My insurance has approved my panni. I wanted to have the tummy tuck in conjunction but just don't have the extra $6000. Please reply if you have only had the panni. Are you glad you did it? Does it look weird still having the "top part". What have been the pros and cons?

another question....did your pant size go down?

That's my concern too. I was denied by B/C, but ready to appeal this week. I cant get the full TT due to an old gall bladder scar so I hope it wont look too weird. I already have a large upper belly. I would hate to look 9 months all year every year.

I have a second appointment with the surgeon tomorrow. First time to talk about only doing panniculectomy. I think my biggest hold up now is going to be when i can get off of work for 2-3 weeks. It is a busy time now. Keeping my fingers crossed! I am ready NOW!
