Last week, I had the “opportunity” to get stitches on my arm after dishes fell out of the cupboard. I’m still not sure how it all happened—if I was truly not paying attention or if there was some sort of Tetris game of dishes in the cupboard for which I was not aware. Either way, stitches in the arm. Blah!
Unfortunately, it dawned on me AFTER the stitches were put in, that it would have been a great time to ask that the doc put a vacuum in and suck some fat out. Always a day late…Ugh. Although, now that I think about it, I would have been a little lopsided…I’m sure I had a couple dishes still in the cupboard for a repeat performance. I could have solved something for my right arm heavy-sidedness. Teeter….totter.
Anyway, as I shared my self-made liposuction thoughts with a few others, conversations ensued. While several laughed/smiled and shook their head (seems to be an ongoing process around me), one person brought up that now a person can have fat transferred from one section of his/her body to another. So it is basically a LipoRecycleSuction? I have to say, I just don’t get it…
Seriously, the comment was, that I could have fat transferred from one area of my body to another…for instance, from my arm to my butt.
While a bit speechless (which rarely happens) the only thing I could think of was, “No thanks, Girl Scout Cookies go on sale Sunday…the case that I ordered are sure to do the same thing.” I was simply thinking it would be better to throw the fat in the trash can…down the drain…melted on the dog’s food (like we do with bacon)…anywhere. Call me crazy, but I really don’t need to recycle it. I mean, I guess if there is a fat transplant list, I would be o.k. with donating it to some skinny chic. Transplant: Yes. LipoRecycleSuction: Not so much.
Now, I realize we live in a time that it is cool to be “green,” but recycling fat? Really? I can promise you that it was some skinny person that came up with that idea. And, said skinny person, probably didn’t have much to transfer, nor did she sweat like crazy when doing Zumba to Meghan Trainor’s All About the Bass or Sir Mix-A-Lot’s Baby Got Back.
