I have a wonderful man in my life who when I mentioned I put on weight said, "Thats just more of you to love." So I certainly dont have to have surgury for him. I will however, do nips and tucks for ME. Like a lot of you, childbirth did a number on me. Not too much in some ways, but bad in others. While I dont wish to be a living doll, I have had a vagioplasty (yes, I had LOTS of damage to my bladder and lady parts from my first difficult delivery) I've had a mini face lift, which was a more difficult recovery for me than a vagioplast.. go figure. I've also had minor stuff done. So, while I'd love to think of lipo, I'll never forget my reaction to anesthesia. Ugh. Like a lot of women, I can find fault with lots of me. But I've learned to think of which is best for me medically, not so much for looks. I think thats important for all of us to consider. Which will not just improve our looks but add to our health and well being. Biggest bang for buck if you will So here how I now look at it. Due in part to elder care, I can see which parts of people age, sag and cause us trouble. Sooo now, the order of my desires has changed. Number one on wish list. Invisilign Braces. As my teeth shift, I do realize periodontal disease can happen when they crowd too much. And MAN! Do I want and need my real teeth! Theres nothing to compare, I can tell you that! So thats medical almost more than vanity. When I bite my mouth it causes me real harm, altho TMI for here. Number two. Neck lift/revision to reduce facial pain (I have fibromyalga in areas of my body) Faces continue to fall down the line, even after a lift. Three. Minor Breast augmentation. Im a b and like being a B. But I have noticed as my estrogen wanes, I have pain and less firmness. Number 4. Lipo in belly area. But maybe not. If I lose ten pounds I'll be fine. So ladies. lets be real. What are my chances in a lifetime of getting all this done? Its not like one can get stuff done every six months like getting a car serviced. lololol Its pricy and theres some serious recovery time, plus it elective! its strange in some ways to put oneself thru suffering as a hobby. So some of my wish list will forver be just that I bet. But its fun to think of my future perfection, so thats why I keep those thoughts in my head. lolol Good luck to us all.
