Thank you to everyone who emailed me from my last post. I have a date of 10/21 to have my hernia repaired. I also made a date to get a 'skin' lift on my face for 10/26 while I'm recovering from hernia surgery. I have lost 105 pounds and feel that my neck and face are sagging. I am very self conscious about my neck and chin. I feel after the cosmetic surgery I'll be happier with myself. My husband disagrees, and opposes the cosmetic surgery.(He would help pay for a tummy tuck or a breast enlargement.) It will cost 5,000.00 for the surgeon, 1,000.00 for the hospital and 800.00 for the anesthiologist. Oh well life is never easy, I'm going to stick to my guns and go though with it.

Hi Susan, Wow! What a dilemma! I can't imagine a loved one holding me back from something that I want to do to make me feel better about myself. But since he has decided not to, you need to decide if it's worth to you. If it is - YOU GO GIRL! God Bless! Barbie 281/196/170ish
