Body Shapers
I was wondering about that and since my bladder works faster than me getting there, there is bound to be an accident. I will have to test it out first see how fast I can possible flip it down especially when I have a dress on. Should have thought about that before I bid on it. OH well it will all work out. Yes it is the long leg one too

Skinny bitches
When I am checking out the hoochies it's cause I cannot believe what they are wearing half the time. Like having the thong hanging out over their pants or no bra but boobs the size of grapes. Or the shorts so far up the A$$ that it a whole new meaning on the word wedgie.

I have been denied by BCBS.....
I cannot believe that BC/BS is stating that when in other states the cover it. For instance BCBS of Nebraska covered it before 2005 I did mine in 2004 and they paid. I know every state and employer Policy is different. I would call and talk with them and point that out and see what they say. I'ts worth a shot

What does everyone do for a living?
I work in the EDI Dept for a large Agriculture Company. I reconile Ag Sales. I wish I could be a stay at home mom with the prices for child care these days not to mention missing out on all the childs first it's pretty depressing. I have been playing with the notion of taking classes to become a realtor for quite some time now. My husband is a Pipe Layer for new sites.

Joke Thread
A man boarded an airplane and took his seat. As he settled in, he glanced up and saw the most beautiful woman boarding the plane. He soon realized that she was heading straight towards his seat. As fate would have it, she took the seat right beside his. Eager to strike up a conversation he blurted out "Business trip, or pleasure?" She turned, smiled and said, "Business. I'm going to the Annual Nymphomaniacs of America Convention, in Chicago." He swallowed hard. Here was the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen sitting next to him, and she was going to a meeting for nymphomaniacs! Struggling to maintain his composure, he calmly asked, "What's your business role at the convention?" "Lecturer," she responded. "I am the lead lecturer where I use information that I have learned from my own personal experiences to debunk some of the popular myths about sexuality." "Really," he said, "and what kinds of myths are there?" "Well, she explained, "one popular myth is that African- American men are the most well-endowed of all men, when in fact it is the Native American Indian who is most likely to possess that trait". "Another popular myth is that Frenchmen are the best lovers, when actually it is the men of Jewish descent that are the best". "I have also discovered that the lover with the absolutely best stamina is the Southern Redneck..." Suddenly the woman became a little uncomfortable and blushed.... "I'm sorry," she said, "I shouldn't really be discussing all this with you. I don't even know your name." "Tonto," the man said, "Tonto Goldstein, but my friends call me Bubba."

Need Help Deciding
Welcome T.J For fast and Rapid Weight loss then the RYN would be for you BUT I am a lurker on Obesity.com and have been following the stories of some people that have not done well with the Surg are having major complications they have been hospitalized so many times. Yes there are some complications with the band but those are minor compared to having your insides rerouted then again rerouted only not to get it resolved. With the band if anything were to go wrong I know that it could be removed and my stomach will go back to it's normal postion. Best of luck to you on what ever you decide. The first step is the hardest and you have already taken that:)
