Poll: My most embarrassing moment: WLS edition!
Ok, I was just chatting with Pam about something really embarrassing that happened to me that was WLS related. I laugh about it now (heck, I sorta laughed about it then), but I figured this is an opportunity to share my moment with you all and to have you all share your moments with others.
Cuz really? You can’t take yourself but so seriously in this process or you’ll go bonkers.
So what, if any, really cringe-worthy WLS moments have you had?
I'll answer in another post.

Picture it. Baltimore. After Nik's surgery. Nik is making out with a cute guy she's been dating. Oh the passion! You could cut it with a knife. Then...all of a sudden...
URRRRRGGGGGGGH!!! (from Nik's midsection)
Cute guy: Are you hungry? We can go get something to eat if you like?
Me: No...
Pouch: URGGGGGGGGHHHH!
Cute guy: Are you sure?
Me: Yes, I'm sure (Want. Kisses. NOW!!!!)
Pouch: URRRRRRGGGGGHHHH!
Cute guy: I think you are hungry. I don't see you eat a lot anyway. I think we should get something to eat.
(Don't want eat. Want KISSES!!!!)
Me: Really, I'm fine...
Pouch: URRRRRRGGGGGH!!!
Yeah...the lesson from all this. The pouch is a hater. This cycle went on for about ten minutes until I finally relented and we went to a restaurant. I picked at a bowl of soup (cuz I really was not hungry) and I think the guy thought I might have an eating disorder.
We eventually stopped seeing each other, but not because of that.
I can relate though.

Most recently I was out and about at the beach with my new miracle bathing suit on. I looked GOOD from the front and I was feeling good.
Then, my Mom and sister showed up and Mom immediately came over and pulled my bathing suit up a bit in the back. It had miraculously pushed up all my skin/fat over the top and I looked like I had back cleavage - bad. Like several rolls over the top of the suit bad.
The good news.... I doubt anybody REALLY noticed because in the front my boobs were on full display in all their glory. I guess the miracle is that it pushes everything in and up so MAN there was some cleavage. And my waist looked small and well...normal.
What is a little back cleavage between freinds!

p.s. Nik - I read your post about bras - hilarious. I scored when a freind bought new bras for after her boob job and then they didn't fit! I have bras in every color and EVEN a couple with the much sought after 3 hooks for fun!
