but then didn't in the first place. I can go without a bra now but find I am just more satisfied with one so I usually just get a sports bra or something simple and stretchy.

I had a breast reduction so do not have to even
wear 1 if I don’t want to. If I do, cannot wear the underwire deals. Used to be the breasts would enter the room about 5 minutes before I did, hated that!!
breast reduction
Double D's here -- can relate to the boobs entering the room first. LOL I have thought about a reduction -- if only I had the insurance coverage. I think the extra up front contributes to my low back problems. Was the surgery a difficult thing to go through? Is it painful?
Areolar reduction?
Has anyone undergone an areolar reduction?
breast reduction
I am seriously thinking of having this done because I'm so tired of aching shoulders and not being able to wear the clothes I really want to wear. I am just a big baby when it comes to going under the knife! Has anyone gone through this, was it very painful and how long is the recovery time? TIA!
breast reduction
I keep mulling over the same thing, but I am 50. I have huge grooves in my shoulders, and have had cervical disk problems, fusion and all. I wonder if that is why I have neck problems because I never had an accident or anything. I am a 36G or H if I can find it. Forget about breast-feeding my kids, I felt like I would fall over from the weight of them and couldn't wait until they went back to normal (for me anyway :) I am only 5Ɖ, slightly overweight. I think being so huge on top makes you look heavier anyway. I still think about having it done. I am sure my ins would pay for it, just so afraid of the pain and scars, but now you have me thinking again!
stress reduction
My ex-hub wrote some papers while he was doing his PhD in psychology on stress reduction. I typed his papers both before and after we were divorced. It made sense to me. One of the things he said that you work all week to make a paycheck to pay your bills. He said you have to consider yourself "a bill out of your paycheck that needs to be paid" just like any other bill that you owe. You need to pay a bill owed to yourself for hard work in the form of whatever you can afford out of each paycheck no matter what the amount that you may deem to afford meaning a new outfit, pedicure, meal out, movie, whatever makes you relaxed and feel happy. Set an amount aside even if it is just $20-$25. It gives you something to looks forward to. We have been divorced for 15 years, but I still remember this and still do this. It makes me feel good because I know I have to pay this bill to myself and it makes me feel good.
I had a friend who had skin reduction
for her arms and the so-called plastic surgeon measured one arm and took the same amount out for both arms. This left a gaping wound that the dodo couldn't close. Mind you the incision was the length of her upper arm. Grrrrr.
If it were me, I think I'd have opted for selective reduction in
1 lb. & ? ounces? Mighty small. These will be million-dollar babies to the 8th power.
This just makes me happy that I had a breast reduction!

Mederma worked miracles on my breast reduction scars.
You might try that.
What the women wear or don't wear is not the
issue here. They can wear what they want. The issue is what is actually going on in the compound and the laws that are being broken.
Whatever you want to wear - sm
You are going to love the Lion King! When I went a couple years ago there were people in dresses and suits, but a lot of other people, including myself, in just a nicer outfit - slacks and a sweater. Some people were even in jeans.
I got some to wear in the car when
we went on vacation last summer. They were great. I could actually work and not hear anything else going on in the car. However, I never use them at home because they are SOO big. I have my favorite pair that I wear, but when they wear out, I guess I will be wearing my expensive BIG ones! They do work, though
what to wear?
Need a bit of help. I am a full-figured woman (26) and have been invited to a fancy, fancy wedding. What am I going to wear? I do not wear skirts or dresses. I have looked online for plus size fancy occasion pant sets but cannot find anything that looks good. They all look real cheap. For this affair the cost of an outfit will be no problem. I just need advise/help on finding something. Probably need size 26/28 as I would rather get bigger than smaller and then have it tailored.
There is no way I would wear the one ...sm
with the jewelry hanging from it. That irks me. I just want to grab the thing and jerk it off. LOL. The one with the crystals in the contact lense without the thing hanging I think is cool.
yes some did wear them
My mom used to tell me about it. I was not born then either. She actually had one. The underskirt is something like the slip they wear under a square dance dress, they are made of very stiff tulle/mesh.
Mom said they get that stiff because they would spray them with spray starch/sugar water and hang them to dry.
The most of the poodle skirts you will see now are made of felt. You can get a pattern for it in the Halloween catalog for the major pattern companies. Look on line for McCall or Simplicity.
You should wear them...
I'm sure she'd be glad you liked keeping her close at heart and also you probably look very beautiful in them and she would be glad you are enjoying these earthly things that she took the time to purchase. Just remember, life is too short, and the jokes about "giving me that jacket" were showing how much you loved her taste in apparel, so why not wear them and know that your sister would have thought you look great in them! JMO.

When my mom died I took about 80% of her clothes. Right now I cannot fit into them but we were the same height, though she weighed about 10 pounds less. But I can easily wear all her shirts and dresses...once I lose some weight, put on 35 pounds after she died. It makes me feel good to have her stuff and some of the smaller tops I have given to my daughters who are thrilled to have a little bit of grandma with them.
That's why I don't wear them
Too expensive and too restrictive, but I'm small enough to get away with it.
Probably not Pentecostal either. We wear
pants lots of times (even to church). We don't have home church meetings either. We have church in the sanctuary like most other denominations. 
I normally wear two rings;
my wedding ring on my left hand and an opal on my right hand. For some reason, I always have to take my wedding ring off because it slows me down if I'm wearing it yet I keep my opal on because I feel it slows me down if it's off. ???? Strange I know.
I also wear Ace bands on my wrists. Have done this for a few years now because I don't want the big CT and it slows me down now if I don't have those on.
I don't wear mine either.
We've been married since 1998 and I wear my rings maybe once a week for only an hour or so at a time...I am so hard on jewelry I'm afraid I would either destroy them or lose them. Some of the things I do around here could get them crushed on my finger as well, so I even consider them a safety hazard! I only wear them when we go out. My husband never wears his either except when we go out. All of them are kept in my little jewelry box so we know where they are. It's never been an issue, but we're not that mainstream of a couple either!
None, never wear a bra, hate it. nm

Whatever it is you choose to wear...
just make sure it compliments the bridal party's ensemble.
It doesn't necessarily have to be a solid color, but if you choose a dress with floral patterns, make sure it doesn't clash too much with the MOB or the rest of the bridal party.
Go here (but in case it does not show) Smarter.com and search mother of the groom dress. It will give you several online stores. At least you can get an idea of what you might want.

My little princess would not wear
a collar! I was so worried that if she gets out she will not come back or be returned cause she wouldn't have a collar on with a tag. She just kept pawing at it and one day got her bottom jaw stuck trying to take it off. I gave up....
I'm glad I don't wear it all.
What would you wear to this occasion? (sm)
Mother and father-in-law's 50th anniversary part, at a country club, 7 p.m., not a dinner, just sort of a reception with cake and such, wine...how formal?
I just wear flats
I'm actually taller than my husband so I always wear flats. I think they're so much more comfortable for me anyway. Heels actually make the balls of my feet hurt.
It seems that is how they like to wear their hair...
I don't think there is anything specific behind it. Maybe they believe it conservative? 
Use it up, Wear it out, Make it do, or Do without!

Maybe because no one has said to them they SHOULDN'T wear it...
nothing uglier than muffin top under too tight shirts, fat thighs in too tight jeans, sucking down an soda and eating a burger. Some people need to look in a mirror, or better yet, shop at a real department store, spend some money on good quality clothing, stop trying to dress like a teenager, and bring along a friend who will tell you how you REALLY look in the clothes you try on.
Anyone ever buy swim wear online?
I'm having a heck of a time finding a bathing suit anywhere locally (Wisconsin). The only place I see them are online, and I'm a bit hesitant about purchasing because it's a hassle returning, etc. Any suggestions? Goin' on a cruise in December. Thanks for your suggestions.
No, But I Only Wear an Engagement Ring....
It's not the biggest diamond in the world so it doesn't bother me. The whole "bare wrists" is another story, however.
I wear my rings all the time
I don't think I can get them off if I wanted to. LOL. My husband only wears his ring on special occasions. He can't wear any jewerly. His fingers swell up. He also can't wear necklaces or watches. It used to bother me, but as long as he wears it when we go out, I'm fine with it.
Wear a soft t-shirt for a while and
leave it in her favorite place to sleep so she will have your scent. Mine love to sleep on my clothes!
Do your dogs wear clothes?
little doggie sweaters or hats or boots?
mine don't. I had a dog once that I tried to put a sweater on but I lost.
My cats wear tutus. :)
he, he
I think it is perfectly fine, as you have to wear it, not him!
I did not pick out the exact ring, but definitely discussed the cut and style I wanted. My feeling is if a man truly cares about the woman he would want to get her the ring SHE wants, not the one he can afford or the one he picks out. I'd be more worried about that to be honest. JMO
Either 1 or 2 - whichever I could possibly wear somewhere else. nm

La Venta Inn wedding - what to wear???
I've been invited to a wedding in CA at the LA Venta Inn the weekend of Thanksgiving. I would like some input on what to wear. Looks like a pretty nice place and I know they are trying for a sunset wedding ceremony - like around 4:30 with the reception at the Inn afterwards. I know it gets cool in the evenings, but if anyone has any suggestions on what to wear - I would appreciate it. Sounds like a formal or semi-formal affair. Thanks.
I used to wear gas perms years ago (sm)
and if I am remembering correctly, it seems like I was told to periodically scrub the lenses with some baking soda to remove all the deposits (I have a lot of allergies, too, and they'd get covered in the gunk). Seemed to make them fit and feel better.
There are some good ones - wish they'd wear badges or something!
That reminds me of the situation my cousin ran into - she used to work for AOL customer service answering people's calls about problems with AOL. She was fired for averaging too much time helping the customers!!!
Really now. Do you think MT companies really care? I wear
xxxx
Same here..neither my husband nor I wear our bands.
they are just plain wide gold bands but he is prohibited from wearing his at work (this is 12-14 hr a day, so by bother putting them on just to sleep in?) because he could lose a finger, etc. on equipment. Mine also got tighter, etc and I previously worked in a physician office and had to wash my hands constantly and the soap, etc would get underneath and cause irritation. Like poster above, plan on keeping my husband after 29 years... with or without the bands on our fingers.
winter wedding what to wear?
What does a guest wear to a winter wedding?
Better start with the clothing they wear
or lack of. After that all downhill.
Too much bleaching can also wear down enamel :(
With hard brushing and excess bleaching you likely will pay a big price in the future.
PS: People in Hollywood look like way from veneers, not bleaching.
Be gentle on your teeth. :)
Do you wear contact lenses? sm
I had giant cell papilloma on the inside of my lid once from my lens. Not painful, occasionally itchy, but really not bothersome. Doc told me to stop wearing the lenses a few weeks, maybe gave me drops (happened a long time ago), and the condition resolved.
Hope you heal soon, whatever it is.
tell him you'd have to wear more revealing clothing
They look pretty, I wear them, if I am going somewhere special.
To make them look real, I stole an idea from Marilyn Monroe. I cut the lashes in half and then I use the resulting minilashes and put them starting from mideye to the edge of my eye nearest the ear. Be careful just to put a little glue. Then, you can put eye liner over it. I have very blonde (almost platinum) hair and eyebrows, so it can't be heavy handed. Also if you use the half lashes, you can put a light color like cream under your eye brow arch and on the lid, with a bit of brown in the crease. Blend it together and it will look glamorous yet natural. Only you will know, because it looks like a lot of mascara on the edge, or you are blessed with long eyelashes! Have fun with it. I do.
I think it's how the "leader" TELLS them to wear it. UGH! - nm
