Wow that is a very dramatic difference!!! Was your surgery covered by insurance or did you have to do it on your own? How can you tell when it's fat or skin leftover? My stomach is definitely getting flatter, but I still have t his area (roll) over my bellybutton that I feel like isn't getting flatter and I'm curious if it will be an issue.....

Insurance did pay for the procedure. I know that there was fat, but it didn't seem to be an issue with any of the surgeons I consulted. They removed 7lbs of tissue plus they did Lipo too. I had my post-op appt today and he said I should flatten out some more and I go back in 4 months.

You look fantastic ! That's my big concern...what if when I lose the weight I still have to stay covered because of excess skin. My insurance won't pay and I can't afford it. So happy for you. You are doing great and look super.

Congrats on your new look! Are you willing to share where you went for PS and how much it all cost? I would be curious to compare my costs. Also, did they have to empty your lapband for the surgery?

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
