    MommaDawn got a reaction from VickiCat in New to the group - got my date and now I'm getting nervous   
    My internist told me that this surgery has come so far that procedures used 3 years ago are like in the dark ages compared to today. She said surgeries are less risky than knee surgery. This put my mind at rest. Hope it does for you also.

    MommaDawn reacted to chunkyloverlovesyou in I get to go clothes shopping, not happy about it   
    I lost 17 lbs of boob and knee fat. Still have a ginormous arse, but at least I can slap my knees together and hit bone. Still have several chins to lose, I am a bare chested fat face freak....my wrinkles are coming in quite nicely though . Guess these are the things people don't like to talk about post surgery, it's the truth. No regrets though, just venting.

    MommaDawn reacted to SugarFreeMe in Coworkers talking.. "she had something done"   
    Handle it straight away and head on, avoiding the questions will only lead to more speculation, more whispers and more talking. Try this:
    "Thank you for noticing and asking. You're correct, I have done something, I took control of my life and health, something that isn't easy, but I'm determined. It's nice to know that my hard work is showing. I am however uncomfortable talking with anyone about it with the exception of those closest to me like my family. Thank you for your understanding."
    Flash your biggest, brightest smile and walk away. If you're confident in your deliver, they won't have reason to question you again. If they continue talking about you behind your back, talk with a manager or HR. Don't let them undermine your hard work though.

    Take the bread away.
    Dump salt, pepper or a little Water on whatever is sitting there before it's picked up if you're done.
    Ask for a box and bag with dinner. Box and bag the left overs before you even get started.
    Ask for a salad plate up front so you can better "measure" what you do plan to eat
    Bring a tooth brush and go brush your teeth when you're finished.
