  1. The gym was cool now I'm about to watch From Prada to Nada and this Bowflex dvd I ordered... maybe I can get the Treadclimber for my Bday :)

  2. Looking through old memory cards and I am floored at how big I was!!!!

  3. I'm not sure lol, I just remember trying to sit up straight hurt alot, so did slouching and once I actually would stand up and walk around I would be fine. I think the abdominal binder would have been perfect but I didnt wear it to work. That first day back was hell and when I got home I took pain meds, sat in my favorite chair and slept for 3 hours lol. I don't regret any of it though, best decision ever

    Bras

    What size are you thinking about going to with your augmentation? I have too much boobies lol. But I definitely will need a lift out of this world lol. Even when I was in highschool someone made a comment to me about needing to wear better bras cause my boobs hung low. (I wanted to slap them lol) but yeah, I wonder will my lift come out ok w/o an implant?
  15. My arms are a little saggy but I definitely use the row machine at the gym at least 2 or 3 times a week. I say just get into the mindset that exercise is and should be a very important part of your life. It may not improve the saggy skin but you energy level will be through the roof, you will look alot more toned, and you will be sexy That's exciting, 18 more days!!!!!

    Vegas during Pre-Op Liquid Diet????

    Yikes! I can't even imagine going to Vegas during pre- op diet but I know it will be possible, you will just have to restrain yourself and remember why you are doing this. Shopping, sight-seeing and shows and whatnot should distract you though. What does your liquid diet consist of? Mines was 5 slim fast shakes a day and 1 meal for dinner that was a piece of meat and 1 cup of veggies. If you have protein shakes I would say pack it all and take it with you. I hope this helps, I know you can do it!
  17. Yes it has to be supervised. I went to a weightloss doctor and he prescribed me adipex for 3 months and that was enough for insurance to use for documentation that I had been on a supervised weightloss program. The insurance lady at my surgeon's office said that a supervised weight program could also be seeing the dietician for 3 months before surgery, I didn't have to do that though because they approved me before the I even finished a month of seeing my dietician. What insurance do you have? I have BlueCross BlueShield FEP (federal employee program).

    Bras

    I only wear bras from Lane Bryant- I absolutely love them.Even though my breast are shrinking I still look like I have nice round boobs with their bras. Last time I went in LB was 2 weeks ago and I was told I was at 42D from a 48I and I do need new bras badly but I'm going to wear these until I absolutely can't wear them anymore
  21. Just got back from the gym- I was negative 450 calories. Boy am I tired. Just got in 25 grams of protein though. I started an exercise log to keep track of how much I burn at the gym.

  22. You are getting closer to your tenative date! excited????

    1 week, 17 pounds!!! OMG

    First off, Congrats! Fear is normal but it's only down from this point as far as your weight goes! Be positive! Optimistic! 17lbs in one week is amazing!!!
  24. I definitely think it has made things easier for me. I have so much energy and now I work out everyday- before I wouldn't dare lol. I think you heal alot faster the younger you are.

    2 Major Issues - Advice Please :)

    Had the same problems! First thing I tried eating was an egg- it came right back up. I tried mashed potatoes, went down fine. The incision scar it hurt really bad as well, but I overdid it by swimming laps. After a couple of days or so, the pain just subsided. The doctor told me that it was normal. I haven't had any problems with it anymore. It may be spasms or something. You are still healing. That's the once scar my doctor's office forewarned me about!
