Hi everyone

So excited today I'm going to see a reconstructive surgeon in Melbourne for my Excess skin removal initial consult. I had sleeve surgery in March 2016. I weighed 140.2 and I now weigh 87.2 heaviest weight was around the 160 mark. I have a lot of excess skin so really looking forward to this day!

Saw the surgeon, have decided to go with a breast lift, body lift & fix my arms. He said I'll be either a B or C cup which I'm happy with I don't want big breasts & I wanted to avoid implants if I could. I will need to go back to get legs done another time.

Congratulations for reaching this point! Who is your surgeon may I ask? I kinda wondered if the Aussie surgeons have equal experience to the USA ones? Most don't seem to have many pictures on their websites....

Also if it's ok to ask...any idea on cost?

I know this will be on the cards for me in 12mth.

Thankyou! Are you Aussie? Who did your sleeve? I had Adam Skidmore he was fantastic and has worked overseas & spoken at conferences overseas too!
I'm seeing Dean Trotter. Check him out on his website. He seems very good! I haven't got costs yet, waiting for the quote and therefore the heart attack

Did you have the skin removal surgery yet? How did it go? I believe I will be getting mine in December.

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

      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! 😞
