Topic: SO CA Conference in May!


Just in case you haven't seen the post, OH is having a conference in Southern CA on May 21st and 22nd!  We're hoping that you can make the trip from Nevada down to Costa Mesa to join us for hours of great information and even more hours of fun! 

What could be more fun than getting free samples?? And kicking up your heels until midnight with your friends??

Check out the CA board for more information.  We hope you can come!

Sincerely,
Kim

YEE HAAAAAAA.. Nevada board is starting to "rock"... Meeting Ahealthyme was so inspiring and the avatar pic of her does not do her justice...She is gorgeous and as mucho supportive.  Now I'm dreaming about my surgery and wanna soon be "slip sliding away" right out of these fat ole jeans...(hehehe).

Newbies, guests and/or lurkers..... I can't stress enough that prior to your surgery you research, research and research several physicians, procedures and even the hospitals prior to choosing your surgery.   Although your insurance coordinators are "insurance magicians" they have lots of other patients to assist so any research you can do on your own will keep you ahead of this "insurance game".  As we all know policies and exclusions can be subject to interpretation... So If you get a denial,.Do not give up...Research Research and research  You will always be ahead of the game when you do not leave your life's wishes to "chance", Knowledge is POWER,,,,....Good luck to all and happy blessings in your new healthy journey....

Topic: Think twice before undergoing body contouring surgery
You may want to view all of my pictures before undergoing body contouring surgery as I did.  They are pretty grisly or gristly to view and I've been in great pain for 8 and 1/2 years since I had it done.  It's really a pretty crude surgery considering all the different ways the pelvis can tilt and gyrate.  So much can go wrong and it can really be painful.  Think more than twice and then don't do it. It seems to me that body lift surgery should entail special propping equipment to protect the inner groin skin from being pulled too tight.  Like place a ball under the lower butt crevice during the procedure so there could be some snoose to work with. I wanted to voice to my surgeons  my ideas concerning this propping  under the body so the groin skin wouldn't have to be pulled up so haphazardly "with out any snoose as they say" from the surgical table.  They said they had it all figured out but they didn't.  My inner groin was pulled up in an impossibly tight fashion and then hooked up to just under my hip bone.  Very very painful and disfiguring.  Too tight skin rubbing back and forth over sharp little pubic bones day in and day out.  It's taken years of my life to stretch my skin to the less tight but still "very tight "form it is today.Leech

Hey Lisa,
Yes I am home and I am so happy that I am!! THings went great and actually it was better than I thought! Right after surgery I had a lot of pain, but later that night I was fine. I walked and walked everyday and it just got better and better with the pain. I can't believe that I am actually done with the surgery!! Now we are all losers and loving it!

I have lost 16 pounds already, can you believe it!! WOW!! I am sooo stoked!! How are you doing? Hope all is well! I will definitely update you all as I go thru this journey! Like I mentioned to Val, hopefully we can all hook up soon!! WEll take care of yourself and keep in touch if you can! Until then, LOSERS-4-LIFE!! YAY!!
