Congratulations everyone so far... may each of you have a speedy recovery.

Sorry about the cough... and everyone's general discomfort too.

Thinking of you all. Kimberly

everything happens for a reason.... maybe if i keep repeating it i will believe it. :biggrin:

OMG, when they pulled my drain tubes out, she told me to take a deep breath and then she'd pull when I let out my breath, OOOOOOOOOOOUCH, that tube must have been a foot long, both of them. I can't believe you pulled your own stuff out, you're so brave.

OK, what's up with the blood work? Any clue what that means to you? Details please. Hugs for missing your date, just hope everything else is A-OK.

Eugenia: Glad everything went well! YEAH! The pain medication works that well huh? That's great. I've heard some people say that the brachioplasty is very painful and others say it's not too bad. Glad you're doing well. Looking forward to your pictures.

Neal: glad your posting again.

MommiHammi- You'll be in my prayers. Easy to remember because that's my 2 week pre-op appointment day. Can't believe in you squeeked in there before me.

LJM: okay, I'm starting to get nervous again, questioning myself, right and left. Can't believe I'm becoming such a big chicken!

LMJ: Oh brother, I posted before I saw your post saying you were postponed! First, the breast scare and now this! So sorry this is happening! HUGS from me too! Please keep us informed.

[losingjusme 12]

guys, it really is ok... really..

more details later..

[HarleyNana 10]

LJM, you've got such good spirits, keep it up :wink_smile:

Please keep us informed.

Hi guys, I posted some new pix on my thread if your interested. Hope everyone is healing well

[losingjusme 12]

ok... long story (details are posted on my blog - dont feel like retyping or posting here for that matter)... its long and depressing.

still uncertain on what im going to do.

neal, you are looking so good. how are you feeling?

LJM, I'm so sorry. I know you're disappointed, but as shown with my experience, sometimes things were just meant to happen. Right now I'm just miserable with a horrid head cold and raging runs. I can't even begin to imagine if I was recovering from major plastic surgery. One thing I want to caution you about, though. I was really motivated with my eating and exercise when I was preparing for plastic surgery. Once that was no longer in the forefront, I started getting sloppy, and I've put on a few pounds because of it. Please don't let this situation de-motivate you. You are doing an awesome job, please stick with it, and know that the difficulty you're going through is just a delay.

(Edit: LJM, I posted this earlier, before I read your blog, and didn't know at that time what happened, and I'm embarrassed to compare your situation to mine. I am so sorry for your loss. Hang in there, darlin'.)

Hugs, and best wishes,

Tami

LJM: Read your blog. I don't blame you for not wanting to retype it all. Wow! You have some big decisions ahead of you. I'm wondering if getting rid of the pannus would actually be helpful to your overall health and ability to carry a child? I think it might. But waiting another 6 months for healing etc. that's hard. Patience is the hardest virtue. Do you have other children? I feel for your quandry. I respect you and wish you the best. Chin up. Hugs!

Christine, Sorryu to hear about all that's going on. I to believe that everything happens for a reason, sometimes I don't know why some things happen, but I do try and believe it.

Will keep you in my prayers that everything works out for you. and remember all that you have achieved with your weight loss, thats remarkable!!!
