HUGE UPDATE (134lbs lost & plastics)



Recommended Posts

hey guys!

ive been gone for a while but i wanted to update you with my numbers and BIG NEWS!!!!

a lot of you guys probably remember me and for those of you who dont, you can go to the complications section of this forum & read my thread "i definitely regret surgery" or something to that effect.

i started at 273lbs.

i am now 141lbs but my lowest was 139lbs. i kinda bounce between the 2 numbers.

on march 22nd, i am having plastic surgery!!! i am breaking the bank to get this done but i feel its much needed & cant deal with looking as i do now.

before surgery, i was probably a size EE in bras but squeezed in DDD bras. i am now probably like a D. you cant imagine how much skin and wrinkles my boobies have. im 24 with grandma boobies. so, im getting a breast lift with implants & im getting a fat transfer to my butt. a fat transfer for those of you who dont know, is when they Lipo your mid section front and back & transfer the fat into your butt. this will leave my tummy very wrinkled which means after i pay off this $9,000 debt that im jumping into, i will have to then pay for a Tummy Tuck. i found a plastic surgeon who i love and trust & he doesnt accept my insurance so im paying out of pocket. im having this procedure done in westchester, ny.

please pray for me! xo

Hi Jasleeve. So glad you are doing better. I am new to this site (sleeved 1.19) and did not see your previous posts. Congratulations and good luck with your upcoming surgery. If you would not mind, would you please tell me the name of the surgeon who is going to preform your surgery? I live in Yorktown Heights, and had my sleeve surgery done at Northern West. Hospital. Once I get to where I need to be, I am definitely going to look into having additional surgery for the excess skin and to make girls look perky again. Be well.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
