My Plastics Journey - My first one (of several)

If you look like that Diva, I seriously can't talk to you anymore. I'm sure the jealousy I would feel would seeth through the computer screen and infect you ;) Just playin'. You already look fabulous and not boxy at all. I feel like I have the sponge bob square butt/back thing going on and I think some lip is needed on my waist in the back. Can't wait to hear more about your experience. As always you are a step ahead and I love watching your progression! Hugs and healing!

Thanks Ladies!!!! I'm sooo glad I'm done with all this :) It will be fun taking photos and posting the final product in a few months.

It's been a long and nerve wrecking ride. For me and here out I'm just going to recover, do my workouts, eat properly and do a tiny bit of spot toning until I fit in my itty bitty fours. LOL!! I did buy some Size 0 jeans from Zappos which based on the measurements are exactly the same as those 4's hanging on my closet door. It will be fun putting those on! Vanity sizing or not. However long that takes, I just don't care. I'm here!!!

:cheers2:

Thanks for the encouragement favored and M2G. :smile1: I'm sooo glad I did all of this, even if it means some pain, swelling and bruising - even the setback with my workouts. Ugghh I think that's what I hated the most. It is what it is tho!

Here's a pic I just took right now! OMG OMG OMG!!! I see KNEES!!! The shape so far is incredible... my surgeon is a MASTER!!! *happy dance* I'm so excited to see the final product in 6 months. It will be a good good day!

Heehee thanks! I'm all giddy about it! ;o) I haven't seen my knees in 25 years... it's a GREAT DAY!! I even just right now got a compliment from a co-worker - she knows about my procedure but she said they are coming along great. She's interested now in lipo... haha :)

I wanted to throw in an update because just... WOW!!! For MONTHS I've been stressing due to all the swellings, weight gains and whatever else comes with plastic surgery... however - as always with time comes healing and RESULTS!!! Every single day now I'm seeing humungous differences!! I'm over the moon right now, and THANKING EVERYTHING GOOD that I chose the right surgeons. They performed literally miracles for me. I. AM. HAPPY.

In the last 4 weeks alone I've dropped NEARLY 15 INCHES off my whole body!!!! YAYAYEEESSSSS!!!!!

It was 28" 2 days ago when I measured but heck since last night its smaller now. I had a belt where the holes go all the way around it and I made a mark measured to 27" for my "goal" a long time ago. I can buckle it smaller than that. I only do the measuring tape every 2 weeks, so gotta wait... heeheeheeeee!!!!

*In Heaven*

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
