  1. I will have my first appt next Friday. I was all excited at first about this surgery, but then I read about the people who've not lost any weight, or only a few pounds. Do I want to go through the pain and expense and not lose any weight? I am so afraid that will happen to me.
  2. I have my first appt next week with Dr Carroll. What should I expect? What all is done at the first visit?
  3. I've heard from several folks who started out heavier than you that have said they have had plastic surgery for loose skin. I am about the size you were when you started your weight loss, and I noticed you also mentioned plastic surgery. Do you have a lot of loose skin? Is it just in the tummy area?
