    watching the programme hospital made me feel guilty about asking as everyone one person that goes in for cosmetic surgery a person with breast cancer thats lost one boob has to wait for it to for there breast to be corrected .. and i think if someone can go through that then then i can wait :) ive done the hard work alittle more wont hurt :) ...

    plus different places are ALOT more fussy ... honestly you have to be classed as abnormal (didnt know that before) x
    :)Still searching .....:)

    Errrrr about 7lbs should do, as I'm sitting here drinking vodka :o I can do it though, just drink those vile shakes and glug a heap of water. I don't drink water, so I'll loose 4lbs straight off from drowning myself in it and my body peeing it out.

    I had to get pics of my overhang taken cause the surgeon was sperming himself when he saw it and was like "wow this is great" "Can you go to the next building and get pics taken, I want them for my new book" and I was like "Aye sure why not, means you can't back out now f*****!" he wants AFTER pics too.


    Going to be famous :D:p

    Yeah it is quite bad, more so for my age and whatnot. He did tell me genetics plays a part in it and my mum has a bad apron (but then she has had 3 kids) but I think I remember it being just as bad when I was little and saw her naked.

    I don't actually mind about a scar to be honest SM, I'm covered in the chuffin things anyways! :rotfl: It will be from side to side along my pubic bone, so I imagine it will kinda look like a C section scar maybe? I've never seen one of those though. He also said that its not advised to get pregnant for at least a year afterwards, and it might undo the work so to speak but there is a better chance it won't overhang again as they'll have tightened it up well or something? God knows! I don't want anymore anyways but least if you can still have the option!
  • Mine is pretty bad .. not helped by having had 2 c sections though. The scar wouldnt phase me in the slightest ... its like a war wound !! lol

    BMI is carp...when I was at my thinnest (a comfortable size 12) I was classed as overweight but there's no way I'd want to be thinner. I'm broad shouldered and big boned and boobed so I can't really get much smaller than that iykwim.

    It was around this time http://www.facebook.com/gillmitchell#!/photo.php?pid=7318970&id=807300373&ref=fbx_album BMI said I should still be 2 stone lighter.

    Ladies, I need some fashion advice! I'm going out tomorrow night and wearing a shortish black and purple dress with black leggings and I'm wondering what style of shoe I should wear? I usually wear boots with leggings buy it's obviously too warm. Should I go with pumps, sandals or heels????

    ETA - SM that is amazing, you have done unbelievably well x
