I do, I feel like I owe it to Myself. My "under-chin" needs some work, to Me. I'm not wanting a complete face-lift but something that will make Me look "Refreshed." I LOVE My Age and that I am aging Gracefully but I want to basically "Correct" what fat took out of place, NOT what Time put on.

Any thoughts?

    I could see a tummy tuck in my future. I might use it as a reward for hitting my goal. I think I would need to maintain for a year first, just to make sure I've got things under control.

    Now that I have loss a bunch of weight I would like to have a few thing fixed. My chin, my boobs, and my tummy. Oh and my under arms!! I hate them.

    I won't be having anything done to myself....I will just live with it. We are planning a trip for our 25 anniversary, so not fix for me ; (

    I'm not 50+, and I don't have experience with this, but I say do what makes you happy. If you have worked your behind off (literally, I guess) to get where you want to be, you should be able to enjoy it and be truly happy with yourself. Good luck!

    Hi there - I've often thought of getting some "work" done - and then I only really just think about it - if this were say 20 years ago, we wouldn't even be having these thoughts. Due to our society and pressure to stay forever young and good looking (so to speak) even non-celebrities are having work done and it has become quite commonplace.

    Believe me if I could be guaranteed a successful surgery I might consider having a little something done. But, my advice to you or anyone who is considering anything - go to a reputable Plastic Surgeon, not a cosmetic place with aestheticians doing the work. They are there for lovely things like facials, some mole removals, and generally any non-incising procedure.

    If you go to said Surgeon, you can get a free consultation; and get some ideas; some offices, even have computerized pics that you can get an idea of what to expect. Remember, it's called surgery for a reason. Every surgery has risks.

    You are right to be thinking this way AFTER you have achieved your results here. There are some great non-invasive procedures now for your face and body - no cutting! - But it all comes with a price $$$ -

    If I were living in a fantasty land, I would also have my turkey neck done; eyes slightly lifted and take fat from my tummy and inject it to my breasts! - LOL
