  1. Best of luck to you @Darktowerdream!!! Hope you have some fun mom/daughter time too. I love pixie haircuts BTW! Unfortunately, my face is too fat for one. I need big hair to balance my big face! LOL!! You are so tiny, and I bet the cut looks perfect on you!
  2. Congrats!!! I agree, we need some before/after pics!!!
  3. Only a few more days to go!!!!! I'm excited for you!!!! Happy packing!!!!
  4. That's a great NSV!!!!!!!!!
  5. Congrats!!! Can't wait to see pics of the new you!!!
  6. WOW!!! You look amazing already, and it's only been 12 days since surgery!!! Curves in all the right places!!!
  7. Congratulations!!! 5 Months, wow!! The fun part is you don't have to wait that much longer for baby to arrive!
  8. Congrats!!!! Perhaps the neck pain is from being in a weird position during surgery? If it's just muscle pain, some Icy Hot or Biofreeze will help!
  9. The reason I chose bypass was b/c I read so many stories about people converting after the sleeve, and I didn't want to have a 2nd surgery down the road. I also had GERD, and didn't want it to get worse. My GERD completely went away after my bypass. I don't even need TUMS anymore...it's amazing!
  10. Woo hoo!!!! So many victories in just 5 months!!!!
  11. Are you on Lovenox or any other blood thinners?
  12. Yes, bonus points for me! LOL!! The FB groups are blowing up over the new prices! I seriously lucked out!
  13. I can imagine how scary that was!! I'm glad you are feeling better, and hope you can figure out what caused it so that it doesn't happen again!!
  14. Fun update!! The price of my surgery just increased by $6K, but I'm already locked in at the lower price!! Woo Hoo!!!
  15. I didn't tell my kids (only my husband knows). I just said I was going away for work and would be at a hotel for 1 night. I'm sneaky like that! LOL!! Best of luck with your surgery!!
  16. Woo Hoo!!!!! congrats!!!
  17. A lot of women do BBL for their booties, but for me, it seems weird to re-inject fat that I've been trying so hard to get rid of! I'm not thrilled with my thighs, but am hoping that the TT will help that a bit!!
  18. YES!! Obsessed! LOL!! I've also joined some FB groups too with lots of before/after pics!!!
  19. Judging from your profile pic you can not only WEAR a bikini, but also ROCK a bikini!!!
  20. How are you feeling? You back home yet?
  21. I'm so sorry that you went through all of that. Glad you are ok! Rest well, and welcome to the thin side!!!
  22. WOW!!!!! Great job and thank you for the inspiration!!!
  23. Yes, it's the same thing as a LBL, my doc just uses different terminology. My upper thighs are saggy, so I'm hoping for that lift!! My booty is flat, and sadly will stay that way b/c the lift only flattens it even more, so I see lots of squats in my future! Getting rid of side boob will be amazing! I still remember white water rafting years ago and my side boobs were coming out of the arm holes of my life jacket! Yuck! One mistake I made with WLS was not taking a "before" pic, so I will definitely make sure to have lots of before and after pics of PS!! LOL at finding excuses to take off your clothes!! Instead of pulling my shirt down all of the time to cover my flab, it might be nice to let it ride up a few inches if there is a nice flat tummy underneath!!
  24. I find that if PB is warm and gooey, it spreads really good and I don't need as much. I like it on a toasted chaffle! It's also good swirled into some greek yogurt!
