Ok, ok, OKAY! I get it.

So I called Jessica at Stillwater, I’m pretty sure she told me one time that they have caller ID, so no shame in my game now!

She said that I probably can not talk Dr. Capizzi into breast implants at the time of my lift. She explained (again, he had done this the TWO times I visited with him) that the tissue at the top of my breasts, which would be the only tissue holding it up, is too loose and “thin” and needs time to strengthen. Damn it.

But again, like I have been in all my little excursions on my weight loss journey I listened to some key words that stick and I play back. And what I heard was “talk him into…” I do not want to “talk him into” anything that has to do with 1.) His professional judgment. 2.) That I really already knew why. 3.) He’ll have a knife and I’ll be asleep.

I suppose I am being a brat, and I don’t want to go against a plan we already had.

I’ve actually seen some of my own friends have implants done at the same time, and they had been very unhappy. (one looked fabulous, but I think it was because she had MUCH smaller breasts then most)

I actually called an acquaintance that has ties to another plastic surgeon, and she told me the same thing’s I have been told. I got to speak with the surgeon later on today and he said all the exact same thing’s the Dr. Capizzi did, and gave him (Dr. C) compliments. I felt horrible talking to someone else. But it actually made me feel a lot better about my breast surgery.

So basically what I learned today was…
You know when your husband begs and begs for something, you’ve said no and for very valid reasons, that at times he actually agrees with. Then after he plays o the internet and watches videos about motorcycles (fill in the blank with what you need to make this an appropriate vision) and finally one day you snap and say…

“FINE! Do what you want!!”

And you usually follow it up with some sort of, when you get in some horrible tragic accident; don’t call me and what exactly would you like to tell your child when you’re laid up in the hospital?

Really you don’t mean that he can do it (and really I dare any man that reads this to even try it) you’re just annoyed that rationale hasn’t set in yet?

I told myself that today. I know that Dr. Capizzi has great reasons as to why he does not like to put implants in at the same time as a lift. I just had to ask, ask, and ask again. I would feel better that I felt annoying right now, apposed to HATING the results because I didn’t listen to the professional to begin with.

Long day today. I have exciting news about tomorrow and not just me pre-op appointment.
