Tummy tuck *pics*

[tbear 0]

You look great. :clap2: I know I am at the beginning of losing the weight but I know I will be at that stage someday where I will need the Tummy Tuck. I dont like surgery :nervous and am not sure how I managed to get through being banded. I know I will have many questions down the road. But right now I am taking it one step at a time. Again you look fantastic. I hope I can look that good someday too.

I didn't get a chance to see the pics it looks like they have been removed/deleted. Is there anywhere else I can view the pics? I myself will need a Tummy Tuck in the future and so I'm curious to see your transformation

Thought I'd go ahead and add mine to this thread as well....

The post-op pics are less than 24 hours after surgery.

About 3 weeks post op, and about 10 months post op

Hey Chickie - The drugs must still be throwing me off a bit. I thought I was posting my pics to the PS Before & After Thread last night not your personal thread. Sorry, for the mess up. I've loved reading your PS thread and everyother post of yours I've stumbled on. You have been and are an inspiration to me throughout my band journey.

Chickie:You look incredible! Did you lose additional weight in the ten months post-surgery? I bet nobody can believe you were ever heavy you look like a natural skinny mini!

It's ok! I wasn't worried at all. I just realised that a lot of my surgery pics were not viewable by anyone but me for some reason (It's odd, really)

I am glad I was able to be of some inspiration.

Thank you!

I lost about another 30lbs in the first few months after the tuck. I haven't lost anything lately. And I do get some very surprised looks when I tell people that I was overweight, I have had people gasp, and say "No way!!" at times too.
