All thru this time the breast implant industry recruited the entertainment industry as their primary shills, their fundamental agent of proliferation, their machinery for the dessimation of the breast enhancement product. Although the PS’s were surgeons, and they made full use of the American medical establishment, the industry had not evolved a strong employment and utilization of the medical system for the purpose of promoting its products.

PS innovations along these lines were in the process of development, notably the emphasis of medical terms to describe being flat chested, laying the groundwork for the claim that women who had small breasts were suffering from a medical condition that is properly cured by breast augmentation. Theories were being presented in respectable medical journals saying that small breastedness was a disease, with overriding psychological traumas complicating the underlying pathology, establishing breast augmentation as the easiest, most effective, and direct cure.

The underlying agenda of all this was to establish the medical community as major shills for the PS enterprise, but it never succeeded at the time. Then came the silicone scandals. After nearly a decade of illness, of fighting the dollar feeding tentacles, heads, and strong arms of the the silicone giant, the truth broke through, finally.

The legal and liability for all the damage tho fell into the laps of the implant manufacturers, while the PS’s themselves remained protected from judgement day, the Holocaust, like they had a Borg shield. Pampered darlings of media and inheriting the reverence of title from the medical image (PS’s are doctors, usually) they escaped with naught even a scolding. But alas they had all taken major income losses, as the breast implant business, now moved to the *saline* implant products , suffered an enormous down-slide.

The exploitation of overweight women by the breast reduction industry applies mainly to white overweight American women. This has had the effect of greatly degenerating the appeal of the group to the opposite sex. There are so many breast reductions in this group, that once one learns to recognize the reductions, one can see that the botched and deformed reductions in the population vastly outnumber the botched breast augmentations. Most noticeable is the figural hole effect.

This means that the total shape of the figure prior to the breast reduction went with the natural size of the breasts, but after the breast reduction there is a major discontinuity in the body parts of the woman. The overweight figures that result are bizarre, and not natural, nor are they considered attractive, however it is not considered politically correct to point this out.

There was a case where a man was accused of sexual harassment of a woman who had had a breast reduction. Upon investigation, the man had never said anything at all, ever to the woman, but the woman was upset because of the way the man would avoid looking at her.

The woman was fat, and her fat figure was distorted in a severe way and the man did not find pleasure in looking at her, but the woman found this to be a great insult and claimed sexual harassment. The problem is that the men will not say anything, and this man had not said anything at all, but it was not enough. The woman felt that he was under the obligation to not think anything either.

I plan on doing it the hard way. I was just jokin’ around mostly. I don’t have as much to lose as some folks who post here but it seems like the closer you are to the ideal weight the harder it (the weight) is to go. I have at least lost what Rezulin caused me to gain and am starting to lose the initial weight gain that came upon me 5 years ago with that summer-long period. My glycemic control has been great when following the Zone.

That has been the best thing for my control That and lots of insulin sensitizing exercise. It is a paradox that is what many Cysters need when they are getting out of control, yet because of their symptoms and crummy health, they don’t hardly feel like it. Many are fatigued because of the IR, treat the IR and the energy returns. This (fatigue) was also the only symptom my DIL had that he was becoming diabetic last year.

Only he didn’t realize how tired he really was until they discovered the diabetes, treated it and he started to feel better. He is 71 and could now runs rings around many half his age. A return to control has gave me more energy than I have enjoyed in 5 years. Just knowing what the heck was wrong was the biggest step so I could get the help I need. Forgive the joke about liposuction. I can’t help clowning around and lightening the mood sometimes and I really would not get it and a dr. probably wouldn’t consider it for me since my extra 30-40 lbs may make me fat but not morbidly obese.

No, I’m pretty sure that is not considered a medical necessity. Also I think I’d be really afraid of surgical treatment of depression. Plastic surgeons are supposed to screen patients to try to weed out the depressed people. The patients should be in a good state of mind when deciding to have plastic surgery, so they can make a good decision.
