Up to you and you alone. I know it's hard when family gets their opinions involved, but what do YOU want?

What are their concerns? Do they think you are just being vain? Do they know the complications that can arise from having the apron of stomach skin?

Maybe they just need more info. But it is your choice. Best of luck!

I don't understand what the family is concerned about either. I think it would help you to feel better....go for it.

What do you mean "approved" for plastic surgery. Did your insurance approve it?

I too, trust God and like I told my daughter when she decided to sell her house. " If its meant to be, it will be done with no real effort from you". Her house was sold to the first person who walked into it. She found the house of her dreams totally by accident.

Its between you and God, not your family members.

I pray God will make it totally obvious on what you should do.

Love ya sista!

I also had an extensive abdominoplasty and Tummy Tuck, it was something I wanted to do for me, I truly believe its not vanity to want to feel normal again, after all what vain person wants scars on their bodies :)

Do what you feel is right for you, and thank the family for their input but its you that has to live in your skin and not them.

You have worked so hard to get where you are today, if this is your reward then I say go for it. After all if you weren't meant to have it, would you have got approval :)

      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.
