Did you have the tummy tuck and facelift at the same time? My idea is to have a lower face and neck lift and possibly a lower body lift and arms. Just depends on how it all ends up looking and feeling (though I think the face and neck lift are a done deal!)

Be forewarned: OH is funky this morning and crashed about 3 times as I was trying to reply to yesterday's posts. I am writing this elsewhere, then pasting it in.

Weight 121.2. Though still in the low-end of my range I don't like that slow creep. If it continues I may go back up to the 5 mg dose.

Wedding day + 1 LOL. Two days until we move my stuff to DH's home.

The wedding was perfect in essentially every way. The weather couldn't have been better, the ceremony was beautiful, the function hall looked amazing, and everyone loved the food and danced up a storm. Lots of emotion of all sorts. I will put pictures up on FB eventually but this morning we need to get ready to host 41 people for brunch.

I had never had that full wedding experience so it seemed like a lot! Seven people having their hair and makeup done in the same house and a photographer arriving before the bride got dressed so he could take pictures at various stages. The only negative was that the groom's mother who hadn't felt well all day ended up so sick just after the ceremony that she had to go to the hospital. Her family was attributing it to extreme anxiety as she has apparently had issues with it in the past. On the other side, the niece who had surgery for breast cancer recurrence on Tuesday got herself out to buy a dress Friday and came to the wedding looking absolutely beautiful even though she still had a drain under her dress. What strength! It did help that the pathology results had come through and at first read sound excellent: cancer in only one lymph node of 12 removed.

Time to start straightening the house and getting cleaned up. Luckily ex-chef DS is doing all the cooking.

Have a super Sunday!

My DH doesn't like the idea of plastic surgery much either though he understands why I wanted the tummy tuck. He would not be in support of another facelift if I chose to do that in a few years but wouldn't stop me.

I had a tummy tuck and a face lift and it was 100% worth it. I sort of wish I had done my arms though they aren't bad and the plastic surgeon actually recommended against it as he thought the scars would be more noticeable than my arm wrinkles. I'm not sure about that. My face is softening up a lot after almost 8 years but still better than it was pre-facelift. I love having a flat tummy.

Your weight is about the same as my DH and DS. I bet you have more muscle than either of them.

Sounds like your DS and his girlfriend have a great relationship so far. Reminds me a bit of how DD and her new DH started out.
