    Oh, Just Another Plastics Story pt 2

    Plastics update! It’s been so long I forgot about these threads Mood: Happy Current weight:154 (no measurements as I can’t find my tape measure) I’m still very happy with my outcomes but obviously I see little things I want fixed. I would love more fat grafting to my behind and some scar revisions as most of my scars became hypertrophic (I knew the risk and it was still worth it - I just need to have them revised at some point) I think that happens to many people post plastics. Plastics is probably just the next rabbit hole. videos of this years swim suit and showing scars (WLS and plastics) FullSizeRender.mov FullSizeRender.mov
  2. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Whaaaaaaaat? Me too? That's right 😅 I decided to go ahead and (silently) have plastics done. This mommy had a makeover yesterday and is very happy with the results so far. Still very early in my recovery but I wanted to document as much as I could before I forgot. Procedures: Mommy Makeover (breast lift w/o implants and extended tummy tuck with lipo of sides) Where: Miami baby! Southbeach body here I come 😜 Why: the usual reasons... I've been thinking about it forever and finally took the plunge When: Jan 03, 2020 Still early out and I'm pretty laid up so ill update when I can! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

    pregnant- 3 months after surgery

    Congratulations!
  5. GERD is completely resolved. I have maintained my weightloss but I can lose unintentionally if I eat “clean”. I never lost hair with any surgery (but I took L-Lysine, do a bit of research if you’re curious) It wasn’t painful. It was done laparoscopically and I had a pain management plan ahead of time. Good Luck ❤️

    1 Year Post-Op Update

    Amazing! Congratulations
  9. Sleeved Nov 2017 then Revised July 2019 (for GERD, hernia, sleeve torsion etc) Almost immediately after no more issues with GERD. I developed a stricture early out but it was dilated and resolved. I initially lost more weight (around 15lbs) but it wasn’t where I or my surgeon wanted me to be so I gained it back. My weight may fluctuate a few lbs on either side of my goal but that is usually due to events I wasn’t hungry immediately after surgery but that’s normal for me, hunger returned and it was no big deal as I had already had a return on hunger a year before with VSG. Some people (myself included) have a experienced a change in restriction from VSG to RNY (less, more or different restriction) I actually had an easier recovery with the revision. It was a short learning curve with new bathroom habits. Overall very satisfied.

    Cleaning up diet Pre Surgery

    I removed additional sugar. Naturally sweet things like fruit I ate occasional but I gave up any sugar that I had to add my myself and switched over to a substitute (stevia). It was tough at first but it helped to practice it for a longer period instead of fighting against it because it was too sudden.
  15. FYI: At only a month post op, not many of us are allowed to eat sandwiches (according to post op diet plans) You are still early out so there’s a chance your restrictions with kick in eventually, or rather you’ll recognize what it feels like sooner Don’t give up!

    Passed My Psych Evaluation

    Insurance company timelines are all over the place when it comes to approvals. I think the normal length seems to be 2-4 weeks after submitting. After about 2 week I probably would call insurance directly to check but that’s because I’m impatient 😂

    I had to look this up! Air fryers cook with circular heated air, toaster ovens use more direct heat https://inductionpros.com/differences-between-an-air-fryer-and-a-toaster-oven/
