Yup. I had the lipo, and it went great. I'm not really all that much smaller, but it's amazing how different my shape is. The best part, I can wear tan color pants. Yup. I actually went out and bought some khakis. Size 16. Low-rise (I didn't even really know what that meant, but apparently when you're short and you're buying pants that aren't elasticized, it's the way to go). Very little pain, very low recovery time, and now it's just waiting 6 months before deciding on the skin thing.
Here's the thing, and why I haven't been blogging. I'm off in Babe-land again. I really don't feel like examining my soul, or thinking about what works and what doesn't. I just want to get out and live life. But my problem is the same problem I've always had--that I am all or nothing. So I'm not finding a good balance of introspection and still living "in my body" so to speak. I'm in, or I'm out. Frankly, the recent plastic surgery has put me much more into my body, and driven out the desire to stay at least a little into my head. I've started meditating again, hoping to find some balance. You'll know if it's working if you see more posts soon.
In the meantime, let me leave you with this fabulous little find: The Laproscopic Bypass kit, sold on Amazon. I actually found the post making fun of it, and celebrating all the sarcastic reviews it got. Just for fun, check it out here (it's number 2 on the list). Enjoy, and hope to see you again soon...
