I just hope to be more comfortable in and out of my clothes. I want to be able to buy shirts off the rack that are not so large they look like potato sacks, and bras that I can actually try on before purchasing, that don't poke, bind, pinch, creep or sag. Do you know that song "do your ears hang low"? That is how I feel about my boobs. And the tummy... well 2 kids, large babies, and 60 pounds weight gain since I was 18 have taken their toll. I've lost 12 and continue to loose, but it's slow. Even if I lost down to the 120's I'd still have a pooch so it's discouraging.

anticipation
You know that last month of pregnancy, when you know this is all coming to an end. Your belly will go down and you will stop running into stuff and be in your old clothes again (or hopefully). That's kinda how I feel right now. When I can't reach something because my boobs are in the way, or when I'm at the store, and I say to myself "no shopping for clothes until after" it reminds me of that last month of pregnancy. I'm so anxious, and fearful at the same time.

I hear ya on that. Thanks to this site, I'm definitely cognizant of the after sx roller coaster. I think so many people are just excited before sx and that overshadows everything else. I'm looking forward to mine, for sure. But my excitement is certainly tempered, lol!

Mammogram done
Had to get my mammogram today since it was almost time anyway. One more step towards the goal. Next Wednesday is my pre-op. Hubby does not want me to do this, had a roller-coaster discussion tonight. Still struggling with the decision. I'm ready, but he's not. Can't exactly pin him down on why. This makes the decision even harder.

Sorry about your hubby. I'm sure he's just worried about you.

That's part of it. After I posted, we had a good talk. He doesn't see the need but he says it won't effect how he feels about me in "that" way. He is also not sure it will help my back problems and I'm aware of that. and it IS a lot to go through pain wise. That alone should tell him how important it is to me. He loves me as I am and I appreciate that. I just don't want to do anything to mess up our marriage. We've been together 30 years, I would hope it's strong enough to handle this. He says he'll take care of me and support me and all of that, but If I were to ask him for a strait answer, he would say He does not want me to do this. I think part of it is that he thinks other people will thing he wanted me to change myself, and I told him that of the few people I've told about this, I always make sure they know that he is not wanting me to do this. He seemed happy with that. Men, go figure ;/ but I'm still feeling unsure and anxious today.
