Pat, son's been out of the house for 'bout a year now. He's 23.

Yep wedding bells! should be may '09. small, inexpensive, outdoors at park's rose garden. That was their idea ...They know there's not a lot of money to work with so they are trying to be as frugal and sensible as they can....not to worry folks, it's gonna be alright, we told them we'll help them make it special.

AchooooooooOOOOooo!, UGH! gonna sign off here...love ya guys!

Good Morning Y'all!

Diane - Sorry you feel so yucky! Stay in bed and get well!

I like the smaller weddings, it's so much more personal and stress is not as crazy!

I am so glad it is a short week, although I feel like I have worked a month straight! I am really tired this morning, and I need to get my arse in the shower and wake up!

Only two more days to get through! Then it's work at home, but that's not so bad since I don't have to get dressed up to do it. lol

Well going to get off here and get ready for the day.

Later!

Betty, you're one party throwing gal, always busy too.

Kat, where are you? Hope you're ok.

Well gals, I've been meaning to tell ya, the ps wants to redo my reduction and do implants to give me the lift I need/want. Plus, he's going to re-lipo my underarm area and a puffy area in my tummy. He wants $1,000.00 addl for the implants alone, plus another 1700 to do them, plus the OR and the anesthes fee. If I get my eyelids done at the same time, total cost will be another $6700.00. That's with "no charge" for the redo of the lypo and the redo of the reduction.

I don't think he should charge for the implant install at all, since I left it upto him to do the implants if he couldn't give me the lift and firmness I was looking for. Not sure what I'm going to do at this point, I just know I'm very disappointed with the boobs.

Later gals

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
