So Friday Feb 20th, 2015 I will be having a TT, BL/BA and Lipo in Mexico. I am beyond excited and have really appreciated all who have shown pictures and shared experiences, and look forward to being able to share mine!

Oh yes, and I forgot to mention that I will have the fat transfer to the rear, which happens to be almost as flat as my bust is, lol!

@@Think can't wait to see that! I had a butt lift and my upper rear is better than the lower half. I was thinking about getting fat injected, but I'm about out of fat, so I need to decide that before I have any Lipo. I have a little fat left in my thighs. Never thought I'd ever be worrying about not having enough fat, lol!

I completely agree!

Yes, I hope he is able to get enough to make it look like I have at least a resemblance of a rear end. If not, I will live with it, since I have no desire to actually have implants put in there, lol!

A bit more about me. I am a 47 mother of 3 grown children, last one by emergency c-section. Obviously I have had other surgeries, the open gallbladder, heart valve replacement and spleen removal. I completely understand this is not going to make the vertical 'stem-to-stern' incision vanish. It's more about the obnoxious overhang I have of my abdomen and the deflated boobs.

I am 5' 3.5", and 118 lbs. Highest weight was about 220 lbs before the heart surgery.

Pre-op photos, ugh! Bless one of my dear girlfriends for taking these hideous photos!

@@Think you don't look that bad and your thighs are great. I'll bet you have a really nice outcome. Are you getting an anchor cut? Safe surgery and speedy healing to you!

I agree, you've got a great starting point, and I think you'll be amazed at the results. Your thighs are better than mine after having 2.5 pounds of skin and fat cut off of each of them. Good luck, and can't wait to see how great you look!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
