Dr Stacey[emoji40][emoji72]is an angel-she does heavenly work, what a beautiful work was done for you. I can see why you would want to travel 1/2way across the USA for her. Congratulations to you and her for a job well done![emoji106][emoji12]

She’s the best :). I was lucky enough to be living in Aurora Colorado when I had my surgery, and moved at about 8 weeks post op. If/when I can get my thighs done I will definitely travel back to her. I can’t thank her enough, and would recommend her to everyone!! [emoji173]️

This post moves me to tears. I am so close to being a normal weight, and I have been dreaming of having corrective plastic surgery on my body. And when you said you nearly cried when you saw your flat belly, I nearly cried! I'm really happy for you!




Me too ..... THIS whole post is making me cry .....

Me again ..... so nursejenny07... I am going to pm you and hopefully you can be my new bestie [emoji170]
I had Roux en y 13 years ago and ZERO problems ..... lost 160 lbs and kept it off all these years.
Dr Rumsfield is my hero at Scripps San Diego as Kaiser outsourced to Scripps in the "old days" and the kindest, most graceful Dr. I have ever met. He treated us as "normal" whether we were 500lbs or 120lbs.
SOOOOOOO I've met and interviewed what seems like a gazillion RECONSTRUCTIVE surgeons and love a few.
Due to life changes (and a wonderful divorce ;) ) I have still not had reconstruction. It's time.
So we just moved to Denver and I didn't want to start the search again ..... and miraculously perfectly I just found your post and am SO SO SO GRATEFUL ..... I will call Dr Folk today and get an appointment.
You are my hero, thank you so much for sharing such a detailed diary..... we're all terrified of this next stage and I'm sure you've helped so many people ..... [emoji170][emoji170][emoji170][emoji170][emoji170][emoji170][emoji170][emoji170] 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Oh did I mention YOU LOOK GORGEOUS ... the difference is a work of art..... your Dr is a sculptor. [emoji170][emoji170][emoji170]

I think your body lift is the best I've ever seen, and I've looked at a LOT of before and after pics! In my case, I'm still pre-op but know my body will be a mess, as my skin already hangs badly. My apron is almost to my knees and in the last few years my pubic mound started enlarging, and now hangs between my legs as well. I guess I need to start saving now, because that 22K price tag is going to be difficult for me. Your pictures though, gave me hope that my body can look more "normal" in the future. Your work was fantastic!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
