got very little sleep last night. Will be a zombie today. Eek.

Just saw your pics, Brad. You do us All-Stars proud!

mwah! didn't get to chat much to you today, gorgeous. But wanted to send you a big kiss!

just needs to get over Hump Day. Then it's a race to the weekend!

jumped on the scales this morning and found that I've lost almost 4lbs from having gastric flu. Not a good way to lose weight.

hey Desi, thanks for your lovely comments to me in the thread about WLS haters. I see you're in WA too! If you ever wanna chat, drop me a line. Us sandgropers have got look out for each other!

hey Jacqui,

I have been thinking of you and hoping all went well for you. I see you haven't checked in since November and I hope it means all is going well and you're busy recovering. xxx

is too tired to play Guitar Hero Metallica. That means I'm really exhausted....

can't believe it's Sunday evening already. Where did my weekend go?

is looking forward to a weekend of not doing a helluva lot...

went to add you as a friend today but you beat me to it! lol!

I can't get into chat from my work computer, Christy! arrrghhhh!! So peeved!!

really doesn't want to be back at work today.....

needs to get motivated...

I'm so glad to hear how positively everything's going! I often think about our fellow August bandsters and wonder how everyone's going. You'll be at goal for your birthday and you're going to have a blast!

is home sick. On a great beach weather day! Not fair!!

hey there, just realised the latest msg you sent me was new and not some forum glitch (d'er!). You're getting into a size 8? You go, chickie! Woohoo! Good luck with those last 20 lbs - they're the worst 20lbs to lose lol, coz they go so slowly!. And post some before/after pics, so I can see all the good work you've done!

Also, yes, my hubby supported by body lift because my 'overhang' of skin was causing major skin problems. He didn't want me to get more surgery but I was getting sores and everything. He couldn't argue with the medical reasons for it.

But he didn't like the idea of a BA at all. In the end, I did it anyway, and now he's stoked with the new girls! Do what ma...

Hey, I'm sorry I've taken so long to reply, I only just realised I'd received a msg from you!

Basically an inframmary incision is placed in the bottom crease of your breast and an areola incision is an incision through your areola. My incision is pretty big (about 4 inches each) but they're thin and unless I'm lying down, you can't even see them!

is wondering if it's a bit ridiculous to want to lose another 10lbs for her sister's wedding in a year....or am I bowing to wedding pressure here??

is becoming a summer beach bunny as of tomorrow!

is oh so slightly hungover...groan....

wants to Zumba. But still has to wait two weeks before I can 'resume exercise'... grrrr

Look at your teeny tiny little waist! You look amazing!!

I too did it for my kids. I have grown up kids but also have my baby who's only 4 and I'm 40 so I want to be around to see him marry and have his own kids one day.

As far as the pain of surgery, my body lift was probably an 8 out of 10, but only in the first 2 days, then it went down steadily. And I would say giving birth is a 10 out of 10 lol! The BA was easy, pain was probably around 5, and now, two weeks post sx, I'm in nearly no pain whatsoever!
