Anyone know anything about this?

No -- really

No cosmetic surgery for me. First there are the health risks.
Then I'm ok with the way my body is made. There is much room for improvement but I would get a trainer again before the knife would even an option.

I just recently moved to Canton, from Kennesaw. But I am basically all over Metro Atlanta, and Savannah is probably my all-time favorite vacation spot.

And Kevin Barry's is probably my favorite bar, ever. Quiet, not too noisy, sorta feels like everyone knows you.

Bags? What bags? You don't even have carry-ons :lol:

Seriously though, having seen you IRL, you do not need any adjustments.

thanks, but ... still.

That is a pretty easy surgery, not very painful, but you do look like hell for about 2 weeks afterwards.

We love Kevin Barry's as well. We get down to River St. a few times each month. Let me know when you are coming to town and I'll buy you a beer.

I was watching John & Kate plus 8 at my sisters yesterday, and Kate was getting a tummy tuck (free of course :rolleyes:). Aside from removing skin/fat, they also put her abs back together.

I want the abs part - but no scars.

Oh heeeyylll yes!!

Everything on my body seems to be heading south or outward, so a little surgical help would be most welcome.

At the end of this month I am scheduled to have what feels to me a bit like a cosmetic (not required for survival) hysterectomy. I have significant quality of life issues, pain, discomfort, other issues about tissues that you'd probably rather not read about, but the truth is that I could survive without it. Just be miserable. After posting what I did I felt a bit dishonest not 'fessing up to planning this procedure and wanted to admit it. :o

Clodfobble 07-18-2008 10:27 AM

If you are in pain, it is absolutely not cosmetic.

Besides, I'm pretty sure no one walking down the street will look at you and say, "Ugh, that woman has clearly had her uterus removed. How fake."

And, if it doesn't change your outward appearance, it can't be classified as cosmetic. Hope it helps, sweetwater. :thumb2:
