Well, it's been determined that I have to have my 3 uterine fibroids removed because they are growing at an alarming rate. However, it means I'm basically having 2 pounds removed from my abdomen. This is not a good method for getting to one's goal weight, but I'm sort of pleased that I'll feel better and have a flatter stomach. (Right now, size-wise, I'm the equivalent of 4 months pregnant.) How's that for twisted thinking???

lol I have to admit; that is a little twisted! But hey we all have our quirks I am happy when I go out drinking with friends and end up getting so drunk I puke; becuase then all the calories are gone. See I'm twisted too! Although that hasnt happend since high school lol Glad you are looking at the bright side of things!!

OMG I laughed at that! Thank you for your confession! All I can think of is the line from The Devil Wears Prada "I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight."

hahah see we all have our secret twisted thoughts!! Never think youre alone. More than likely the girl next to you has had the crazy thoughts you have!

lol the only problem is that they are gonna pump you full of salt infused fluids so that you'll have about 4 pounds of bloat to get rid of afterwards lol

I would be thinking the exact same thing,

Katkitten, I just had surgery on Tuesday- how right you are; I was 5 pounds heavier on Wednesday than on Tuesday morning! OTOH, knowing that it's just fluid lets me ignore the scale for a few days (or at least, not take it seriously).

yeah you'll lose it. just drink a LOT of water! lol
