Just finished my first round of plastic surgery. I have an amazing nurse friend taking care of me. The plastic surgery team is the best in class. It was worth every penny and every minute I had to wait for it (my doc has an over year waiting list) and every bit of pain so far.

You are all worth the effort this part of our journey entails. Everyone should be given the chance to experience this.

Stats:

Pre VSG weight 350

Day of VSG 320

Pre plastic weight 200

I had a breast augmentation and extended tummy tuck. Here are some post TT and augmentation pics. I know how important this is to see by pre bariatric patients, post bariatric, during stalls, when you're feeling down from the excess skin. We are all capable of this. We are all worthy of this!!! Once I'm a week out and get my drain I will post another pic...I'll keep updating this topic!

I just had a brachioplasty and breast lift on 4/21.

Thanks for that brave before picture. That kind of looks like the skin I know is going to have to go on me. I'm trying to psyc myself up to do what you are doing. I salute your courage. I wish you a speedy recovery.

Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Just mentally prepare yourself, then physically prepare. I researched the hell out of the process. Plus my doc snapchats a lot of his procedures if his patients give permission. Which I did. My friends and family were so uncertain and afraid for me. In order to be successful I also need my loved ones support. They were able to watch my procedure and see what I went through. My friend that came with me, got to watch while she waited to be let in to see me in recovery. The support I have received blows my mind everyday. And I have never once regretted my decision to commit to this surgical process.

Good luck to you and all that read this. Hugs and much love!!!

My next item is a brachioplasty. I want that badly. But first I need to recover from my breast augmentation and extended tummy tuck.

My next procedure will be a belt lipectomy and then eventually my legs! My arms and breasts were what bothered me the most, so that was what I wanted done first! Thanks for the pictures!
