The "other side" of the Cincy OH conference (for me, that is)

Yes, they are also for selling... that is the only explanation for us getting the horrid collagen protein bullets in our sample bag!

I heard one of the "plastic surgery barbie models" as you call them (LOL) tell a woman that the only way her PS scars would heal up to be nice thin white lines was if she got the (expensive) silicone sheets/strips to put over the incisions for several months.  She (the barbie) was visibly annoyed when I showed the woman my brachioplasty scars and told her that I put nothing on them except my normal moisturizer (and that my panniculectomy scar was just as thin and white).

There is some pressure for people to have PS, I think... and to have that "perfect" thin new body, but I think that there are also many who, like me, just feel SO unhappy with the extra skin some places, that it's a matter of being able to be happy with your body rather than "succeeding".

Glad to know I'm not the only one who still has enormous boobs!
