    Betty1971 got a reaction from friesianet in Weirdest None-Scale-Victory - I'll go first   
    Here are just a couple of the silly things that have made me smile the last couple weeks:
    1. I can buy cute underwear that are not made out of white flour sack material.
    2. I can put on my socks in the morning with out making strange sounds and grunting.
    3. When getting dressed to go somewhere the first thing out of my mouth is NOT "does this make me look fat!"

    Hello everyone!! I am one week post Tummy Tuck with muscle repair and they fixed a hernia while they were in there. I’m SHOOK !!
    I got to take the bandages off yesterday (completely) for the first time and I don’t remember the last time I looked down and seen the, my know what without the big apron of skin.

    anyway to those that are veterans how long did you stay swollen? My team said it varies so much with activity and wearing the binder ect….
    Did anyone do the belly button training or will my cute little scabby mess turn out good with out it?
    i feel super self conscious showing this picture but I think we can all appreciate our “before and after” photos at some point

    All right; today I had to call my husband out to the field and ultimately we called the case technician for a tech call. We couldn’t get the tractor to shift into gear, I tried everything. I have ran tractors my entire adult life!!!
    after a service call here was the problem, when I pushed in the clutch There was no longer enough WEIGHT on the seat to be detected by the sensor for the tractors system for the computer to allow it to shift!!! Whoop whoop!!!! The fix, push my ass down harder on the seat and let up on the clutch!!! Yippe!!!

    Oh the strange things that people have to me and about me during my weight loss journey. My own family (estranged family now) have accused me of being on drugs, it has been said I must have cancer, my favorite one is she must have developed "an eating disorder"! I mean nobody said I had an eating disorder when I weighed 247 pounds but now that I am 125 I have one? lol
    People say that they have no idea how much their words affect others but I think they do know and that is why they weaponize them. I had to learn how to let their words roll off my back like a duck lets Water roll off their back. I know what I was working towards and why, that is all that matters

    Betty1971 got a reaction from Kris77 in fDL tummy tuck done Tuesday   
    I got to take all the bandages off yesterday and I took a good look for the first time,like a really good look.
    First I couldn’t believe I actually have hip bones, I’m pretty sure they have been in hiding since 1989.
    Second, I think they took me seriously when I said I wanted to bounce a quarter off my tummy. It looks amazing but the back pain for walking all slouched over is REAL!
    Lastly, I have a cute, scabby, discolored belly button and I can’t wait for the scab to fall off so I can really appreciate all its beauty!

    I am 51 years old and really went back and forth about this because of my age and I was really worried that it wasn’t going to be worth it…..
    people hear me when I say, if you have the opportunity to go for it, do it. I cried on and off today for no other reason than pure joy!
