Date was August 10, 2012 total loss 166 ..28 to goal:)

I am 9.5 months post op and lost 165 total..34 to goal weight. Yes it is possible

I am 5 5 size 16.. I just had a panniculectomy done a month ago tummy looks so much better.and I feel great! Thank you all

Hw 379 SW 336 Cw 217 Gw 185 Thank you all so much!! I am trying to figure out how to make my weight chart thing current

Not sure why all these pic uploaded.opps

Have 32 to go!..

I am a little sore, but not as bad as I thought! I will post some pics when swelling is down. My goal is 185:D..wish me luck

August 10 2012 was date Hw379 Sw336 Cw225 154 total, 111 since sleeve Monday I had a panniculectomy done! When I get to goal I want thight lift. Breakfast:eac vanilla lean shake Snack: banana Lunch:chicken salad snack pack 5 crackers Snack: greek yogurt Dinner: half wendys chili bowl Snack:straw berries 2 light whipped cream

Dang! !!! Looking good

Oh and in was told I had 2 pounds of skin on tummy and 15 total pounds on body so that was a misunderstanding so as of now after two pounds of skin on my tummy I still have 38 pounds to lose till goal

I am not sure what stipulations are. I dont think I have any. I did have a rash and was put on a steroid cream. My panni hangs low but not completely over my lady area. I went in and complained about irritation and when i do Zumba it hurts to run or jump. I have lost 154 total but 110 since sleeve in August. Leaving me with skin hanging on tummy arms and thighs. I am 39 pounds to goal. I have more to lose. But my skin enable s me to exercise the way I could. Doc says this could help with encouragement and be more motivation to lose the rest of my weight. The doctor took pictures and wrote up a letter for insurance. Three weeks later got sn approval! I believe it depends on what type of coverage you company that you have insurance through depends on what is covered. I may be wrong..I have bcbstx ppo. Good luck friends. I will post before and after pics for you to see! Thanks for the motivating comments♥

Ins approved bcbstx 8 month post opp 152 pound weight loss..so nervous..estimated 15 pounds of skin then 27 more to lose to my goal weight! !

Before quote was 8500 without ins. It all depends on how much skin and hours involved. 8 to 10000 is average price in Houston for full tummy tuck

Opps 600 dollar deductible

With 600 copay n 20 % of surgery. 5 hours total..lots of skin and my support brace cost 100..my total cost will be 6200

I got my approval today for panniculectomy, I am going to pay cash for remaining for full tummy tuck! ! Date set April 15..whoo hoo..

I have a huge smile on my face!! thank you all so much. you have made my day!!! Response to the question: I watch calorie intake,lots of water,zumba twice weekly:)

Here's my pics..still have more to lose [ATTACH]10555[/ATTACH]
