PeacockMama 119 Posted January 27, 2013 Omg I think we are twins! I had a c section and 2 natural births, 7 tattoos, AND a breast augmentation. Everything except the hemorrhoids! Haha. I think you'll be fine to go back to teaching in 10 days! Most ppl take off a week or so,max. Some people go back to work in 4 or 5 days (I've heard). im a full time mommy of 9 month old twins, a 2 yr old, and 8 yr old. I will have 2 days in hosp after surgery (in juarez, mexico) then im flying home to georgia. when I get back, it'll be back to being a mommy with no time off. are you very curious how your implants will look when we lose all the extra fat on them? I know I sure am! Hopefully we wont lose all our assets, and the implant will keep them full. *fingers crossed* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sherbert5 15 Posted January 27, 2013 Hi all. I will be submitting my paperwork to insurance for approval feb 11 hoping for the end of march surgery date with dr chau at princeton - plainsboro hospital in nj ( yes where house "takes" place) I'm 5' 5" 250lbs. Pre diabetic, pcos, no gallbladder, and have been struggling with infertility for 3 years. I too have had a breast augmentation in the past and have starved myself down to 160lb in the past. I am very open with having the surgery ( family , close friends and co workers know) 1 because I'm so excited and 2 because maybe there is someone out there who is considering wls as well but needs someone to talk too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
