Dede, how did your procedures go?I had TT and liposuction on 12/20 and I love it! I will get arm lift in Dec of 2017, my doc and I prefer to split it up. This allows less stress on body and I cannot afford to be down a full month, because of my job and kids. I'm taking 3wks off for tummy tuck. I have swelling but all of the hanging skin is gone...I'm in "ahhhhhh"

I'm having to on 12/20 skin removal was approved through insurance and I'm paying for difference to get tt. I will get my arms done next yr, I too could not do both surgeries at same time,especially having little ones at home. Can you advise more on pillows and anything that I might need for post tt?

I'm scheduled for arm lift in tj in 12/22. I met with 2 doctors: Dr Victor Gutierrez and Dr cardenas. This was a hard choice since I really think I'm in good hands with both, but I chose Dr Gutierrez since he also specialized in arms, that was an advantage I think he has. I plan on getting lower body lift next year and I might chose Dr cardenas for that procedure, not sure but for now that's how I feel. I just see she does more of the time tucks and those sort of procedures, but I'm not 100% on that yet. I would highly recommend both of these doctors.

June sleeves how is everyone doing?

Hi everyone, cw 165. I was snacking alot during week of my bday but back on track. So happy. Just bought bathing suit and look fab! Size 10. Cloths size medium.

Hi June sleevers, how's everyone doing? I had my 9 mnth check up and I am at 173, Sw 284. I'm still good with my eating mostly protein as veggies. I look great and feel fabulous! I asked my Dr about skin removal if it's covered by insurance and he said stomach area is but not arms. So the stomach would not b a tummy tuck only skin removal but I could pay the difference, requirement is to loose min 100 lb which I have. So at my 1 yr well go over all that. So excited.

How's everyone doing? Cw 172 wearing a large can squeeze into 1 medium and man it feels good to turn heads again...

Yes, I can eat more but I try not to by weighing my food safety I know how much fits. I went free music 3.0 Oz to 3.3 because my NUT said to go from 800 calories to 900-1000? Not healthy to eat so little. I still lose weight just very slow. But yes, I too am scared to gain weight so I'm very careful. Sw:285,current 179 yes saggy arms and stomach but I look great. Got my groove back

Hi June sleevers, where's everyone at? CW 179 finally getting out of the 180's. After I went down from 200 it's so much slower to loose "slowly but surely"

Watch the episodes of MY 600 LB LIFE, that should b a motivator,daily. When I watch them at night I tend to not snack and get up and start exercising.

How's everyone doing? Cw 183 I don't think I'm loosing much hair like I was.

try going back to basics, go over all the information that the nut gave you at the beginning. Example, my weakness if Snacks at night, so she suggested that i make a rule that if i'm going to eat at night its only at the dinner table. However, i only have healthy foods, so if i'm going to snack its ok because its all Protein. I stick to the 30/20/30 rule so that should help too. 7 months after my sleeve i still try not to eat starches, STICK TO PROTEIN SO THAT YOU STAY FULL LONGER.

let's do it: start w: 284Surgery w:270 Current w:189

Cw 189, going to increase strength training started this week HAPPY NEW YR

I down to 194 and loving it, size 14. Yes hair loss but no buggy compared to pros like being able to keep up with 2 yr old and roll around with him. Also, I'm able to be in the picture instead of always taking them . Feel so much more confident and sexy again.
