  1. Butter I wish I was recovering so quickly. I will try running again this week. Butt just still hurts.
  2. We are so serious telling these shaper stories, but I have literally hurt myself laughing.
  3. I could not eat for a few months after my LBL. It is getting a little better. I lost weight. Worried my PS because he said I needed to EAT! I an still having problems, but I am sure it will improve with time. I am sure our bodies just craves what it needs. :-)
  4. You could also use it as a cologne, but people might get the wrong idea. Ha ha. Feel better soon!
  5. You look great Jessica!
  6. When I was down to my goal weight, a woman came into the gym for the first time weighing about 290lbs. She had on a skirt, t-shirt and tennis shoes. She sat on a recliner exercise bike. She stayed on it for 15 min. She came in regularly for 8 months. Fast forward - One day I went up to her and told her how good she looked and how much weight she had lost. (That was my first time talking to her although we had seen each other many times) She started to cry. She told me she has decided that day was going to be her last time at the gym, because she felt she had made no progress. She dried up her tears and told she will continue to come to the gym. She did and continued to lose weight. Although I am in a skinny body now, I will alway know how it feels to be fat. Now when I see someone working hard to lose weight, I try to say something encouraging. You never know what might help.
  7. I'm bumpy too
  8. Big lol! Sometimes when she is about to visit, I just do not have the energy to do anything but lay down.
  9. Although we may not think we change with our weigh loss, we really do. Our husbands can see it. Our change is for the better, and sometimes it just take our husbands a little while to come up to speed and appreciated out new bodies and the positive changes we have made for ourselves.
  10. I usually wrap one of those ab sweat exercise wraps around my waist, before I put on my shaper. It helps! I can't breath, or eat, or talk, but I'm looking sexy. Then I put on my high heels, and my toes hurt, my feet hurt and I can't walk, but hey, I'm looking sexy!
  11. I stopped taking my Mg, which my Dr had recommended. I need to start back. THANKS!!!
  12. Thank for the encouragement. I really needed to hear that. WELCOME!!
  13. Dr Victor Gutierrez in Tijuana Mexico. He is a Board Certified plastic surgeon and also a medical doctor. He is very highly educated and a gifted artist. He is also very friendly, warm and super caring. http://www.dr-victorgutierrez.com
  14. Wow, I am experiencing the same thing. I wake up around 4am every morning. Using herbs help me sleep till 5am. On occasions a very small glass of red wine helps to relax my muscles and my racing mind. I can sleep all night then. When I am desperate, kava kava root power. Use very sparingly! I may use kava once every 3 months, or if I am having muscle spasms.
  15. I suggested to use a measuring tape, but in all truthfulness I am addicted to the scale. I guess there are worse things I could be addicted to. Food, drugs, an ex-husband. LOL :-)
  16. Shaun T is great! Insanity is insane! It help me build muscle. Never mind the scale. Use a measuring tape. Happy workouts! :-)
  17. I know everyone is different when it comes to price. I paid $9600.00 This price was quoted to me last year December 2012. I had my surgery 4 months ago in June 2013.
  18. How are you feeling Cowgirl Jane?
