  1. And @imdeborah ... I giggled a little at the "rectal fistula" comment...I'm just goofy like that! Haha
  2. Lol, thanks so much guys! I know I'm not obligated to tell anyone...but here's the deal, it's only like 15 of us that work there and we're all kinda close! And we talk about a lot if things, we don't even take breaks! Lol, we just all eat right there in the pharmacy, most of the time sharing food and stories. Cuz it's mostly girls, only 2 guys. So they'll DEFINITELY notice the difference and they will ask. I'm just not ready to tell!
  3. Yea, I got GOT too! And I even posted something before I read the entire thread!!! Geez....
  4. That does really suck...but LMAO @ the dolphin!!!
  5. I've been struggling with this! I'm still pre-op and both my parents know, my dad even went to the seminar and the consult with me, my 2 besties, and my aunt (who had the roux-en-y) and a cousin. Other than that, I've told no one. But I work at a pharmacy and I really don't want my co-workers to know...that's my biggest concern. Idk, what excuse I'm going to give for the off time I'll need to get the surgery or the meds I'll need afterward!!!! SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!!! I'm not that clever when it comes to making things up! Lol

  7. I'm 24 and hoping to have my surgery this summer too! My main concern is MY BOOBS *screams* I've always been top heavy, a DD since I was 13...and I'm soooooo scared that they're going to just be flab and I'll need a lift! My tummy kinda concerns me too!
