How are people paying for plastics?
Julie norton replied to hkdontplay's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Just had a TT consult this AM my doc gives 10% off for cashier check. Better keep saving! Apparently I'm a good candidate ( he said I was nice- I said you tell every one that- he said he would operate on hitler or Charles Manson if dying ha due to ethics ) Anyway. A little lift for the girls and a flatter stomach. Sounds ok at 60 gulp -
Same here jwm .....that makes lotsa sense @open/close Am I am very tight. Coffee only. About 1-3 I begin to get hungry and drink a protein drink. I/2nanana or yogurt. It is evenings I struggle a bit with

MarieM. And. JWMe. Thanks for your posts. We have burdens. But not so much insulation, huh? JWM. It is a real growth opportunity to travel. Maybe study foreign language? But moms are programmed to worry. I Just surrounded mine with love and light. I tried this when he went to Brazil ....really looked forward to texts and face time⏰worried A lot Marie. Lots of crisis with elder parents ...seem very stressful... My Dad has been bed bound for almost 5 years and new problems happen Guess life has its own issues. I am thinking of my cyber gal pals with thoughtfulness????

Curious -- could you have done it without Weight Loss Surgery?
Julie norton replied to Vikingsfan8178's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I certainly tried ....thanks Mom for taking me to get diet pills at 11. Prob 8-10 lbs overweight. That is all she knew and image meant a lot to her Sigh Fast forward to 2006. Been on Ww, Horse urine (bizarre), liquid only medifast, keep going. I could lose a bit. But NEVER STAYED OFF. That is my issue with the million $ diet industry that does not work or we would all be thin after a few attempts. Huh? This works for YEARS for me. No fighting with my mind and hunger. What a relief???????????? -
Beautiful pics. But looks cold!❄️⛄️ Glad you are doing your civic duty. Many don't. I want good people if I ever need a jury??!?! Let us hope not But I'm 60 now. I could get crazy

HurrAh. Another successful bander over 10 years. Apparently some older bands didn't hold up well. My doc says my type can stay as long as I wish. Over 8 years no prob but pbing. Mostly my fault when I think I need late snack. Not binge. Just nothing late works well but protein drinks. Oh well
-
Thanks. Consult for me next Monday. Very excited. And ya. With beauty comes pain. Sad and true. Vanity huh? And other issues
-
Being self pay got me in/out very quick. All good. Blood tests. One nutritional class after. ( not enough) I would do it again In a ❤️beat. Good luck

Ps. I go to group personal trainer. Split up it is reasonable and I have to go because IT COSTS ME MONey AND I AM WORTH IT. Going on 8 years with her and my group. People often don't show and I do some personal classes when I have money
-
Good luck!!! It can be a long road but I think totally works. Weight doesn't come back. That is the best I think

Lost my yellow lab a year ago. Just kitties for awhile. Miss my "doorbell alert". A lot. Waiting for a smaller 35-40 lb non shedder. To come my way and love my kitties too Don't know when
