Hello all,
Since my last post....little has changed. I still go up and down a couple pounds every now and then. Today I was 126#. The only significant change...due to weight loss...is I had a Breast Lift with a small implant...360cc. I thought...and my plastic surgeon...told me I'd gain a few pounds...but I didn't. Yay! Because I feel like I have 2 bowling balls on my chest! My boobs haven't looked this good...since I was 19yo. I am well into my 50's now....and feel fantastic!
I hope all is well with each and everyone of you.
Take care.

I made my own Ring Snuggies...out of Oxygen Tubing. I also fused it together by melting the plastic together....so it couldn't fall off.
Many years ago...I got engaged (didn't make it down the aisle ...and took my ring into Zales...to have it sized...and the diamond was switch out. I could never prove it...but trust me...it was not the diamond we bought. So I refuse to have my wedding ring resized...even though my diamonds are laser inscribed.

Mine is...Sales Associates. Mostly in higher end retail stores. When I was heavier...and needed help...no one was ever around. Now that I am much thinner...I have sales people (men and woman) falling all over me. I can't take 5 steps without a sales person asking me..."is there anything I can help you with." I have lost and gained weight many times...and this is something I have noticed each time I lose weight. It makes me sad for my heavier self. And anyone else that is discriminated against like this. My income level does not change....with my weight.

Nope, you're not the only one. Took me forever to figure out why mine ran. It's like my nose is crying tears. Has something to do with the Vagus Nerve.....so I'm told.

Sorry...not sorry, lol. Only the truth was stated. You don't need to make an announcement regarding your surgery...but when *asked*...you should tell the truth. Anything less, is a lie....and deceptive.

That is interesting. I feel like what you are saying is right, that when I was larger they left me alone. I will have to start paying attention to see what happens as I lose weight.

My BMI on surgery day was 26 (?)... I am 5' 6" and on surgery day I weighed 161 lbs. I had no comorbidities. My insurance company paid for my surgery. At first I was denied...but my doctor fought for me....then I was approved. I have the denial letter and the approval letter....they are dated 9 days apart. On my initial doctor visit my BMI was 37...but between that date and my surgery date...I lost approx 50 lbs on my own.
I had my surgery 6-27-14....by October, 2014...I had reached my goal weight of 130. And now, I go up a pound...down a pound. Today I was 126.
I couldn't be happier!

Thank you! I feel so much healthier too...not just physically but emotionally too. That is just as important in my opinion and something I didn't expect. And yes, I enjoy having a collar bone too.....and hip bones.....

Congrats, lvvsmun. You look beautiful in all three photos...albeit healthier in the last two. You and I are basically the same size....and when I look at your Dream Goal picture....my eyes are drawn to your Collarbone. It's always been something I've been drawn to in pictures, and in person. Just wanted to say...you have a great collarbone! Lol. Love mine too!

The sleeve will eliminate your overeating. You just simply CAN NOT eat the same amount of food you do now....for emotional reasons or not. I could out-eat most everyone I know (I loved the taste of food and had zero will power) and now...I just simply can't...nor want to. Don't try to over think this...it will be easier than you think.
At least this was my experience. I hope it will be as easy for you, too.

That's awesome! Thanks for your response, Sanstan! I hope I reach my goal that quick! ????
