My fab body looks like it's been through a strong wind tunnel for 20 plus years..lol @@mduffield post op was ok..comparing it to the sleeve n gallbladder removal experience it was a breeze I'm only 2 weeks out first time I've ever had stitches they are bothersome I had 475cc silicone with a lift still very swollen should be a full c after I was a dd before surgery went to a mushy saggy a lol . I had to do it my girls were always so good to me had to help em back out lol and thank you xoxo. Now on to accepting my face. .such drastic changes messed with my mental..

@@Veronica Page stay strong! Believe in yourself. I believe in you. You got this. Try and I know it's so haaaaard but learn to appreciate the low moments of this journey so when high moments come you can look back and realize what a bad ass you are! Xoxo. Low moments don't last they may tend to drag on more than what we want..but really u got this! It's a daily struggle for me mentally. My daughter is in sports so it's constantly on the go, grab to eat. I settle for mcds breakfast burrito or cheese stick from a gas station or a slice of pizza and eat the toppings Or I keep drinking more water. ITS A SLIPPERY slope, but those days I remember to pack something or drive by and not stop. I am victorious that day

Got plastic surgery dates....
Aprilhoffman78 replied to Lacowgirl72's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Had my pre op visit today the dr. Was adamant I get the lift now.. He hadn't seen me since the first visit in September and I've lost more weight in the boobs of course, I decided on silicone high profile 500 cc, so nervous about the lift and scars, since I already have so many with the sleeve and gall bladder taken out.. Ugh have to make up my mind by tomorrow ???????????? -

I completely feel ya @mduffield. It's so strange..I even miss aspects of my old body..no one understands unless they've gone through it. I miss my chubby face really bad I'm noticing friends act differently to me, I am me big or small..never knew how many people really paid attention to my previous body that they are now coping with my weight loss..sooo weird. And have so many opinions. .
-
Yes @ zzzombrie I too feel my face and body has aged. My husband thinks I have body dismorphia or image issues since the weightloss lol
-
I'm not sure if it's my gallbladder removal or dumping.. I've learned oil, butter, or anything a bit greasy like ham or if I eat too fast, it's a bathroom rush.
-
I did okay.. I tried ham and wither i ate it too fast and pooped the pants :/ so had to leave early. I have finally started to stall at 111.. good thing.. On a good note I am getting boobs on 12/6 )) Great job everyone and as always thank you for the support!!

@@bdcsail what is that? How well was your recovery with pain medicine? I know I can't have a lot of the pain medications with my sleeve any suggestions? With my excess skin I'm wanting to go bigger but I don't want to go too big.. Thank you for your reply I've been stressing out about this ???? -
