  1. 1. Would you have your mons lifted?

    • Yes, they are as out of shape as I am.
    • No, that area is forbidden!
    • Maybe...

Hmm... I'll make a point of asking for it when I get round to having the TT and BL. I don't shave, other than a close trim and tidy up, because my stretch marks go right down beneath the pubic hair and I figure it probably looks wrinkly as hell down there. No need to expose THAT, right? It would be nice to have the skin feel taut again.

I don't shave it all either. I guess I'm the only one who doesn't like that prepuberty look!

Fannie & Carrie - I don't shave that area either. I'm a very clumsy person, if I shave my legs I get knicks. I can see mutilating myself down there and trying to explain that to the ER. I'd die of morification!

No Carrie, it seriously creeps me out. The thought of my DH admiring what is basically something that looks like a 10 year old girl is not a nice thought.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels that way! I can see trimming, but going bald is too far for me!

I am not a very hairy person anyway, and have never had a problem with curlies outside the bikini line. I'm blonde and all my hair (legs, armpits, etc) is very light and wispy.

If I'm seeing someone, I will make an effort to trim the hairs short, and will occasionally shave a shape into the top area for fun, but that always comes at a price of horrendous itchiness afterwards. I have used Nair (the one for delicate skin) a couple of times to really reduce the forest, but that tended to leave me looking motheaten as it is very hard to control the edges. I wouldn't mind using this option to get rid of it all, as I don't have a reaction to it, but I'm with Jachut in that I think the bald look is a little bit creepy and smacks of pedophilia.

I haven't been seeing anyone on an intimate basis for 12 months anyway, so at the moment, I'm at full bush, hehehe.

Wow! I can't believe where this poll/thread has gone. Pubic hair removal? There is nothing we women won't share.

I have no comment other than to say that on the a "reality" TV show that takes place in California and is about plastic surgeons....you know the one...it's got Dr. Rey and Dr. Diamond....the one on TLC channel, I think.

Anyway, one of the episodes profiled a young woman who had lost a lot of weight and wanted to reduce the size of her mons. She got liposuction and, I think, a lift.

Just wanted to share that tidbit.

I had a Tummy Tuck, before I decided to get lap band (go figure) I assumed the Doc would take care of that, but he didn't. So if you have one done make sure you talk to him or her about it.

Thanks for the info vegwannabe!

I quit watching that show a few years back because Dr. Rey drives me NUTS -- he's SO full of himself and he often acts very strangely and unprofessionally with his patients, also his wife (who seems to be a chronic "whiner") gets on my last nerve too!!!

Dr. Diamond seems like a pretty good guy though, I liked the episode where he proposed to his girlfriend and arranged for her Mom and sisters to be there as a surprise as well, I thought that was really sweet :incazzato::smile::driving:! They probably have children by now -- huh?

I'm a full bush right now too, I know horrible lol, I normally keep it clean.

I think I like to keep it so clean shaven is because I am young and I am not married or in a relationship, I dunno what's going to come along...LOL I know but yeah...But it's been quite awhile since I have had sex, so I havent even shaved my legs recently LOL. I don't show them so I see no reason to shave them until I feel better showing them off.

Wow, is clean shaving normal? I had no idea!

A bit strange where I come from. Nice and trim... ok, but nothing?

Ew.

Oh yeah, I had to clean shave for a surgery a few years ago, so Fanny I know what you mean about the itchies.

It seems like going bald has suddenly become normal, at least with a lot of girls I know. All of my female coworkers say that they shave all of theirs. (Yea, we talk about weird stuff!!) I have even heard of GUYS shaving all of theirs as well!

It's the latest fashion in porn, so I think a lot of people are doing it because they think it is sexy. Guys apparently get talked into shaving themselves because it makes them look bigger. I've only seen it once but I thought it made him look like a plucked turkey neck! EWW!!

Its one of those things where I'm glad I'm 40 and dont have to worry about stuff like that, lol. Nice, neat, bikini line done, fine, but plucked clean, no thanks, for reasons already stated.

I'm lucky not to be particularly hairy either, despite being dark haired and fair skinned, I didnt get cursed with dark body hair, its all fine and blonde. A quick once over with the razor on legs (only below the knees), underarms and bikini line does me once a week to once a fortnight. I have an $11 eyebrow wax once every three weeks. I cant believe the money people have to spend on hair removal!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
