HELLO EVERYONE!!!! It may be cold and cloudy outside today here, but it is such a beautiful day for myself. I just got back from the Doctors office. Great visit as always but this time was the best visit ever.

First of all, I was informed today that at 155 pounds, I have reached my doctors goal weight. We set this weight goal 2 yrs. and 3 months ago. 2 years ago, I was 267 pounds with a BMI of 47.3. Today I am 155 pounds with a BMI of 27.5.

Second of all, I have made an appointment for a consultation to discuss a Tummy Tuck. I am so excited and proud of myself.

Only bad thing about today, I am on a liquid diet until tomorrow morning and I am getting hungry! But I will manage my way through the day.

Has anyone had a tummy tuck done yet? I'm sure someone out there reading this has had it done. I'm nervous about having it done, but it is something I want done so I will have to suck it up and get past the nerves.

I dont have the funds either. Luckily I was told today that they would if I have like rashes and sores and stuff. I have a constant rash above my pubic area from the sagging skin, I get yeast infections in my bellybutton from my muffin top and between my folds, i occasionally get sores. So my doctor thinks i should not have a problem getting approved.

Congratulations!!!

My friend had one done. She said the first 3 days were horrible but after that things improved every day. She said she definitely does not regret having it done and would do it again if needed.

She said the results are awesome!!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
