Daily Post--7/4/08
I would love to have plastics but don't see it in my future since insurance won't cover it. I have yet to try on a bathing suit. Swimming maybe out of the question with the skin if I think it looks too bad...... lol As far as bras go, I really like the Lane Bryant Cacique bras. They are a little pricey but worth the money.

I want to have plastic surgery once I reach my goal (about anothr 60 lbs). I am not sure how I am going to pay for it, but will figure it out when the time comes. Need arms and legs, as well as tummy tuck, etc. As for bras, I love my Soma bras. . .I have gone from a 44DD to a 40B. . .the soma bra puts the girls where they need to be!
I did not think I would be this VAIN about the way I looked when I apparently did not care to be OB. Well I am wrong. I want to get the arms the tummy fold the legs and maybe a girl lift. I can fix the girls some by just wearing a good bra, but I have not found one I like yet. The tummy fold makes me still look heavy in the front and I have also noticed it makes the butt look bigger because it looks to round from the fromnt right around that area to the butt. So if insurance will help cove I will most likly get so PS. Maybe Ill see if I can go on tv and get it paid for!! Now thats a thought.
Pre-surgery, I thought "no way will I worry about PS!". Even post-WLS, I thought there was no way I'd voluntarily go under the knife again! But.... almost two years out, I wish I could have some work done. Insurance won't cover it, so I'd have to figure out a way to pay for it on my own.
First, I'd have breast implants. I went from a 42C to a 34B, and honestly, the only reason it's a B is because when everything gets pushed into the bra, it fills it out... but OMG, when I lie on my back, they're practically sunken in!! (I know, TMI).
I'm ok, dressed. I love Victoria's Secret bras - they seem to hold everything in the right places. I never, ever wear short sleeves, and haven't in probably 40 years, so that doesn't bother me at all. I don't wear shorts - I think the last time I did, I was probably four years old. I don't swim in public.
Not showing skin is not a problem for me, since I grew up hiding it. Now, it's just the way I live.
I've considered trying to get on "Extreme Makeover" or something like that, but I don't think I want to share my personal experiences with the whole world! Those women pose for pictures in their underwear, both before and after! I couldn't show my face at work or in my friend's circles after knowing they might have seen that!! hehehehe
