    Tummy Tuck?

    If you don't mind me asking, was it just a tummy tuck or was it a lower body lift? And how much did it cost? I'm pretty sure I'll want a lower body lift after : )

    Hey don't be discouraged! Some people are short! Look at how much weight you've lost and be PROUD - you should be!

    Google is not the place to go for a question as serious as this. Call your physician. Every medical doctor I've seen and every book I've read on the subject says any carbonation is dangerous to the integrity of your pouch. As time passes, you will either be gradually stretching it out by breaking the rules on occasion, or maintaining its size by following the rules. If your surgeon says its ok, then ask him or her in what quantities and frequency. Don't leave it to a stranger on a forum like me or a random Google search result to give you the right answer. All I can tell you is what I've learned from books and doctors and my bariatric support group.
  7. Is that slow? Lol that is freaking awesome! Doesn't seem slow to me! What do you think is average?
  8. No probs! Good luck!!
  9. Assuming you're in the U.S., FMLA is the Family and Medical Leave Act that forces your employer, by law, to give you up to 12 weeks (if I'm remembering correctly) off of work (unpaid) but it protects your job, employers can't hold your time off against you in performance evals, and your insurance coverage must extend the length of your time off, even though you're not working. You can lose your job if you don't use it (because them your employer is within their rights). More info: http://www.dol.gov/whd/fmla/#.UMPXGtG9Kc0
  10. New post on my blog about setbacks. Ughhh discouraging http://www.myrouxeny.com/2012/12/07/setbacks/

  11. You really do look great Kaley Ann I'm sorry if I came off judgmental towards you as well. Congrats on all your success and hard work!
  12. None of us are saying its okay. Which one of us has done that? We're telling her she can do it, she can make the right choices. I need to withdraw from this. Maybe we need to agree to disagree : )
