I'm 13 days post op and am sitting in a massage chair getting a pedicure as I write this. Just one of many ways I will be caring for myself now, because it's not just all about diet and exercise, right?

I got a pedicure 2 days before my surgery and a massage the day before! I had held onto that gift card for over a year!

Being pampered is the best!!! I feel that it's good for your mental health!

mani/pedi is one of my favorite treats! I am planning to stop for a manicure on the way home tonight. been looking forward to it all day. gotta have pretty hands to show off all the rings that have been sitting in my jewel box waiting to fit me again.

I took my mom for manicures the 6 days after my surgery. We had our manicures and then I went home and took a nap because I was exhausted! I had planned to do that because I had all my nail polish removed for surgery. It was a nice treat.

I can't wait til my wedding ring fits again! No manicures for me though. I do too much artwork with charcoal and pastels. My hands are always a mess and I'd quickly ruin a manicure.

I get the gel manicure, it lasts a month full even with french tips and I do all kinds of crazy artsy type stuff and gardening. :-) but the rings, I am so happy I can't stand it.

Ladies, I'm always interested to learn about things in other states... Where I live a manicure/ pedicure is $25... I get a weekly nail polish that last about 10 days without chipping

I'm in Colorado. My favorite place charges $25 for a basic pedi, but I usually splurge for the deluxe at $35 because the massage is amazing and so worth the extra money.

Then definitely get a pedicure (unless you paint with your toes)!

Similar prices, I often get sucked into getting the extra massage....

I am in Maryland and a mani/pedi usually cost me between $40 - $65. The cheaper is for a basic, but sometimes I splurge for the hot stone massage with the hot towels and mineral clay wrap.

I get the gel/ French tips also. For $30....and it does last about a month. I put clear over it about every 10 days, but I find it to be good value to have my hands look sharp daily.

Wow I am impressed with all of the self caring. I am too embarrassed that I am fat and ugly and can't even get manicure and certainly not a massage. Maybe I can change after I lose the weight.

Upstate New York mani/pedi is $30 but I get the gel mani so it cost me $45 or $50 for a French

@wanttobe... The only thing all these spa care about is green... If you got money their more than happy to pamper you without any judgements for the most part. Being here in NYC, there would be some place that would be make me feel uncomfortable so I would not go...
