I Want To See Before & After Pics!



Recommended Posts

Stunning. Are you planning on getting plastics? Your new photo doesn't look like you'd need it' date=' but just curious. What a difference.[/quote']

I am scheduling a lower body lift for June. I hide my skin very well. Going to do the whole shebang and get my arms, legs, and breasts also. Insurance is paying for my lower lift. Waiting to hear about my arms and legs.

I just went through all 31 pages of this thread and still want to see more! You're all sooo inspiring. I love how the eyes pop open in all the 'after' photos (I hate how my cheeks make my eyes look small when I smile). I'll know my surgery date by the end of the week, looking at all the before & after pics has made me all the more excited/anxious. I can't wait to be able to post my pics in this thread. Congrats to you all!

May Kelley, what "reason" did you give for needing it so that it was approved by insurance?

I didn't. My plastic surgeon wrote a letter and I was approved. I never imagined that insurance would cover it without major issues and documentation.

I'M SOOOO THANKFUL FOR MY SLEEVE!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      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.
