jenjen262 21 Posted September 7, 2016 I am super excited and scared. I will be scheduling the surgery tomorrow. It has been such a long journey to get here! I never thought this day would come. I have about 80-100 pounds to lose. I am concerned about loose skin and needing plastic surgery to fix it (which I can't afford). I am 5'9 and 245 pounds. Any words of encouragement would be appreciated!! Thanks:) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KristenLe 5,979 Posted September 7, 2016 Congrats on the approval! Don't stress about things that may or may not happen especially when you have very little control over it! Just focus on getting to a healthy weight by following your plan! Sent from my KFFOWI using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
