Brilliant, shall have to get my bum back in gear you're catching me up fast. Lol Seriously looking great lovely & a great reminder how I need to re-focus the focus on my last few pounds to ensure I have my dream to not allowing myself to wallow in my pit & let the old demons win out which...

us on our wedding day with my parents that day was their 22nd anniversary. 30yrs ago this was us leaving the church as Mr & Mrs. I wore my mums wedding dress! Us at a carnival club meal last month Us at our silver wedding party 5yrs ago. I don't think I was at my heaviest then either...

Wow lovely lady. Ever more fantastic.

Well said ladies. Whatever we do we have to be happy with ourselves & know what we can do to regain that focus. I've realised I'm grazing so fit far more in each day than I should & these days eyes can easily bigger than the stomach. Being self aware & giving ourselves that metaphorical kick in...

I agree we all get comfortable in ourselves & the portion & carbs creep up & if we aren't careful so do the scales. Reaffirming our good habits, being aware if the naughtiest creeping in is something we need to check out every so often. We are aware of our tool we just need to home our skills to...

Frankly ladies I think it's a lottery & if they can find a way to say no to you they will. But that's the way life goes for some of us. If I truly deserve this additional surgery I will find a way or it will find me. Eventually.

Well as I posted in my diary etc no funding for me. Just got back from GP's having discussed what we do next if there was indeed anything we could do. I got the answer I expected, nothing beyond self funding will get me a tummy tuck. Whilst from a personal point of view I feel my apron is huge...

Minn, it is inevitable we will have loose skin to a lesser or greater extent. It depends on the natural elasticity of our skin, how well we exercise & tone if that's physically possible for each of us. Clothing and underwear help, my wobbly bits are noticeably less wobbly in tights of any sort...

I'm in Dorset gp refered me no problem got turned down for lack of evidence of problems going back to gp to see what he is willing to do now. I'm assuming a collection of evidence, lots of pointless appointments for sores I've been treating myself successfully so we have evidence for next try if...

No of course not that would be helpful & useful they can't be that can they! They may have to shell out some funding then lol. I shall see what gp says no point in going to far if he can't support me. If he's still willing I will do some more research to see which hoops we have to jump through...

I expected it no real evidence as Ive been successfully self treating without taking up doc appointments but from now on I shall be there every time. I'd like to try again but will see what doc says. No real reason just a letter to say no didn't meet criteria.

Just got my no from trust! : (

We are all told or nearly all that there is no guarantee of funding for plastics. It's a lotto whether we get it or not. My gp's applied for me I prefer to assume it will be a no rather than that I will be the lucky one . If I am selected I shall be over the moon, if not I shall be disappointed...

Looking fantastic, so glad your recovering so well. Take care.

I'm awaiting the decision of my pct or whatever their latest incarnation is called. But please never never label yourself disgusting. I appreciate your emotions & feelings but just because our surgery has left us with sagging skin & yes we feel dare I simplify it as unhappy with our external...

I tend to use a plain protein powder with milk, yoghurt & either fresh or frozen fruit blitzed together to make a smoothie there's no flavour from the powder only the fruit & plenty of protein. I used it from early on & still have the odd one now & then over 2yrs out.

Thank you. Yeah I know deep down it's not vanity & yep my belly button isn't pleasant not my old appendix scar that's gets red & soar & infected regularly. Because that side goes in because of the scar & the other hangs down & the belly folds over my hysterectomy scar & folds in on its self to...

Maphilips I don't think your feelings are silly at all I've applied for funding through my gp but I'm not sure if I get it I want it. Need almost certainly want is still a scarlet thought. Any surgery is isn't it, in my mind I still believe perhaps I don't deserve it, perhaps I'll be the one who...

Mutual support works both way Hun thank you. As for my funding I assume I won't get it then if I do it's fantastic of I don't I'm mentally if not emotionally prepared. No doubt it will still be a great disappointment if I don't but for me assuming the worst is better than rosey dreams. Lol
