Don't forget you're not supposed to lift stuff - the last thing you want is to get stranded somewhere with a bunch of junk you can't carry. I had two c-sections with similar restrictions and the 6 week recovery is nothing to fool around with. It is major surgery - consider making him watch on YouTube . At the very least, go over post operative instructions from your surgeon with him. If he's unwilling to seriously listen and agree to support you, you may need to throw him back and bait another hook Personally, I'd vote no on the event. But I'm up for surgery next week and still hedging on whether I'll be up to taking a group of squealing teen girls to an anime convention over a Halloween weekend.

Are you lactose intolerant? And/or is there lactose in the shake? Just wondering if there was anything special that might be bugging you. I seem to get more sensitive the older I get. Most of the whey Protein isolate is fine, but the casein and milk powder give me cranky stomach.

Seattle-ish Though we were stationed on Whidbey when I was a kid. I was originally scheduled for October, but they're supposed to move me up to the 28th.

You have to be what you are. Even a close-to-normal weight, I towered over my siblings and was always broad shouldered like the farm girl I was. Tough to be big and awkward when your little sister is extremely petite man bait . I'm looking forward to seeing how different I'll look without the extra weight (God willing!) but I've gotten over trying to be "cute". I can do striking, attractive and have delusions of elegant, but in hindsight, cute was not a look I ever should have aspired to. Big bones? Maybe compared to the women in the family who have to use kids backpacks because they're so narrow in the shoulder. I don't have that ultra petite build.

Only time will tell if I'm actually "big boned" - I could always throw a mean bale of hay - but however I end up looking, I will do my best to rock the hell out of it.

And ignore anyone but the people who already love me as I am
