    Gastric Bypass Surgery Progress Pictures

    I had to go to my parents' house in PA to get my photos that predate 2003, which is the year that I had my gastric bypass surgery. I did not keep any photos of my former self in my possession. For a long time they were too hard for me to look at and showed a part of me that I wanted very much to forget. I am able to look at them now, finally, and embrace and love that person who was. Patients tell me that they cannot even see "me" (who I am now) buried in the woman I once was. Indeed, it was me. Eleven-years later, I've lost 135 pounds and 11 pants sizes thanks to bariatric surgery, plastic surgery, Paleo diet, and exercise. I encourage you to follow the path before you. It is not an easy journey but it is so very well worth it. I cannot even describe the profound changes to my self and my life. Living larger than ever, My Bariatric Life www.mybariatriclife.org
  7. I had my fascia plicated. It hurt a great deal to do so but only for a few days, whereas the results last forever (as long as you don't gain weight). If it would help, you can post your question to plastic surgeons on RealSelf. It would help if you posted photos of your stomach, so that the surgeons can provide a better assessment and recommendation. You really do forget about the pain. But you live wight the results every day.

    My Bariatric Life before weight loss and plastic surgeries

    My Bariatric Life had gastric bypass surgery in July 2003. At that point in her life, she weighed 285 pounds, wore a size 24W, and was on ~10 prescription medications for obesity-related illnesses including diabetes and hypertension. Today My Bariatric Life has a BMI of 23 and wears a size 2 or 4. She is free from hypertension and diabetes and off 9 of 10 of those prescription medications. She owes her life to gastric bypass, plastic surgery, Paleo diet and exercise.
