    A couple days behind,, yes I’m still freezing all the time all year long. Clothes do not help the only thing really is a hot shower or submerging in tub Somehow other than once before my surgery I have not been to see a dietitian - so much for that center of excellence. I am thinking about a dietitian to help me a adjust to next stage - tmenopause Then I recognize probably not sure don’t think... honestly I went from WLS to plastics and now recognize to some degree I need to focus on other things. I need a hobby so i’m signing up for pottery classes

    Hoping the lymphatic massage helps with the swelling. Thinking marijuana will help overall with a relaxing. Legal here in DC too.

    So after my arm lift I stopped growing underarm hair. At all. I always had super light hair but now it is gone. What about you??? My arm lift was Sept 2018.

    Stella S got a reaction from Slownstedy in Am I losing my mind...   
    As a person changes and the perception of self changes relationships too adjust. Can’t even imagine that the adjustment comes with exciting change and the part that is painful and uncomfortable. I would not know what to do if he had changed as much as I have - even the good change. My hubs and I took on challenges and activities together - I think having goals together helped. Bottom line is if you don’t find a way to come together you must. Love Green Tea remark to come from aplace of observation awareness and curiosity.

    My process was extremely short as I was private pay as well maybe three weeks. My surgeon did not require as many steps as yours... I think it’s OK fast is good I pondered on the surgery for years. I do not regret a single penny or a single moment. Best of luck to you.

    This thread is great. The compression garment minimized chaffing but I skipped the bra for a bit. Best to all in healing. 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
