Plastic Surgery Scheduled for June 24!



Recommended Posts

Ok I finally have my plastic surgery scheduled for June 24th! I'm going to be having a full Tummy Tuck, breast lift with augmentation( he's going to run the incision along the side of my boob as well because I used to have side fat which is now hanging skin) and also getting my arms done! I'm soo excited and can't wait till the day comes!! This was a shock as I didn't know how I would be able to afford it... My 5 year anniversary was Tuesday and my husband gave me a card with the exact amount of money for the procedure in it and said go get your surgery honey !!! I cried I was soo happy!!

Those are the same procedures I want done except I'm not sure if I want implants or just a lift. I'm a runner and have a D cup so I don't want to be any bigger.

Are you afraid of having them all done at once?

I've talked to my therapist about it and she is advising me to wait until August at least before I look into it (because of other stresses in my life at the moment). I live in Florida, so I didn't want the compression garments in the summer anyway.

No I'm not afraid!! I wish I could get a inner thigh lift as well but he said that's one too many procedures and I will have to wait for that one! Oh well! He said because I am in such good health and my body is in such great shape I will do great having multiple procedures at once. I know it will suck having to wear compression garments during the summer but I will just stay in the AC for the most part while healing so I should e ok. I am scared of the pain but I know that it will be ok after a while! As for the implants.. I am currently wearing a 32dd from Victorias Secret, but the cup had become to big... You can see my chest wall and my rib cage at the top portion of my breast and there's not much at the bottom. He said after the lift I will be lucky if they are even a B cup... There's just no breast tissue left at all! So that's why I am having implants placed under the muscle ! We are going back and forth between 325 and 350cc's...

That's exciting news! ! That was very nice of your husband! If you don't mind where are you doing your surgery? I've been looking into plastics myself but for next year and ice decided to do the tummy tuck plus my beat lift with implants as well but have not decided on my bat arms yet I'm so scared of the scars... what did your doctor tell you about the scars?

I live near Hampton Roads area in Va and I'm using Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads. Dr. Vonu to be exact. He said the scars should fade nicely to almost invisible because of my skin time and my previous scars. .

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
