go back and he said that I most certainly could (back in the day, I was their most featured house girl) but I'd be better off to lose a few (20) pounds or so...
    I don't think I look bad @ all...I'm healthy and not overweight by any means, but now, he has given me a bit of a complex about how I look.
    I guess I'm afraid that I will just be humiliated by going back thinking that I'm still just as attractive as I was when I worked there.
    He didn't hesitate to let me come back because I brought in ALOT of regulars during the day shift and alot of them actually stopped coming in after I left...

    I guess my question is, would I be making a fool of myself to go back with an extra 30 lbs of weight and still expect to make the same kind of money that I used to?
    Is he seeing something about my body that I'm not?
    Of course all of my friends and family won't say anything...they all say that I'm beautiful...blahblahblah...
    I just don't want to walk into an ambush that might potentially ruin my self esteem...


    ???

    Attached is a picture of what I look like now....the first reply to this post will be a pic of what i looked like back then

    Sorry you've had a rough period there. I know too many people that have been afflicted with cancer , but they always come out stronger and with a brighter outlook on the future.

    "Is he seeing something about my body that I'm not?" pish posh. Go for it, you were and STILL are gorgeous!

    I agree - go for it. Over time you change anyway... but you still look just as beautiful as two years ago. Good luck.

    You are gorgeous! I'd go back and not worry about what he has to say about things. Plus when you start dancing again, your fitness level will go way up and weight won't be anything of an issue.
    Good luck and keep us all posted!

    Congrats on beating your cancer challenge. IMHO you look great right now. However, if your clubowner specifically made a comment about your weight, he may have his reasons. After all, you don't want to risk an adverse reaction from your former regulars who might mentally "demote" you from the former hottest chick in the club down to "average" dancer status. But these sort of issues are very club specific, so only you can judge.

    B-E-A-Utiful in2it... need a full body pic. to determine the weight thing, but weight aside, who CARES?!! There are about 3 255+ lb. girls at my club who make GREAT money. A couple of the regs. will pass up 10 "barbie dolls" without blinking and spend a couple hundred on the "heavy" girls. I'm not saying you're "heavy" at all! NO NO NO, you're gorgeous! I'm just saying that weight shouldn't be a factor you should just go for it, and like hardkandee said, those "extra" pounds will melt away after a few weeks on the pole.

    wOwZa!
    well, I guess if I needed any reassurance as to how good of an idea it would be to go back to work, I definitely got it from y'all...
    After I wrote that post today, I decided to go out and do a little "feel better" shopping...after all, I DO need new outfits for work next week right?
    That made me feel a TON better cause I ended up running into an old friend from the club that I used to work with...she said she couldnt wait for me to come back to work again...and that my best dayshift customer Joe, still asks about me every once in awhile...she said she'd be sure to tell him that i'm on my way back
    So, needless to say, i'm REALLY looking forward to going back to work...and rakin in the cash...hehehe
    I'm meeting with my boss tomorrow to get my license renewed...
    I know i'll definitely have some stories about my 1st night back in 2 years!!! lol
    i cant wait to let you all know what happens
    *kisses*

    There is something very Charlize Theron about your face. Just lovely! If you miss performing then I think you should get back up on that stage and do your thing !

    Congrats on beating the cancer and best wishes that it stays away. Now for being overweight from the picture i can not tell the body but the face is beautiful both before and after and if you weighed 100 then you weigh about 130 now and that is NOT fat ???although if the manager mentioned it specifically he might resent the fact that you did not listen to him as most not all but most like to feel that their word is law but the way your face looks is absolutely beautiful so you should have no problems getting a lot of your regs back as I am sure when you left they were concerned

    Welcome to the board and have a great career
