    Biggers breasts anyone??

    I would take my natural, saggy, barely a B breasts anyday over my nice, round, perky (100% fake) size C breasts. (I'm a breast cancer survivor with a bilateral masectomy/reconstuction). Nothing like the real thing:-)

    PMS /prozac ???

    Hi Mary, I tried everything from Primrose Oil to whatever else someone would recommend. Did the B's, cut back on caffeine, everything. The ONLY thing that worked for me is Prozac. My only regret, I wasted years trying other things because well-meaning friends always downed anti-depressants. If...

    PLEASE Check your breasts...

    Good message ladies. Just do it. I had a bilateral masectomy the day after I turned 37, along with an axillary node dissection (30 lymph nodes removed). It doesn't matter if you have lumpy fibrous breasts, large droopy ones, or small and perky, family history or no family history. All that does...

    Work Outs for Breast Cancer Patients

    Just to emphasize the importance of checking with your doc before beginning exercises....I had so many people who COULD NOT BELIEVE my surgeon didn't even want me to stretch or lift light weights until he said so. SEVERAL "Well meaning" friends all knew someone who was told to stretch and...

    Work Outs for Breast Cancer Patients

    I'm not Cathe but I had to add a congratulations on finishing your treatment! I'm a surivor too (diagnosed at 36, bilateral mascectomy at 37) and I also believe working out kept me energetic and "healthy" during 6 months of chemo. I did the same videos during and immediately after chemo that I...

    Teenagers, summer and curfews....

    Hi Tammy, My daughter just turned 17 and we never really had a "curfew". That said, none of my kids are allowed to "just hang out". They have to be at a specific, supervised event or friends home. As far as I'm concerned, in this day and age, they really don't need to be out "running the...

    Anyone live/from Pennsylvania?

    I live in Southeastern York County (Delta, to be specific). There are "crowded suburbs" pretty local to us. York City has several law firms, as does Bel Air, MD (both within 30 minutes). Harrisburg is about 45 minutes from us. Fawn Grove, Stewartstown, Brogue, Felton, and Airville are slightly...

    Anyone had microdermabrasion?

    Hi Kelley I had microdermabrasion done. I was told it would remove mild discolorations and acne scarring. Nope, it didn't. It definitely didn't remove any fine lines. I went through the series of 6. It removed the dead skin and gave me face a glow for a short time. I personally won't pay to...

    Calories

    Hi Traci, I can't believe the difference in my weight loss by just adding protein and dividing my meals into 5 small ones throughout the day. I have been working out consistently for 11 months (4-6 days a week) and did not lose a pound. Two weeks ago I started eating protein every time I eat a...

    Silicon Implants-how long has it been for you?

    My plastic surgeon made certain I knew before I had reconstruction that ALL implants have the potential to "rupture". The AVERAGE lifespan of an implant is ten years. Some last longer, some last less. Some are just totally rejected by the body and need removed after a few months (this is not the...

    Homeschooling moms...how do you fit exercise in?

    Hello, I homeschool grades 6,7,8 and 11. Since my guys are older it is easier for me to slip out to the gym. When they were younger, it was very hard to get through a video. Constant interuptionsx( I came up with the rule that if anyone disturbed me during an exercise video, unless it was an...
