At the suggestion of a fellow sleever (thanks DeezJeans) I'm starting a post-op success story thread. This can be a 'numbers' thread...when you do your weigh in's, you can post your pounds lost here, and we can keep a running total. We can use this thread JUST for pounds lost!

Looking forward to the thousands of pounds we WILL be losing!

Here's what we would like to do. Please send me a private message with your goal pounds lost. (Meaning, if your goal is to lose 150 pounds, just jot that down in a quick private message and send that to me.)

Then we will compile all the pounds from everyone who wants to participate, and post the full amount, and then work towards those goals with weekly updates. We will be recording those pounds lost AFTER surgery!

You will still post your pounds lost on this forum here so we can Celebrate all of your victories (and I will keep track of them on my trusty spreadsheet, and then report the weekly pounds lost)

If you have any questions, please let me know!

Howdy:

Gosh it's been a long time since I posted. For the past 2 months or so I've been steady at about 170lbs. 20lbs short of my goal of 150lbs. I'm pretty sure if's my lack of exercise. A friend of mine wants me to do a 5K in July... that might help me. I have to do something. What do you guys think?

I've definitely lost all I'm going to lose. I've been around the same weight for almost 5 months. They say 6-12 months after reaching low weight before plastics because it can take that long to "stabilize" and see what your skin is going to do. My face, neck and arms have already tightened up nicely. My tummy has some looseness but nothing I can't live with. However, nothing but a scalpel could fix my thighs, butt and boobs. With that being said, I don't think I will be getting plastics. 1) all my "problem areas" are really only visible when I'm naked (or wear shorts), and I don't really care what I look like, 2) I don't have the time it takes for plastic surgery (both the surgical time and recovery) and 3) Its a lot of money that I could use in a more productive way.

But I guess if I won the lottery I would find the time to get a LBL and boob job (without augmentation....I love my teeny chest, just not all the extra skin).
