I'm down 50 lbs on my preop liquid diet and am schedule for surgery Dec 1st. What were some of your biggest struggles in the early days? How is your skin if I can ask. I'm already seeing a lot of sagging. I've been this way for years so I don't expect to get out of this without needing some plastic surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sherry24184 253 Posted October 13, 2014 My biggest struggle was Constipation. Other than that it was really smooth sailing. I had brachioplasty 6 weeks ago in Mexico because my arms were HUGE. That was a breeze as well. I hope to get TT and boob for Christmas. My thighs are a hot mess but as long as I don't wear short shorts I'm okay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
