It is NOONE's place to question the "why" or "need" for anyone to do a revision.

It is up to the history of the patient' date=' family history AND the doctor. It comes across as bullying, the tone of the comment sucks, it is unkind and is flat out being a busybody.

Good luck to you. I am also low BMI with health issues and will post my before photos after I take them next week[/quote']

Thanks Lisa...i guess its all about how you read it..i saw it as a compliment..lol...

Taken march 4th, two days after surgery. This angle and the wide angle lens make me look smaller than I was. I remember the feeling I had that day when I took that photo. I hated myself. I still holding onto lots of the fluids, but it didn't matter. I was SO glad it was done!!!

Before & current. And anyone that thinks you don't need the surgery, ignore! If I could have gotten it when I was 70 pounds overweight, I would have (my insurance wouldn't cover it!) and then I would never have gained, lost, gained, lost until I got to 358 pounds (at 5'7!).

You are going to look fab, be healthier & probably not need skin removal like those of us with higher bmi's!

Thank you! I am loving that I can wear heels now, before I wore old lady shoes!! I'm still about 40 pounds from goal, but still hoping to get there!

In the hotel the day before surgery
