    FUN!!

    Okay:

    Minor oral surgery at age 5

    Lasik surgery at age 28

    Burst ectopic pregnancy (removal of fallopian tube) at age 30 (this one was fun...I endured the pain from 9am to 9pm before calling a friend to take me to the ER, after passing out twice from pain all alone in my apartment, and taking a shower so that if someone found me dead, I wouldn't be wearing dirty underwear)

    C-Section for twins at age 31

    I've had a breast reduction back in 2010!

    I was a 32 I before I had the reduction. I am now a 36DD. In Sept. I'm going back under the knife to have breast corrections (hoping they are smaller) and liposuction!

    Then of course the usual tonsillectomy and had my wisdom teeth removed! Lol.

    Nothing says FUN like a good Surgery thread :) But .. it is a diversion from the controversy of egg whites vs. yolks, cardio vs. weights, eating vs. deprivation .. YADA YADA YADA.

    No surgery at all until I was 47. YEA!!!!!!!!!

    Right knee menisectomy - November 2010
    Right knee total knee replacement - March 2011

    Full frontal lobotomy planned for sometime later this year if Target doesn't bring back their Archer Farms natural Cashew/Almond/Peanut Butter.

    Just saying that THAT is gooooood stuff! Nut butter lovers need to unite and call the CEO of Target - tell him to get us some back on the shelves.

    EXACTLY! Whew. I'm so glad someone understands how my mind works. :)
    Heh. Docs told me if I'd waited 10 more minutes, I probably would have been dead.
