I go for consultation for a panni... Crossing fingers.

maybe one day I will be hoping for one too - I will cross my fingers, eyes and toes for you! Tough day at work for me trying to work all crossed (fingers, eyes, & toes) though!

Let us know what the results are so we can cheer you on. I heard the recovery is a B*TcH.

@@jane13 thank u.. Im not nervous yet... Im not going to be nervous until i know insurence will pay for it... Then its real.. The only thing is having to take the pics.. I cant stand to see myself naked at this point..but ill do what i have to... I will update later today about how the appt went!! Thank you so much for crossing eyes, toes, and fingers for me!!!! Lol ( oh recovery is a bitch) if i can get it id like to do it first week of july after my daughter gets out of school... They say 2-3 weeks its not as bad... So we will see.

Good luck!

@@youngmilf - I totally get the pic thing (naked or not). I didn't have any pain post op but I have heard its painful and I would like to possibly do my stomach and get the "girls" back to a normal area. I have always been chesty and my one GF's first question was post-op for the sleeve was "what about your boobs?" I couldn't believe it! She is almost as chesty and has a belly to rest hers on too! Love her, but really.....thought a sister wouldn't asked more about my new tummy :/

Yes... But its fine ill take the pics... But i hate seeing in the bathroom when i take a shower... But hes a professional and sees this a million times...ill keep u posted!!

Hey all... Consultation went well. I go back sept 11th... I have a little work to do... I have to loose as much weight as possible. Between 30-60 at max... I also have to get a antifungal cream on documented for this persistant itch... If it works they wont approve... But if it doesnt then it will be approved... In so many words he gave me the blue print to get approved. The extra weight loss is to get the best result possible.... I do like a challenge and so he told me to enjoy my summer and i got my appt for sept...he told me this is going to be the hardest thing i do the extra weight loss.... But i know i can do it... Its crunch time now!!!

Hi, Just a note of encouragement. You sound really positive which great!!! I am looking into having a tummy tuck after wieghing 200+. Down to 145 after 2 years of tears, frustration and a lot of sweat.

Good luck and stay strong.

Thank u very much

Wishing you the best!
