Two years two months ago I started my journey

  • Popular Post

I'm 42 and I am so happy about my choice two years ago. Two years have passed and I'm still a work in progress which actually keeps me motivated to continue. I'm down 125 lbs and want so badly to get what I thought was going to be a tummy tuck has turned into a body lift. Oh well it's all worth it. Lose skin is not fun. I need it gone I am a size 8-10 depending on the brand ms I was told with a body lift I would be a 6. Not that clothes size matters in this journey but I don't ever remember being a 6. Lol !! post-167614-1420311851516_thumb.jpgpost-167614-14203118894608_thumb.jpgpost-167614-1420311924629_thumb.jpg

You look amazing! Good luck with your body lift! Can't wait to be where you are!

You look fabulous. Thanks for sharing and keep us posted on your progress!

I figured my tummy would be the problem, but my arms (wings) and my face are bearing the brunt of the damage. I figure a face lift will be my required surgery... I am looking tired, old and sad but on the inside I feel so young and full of energy.

Do you mind if I ask how old you are? I am worried about my face. I've seen people that have had the gastric bypass and the two people I know look a lot older in the face now. I plan on getting the sleeve in a few months but don't want to end up looking older than I am. I'm 45 but everyone thinks I'm 35.

Dermal facial fillers work wonders!
