I'm dreading the thought of getting plastics. I always viewed myself as a tough person because I've given birth twice without pain meds. After my sleeve surgery when I woke up in recovery and was in so much pain I really started to rethink plastics because that's a even more painful surgery. My Tummy Tuck or breast lift are fully covered but I don't want to have them done at different times. I would much rather have a tummy tuck and breast lift done the same day, so that I only have to worry about recovering once. My fear of another surgery will more than likely lead me to paying out of pocket, instead of settling for the free surgery. I'm also getting a nose job in the future and I will probably get the nose job before I get a tummy tuck and lift. The nose job doesn't scare me because I've wanted it done for years. I'm praying that my skin will bounce right back after I lose the weight and so far I think everything is looking good.

I've had a nose job TT BA x3 and nose job was what hurt the most I'm going to have my TT revised because I gained at least 100 lbs since I had this one done.

Me too! I lost a 100lbs and had a TT and all bat gained it back again. I was hoping not to have a revision as it was a difficult surgery although I recovered quite well not I've never been balanced on both sides completely as my surgeon also did Lipo on my flanks and they are not completely symmetrical but it's not noticeable under all my extra weight.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
