Cant believe it...



Recommended Posts

But I went to see an plastic surgeon in Holland and got sheduled for an full Tummy Tuck the 8th of March. I went for an consultation and wanted to shedule my breast first thinking I had to loose more weight. I lost 70 kg. And as my stomach is still HUGE I thought I had to get more off. Which has turned out very very hard! According to her I should not loose more weight as I have a lOT of excess skins which will be kilo's. And she does not see much fat elsewhere. She convinced me to apply to my insurance for my breasts ( I wanted to have this done first and pay myself then my stomach) as this would save me a lot of money and she complete refused to do both at same day. Too risky she said with my condition. As this doctor came very recommended ( I did an search on internet and dutch forums) and we clicked I said hmm ok go ahead and she said well I can help you on the 8th of March.. I said how much.. She said the price 5350 Euro around 7800 usd. I did a fast calculation and said ok!. I went home called my bank and asked for a short loan in case I lacked 1000 which got approved immediately.

I just cant believe it. When I look at my stomach I just cant see they can ever make something decent of that. Its huge and hangs over my legs. I cant see it happening but I guess cant look anyworse than it does now. I am absolutely disgusted with my stomach. I just cant wait till its all done and am also totally freaking out. They have to cut off so much meat and skin to make anything decent out of this...

Who knows after all that skin removed I actually hit an acceptable weight..

Marillon: Very exciting! I'm having a Tummy Tuck and breast lift on March 4th! You should join the Feb/March Plastic surgery forum as well. Very nice people there who are all experiencing the same things. So, you'll be doing the stomach first and then your breasts at a later date? Will you be having a breast reduction or another procedure? Does insurance cover any of this in Holland? Can't wait to hear more. I wish you the best!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
