I went to the surgeon
The same dr that did my bypass did my tuck and I am all healed and I am happy with the results. I am FINALLY pain free... I just have a tight little tummy that I love... cant stop feeling of it! LOL
I am 20 months post op and I am still dropping slowly. I also know that if I had the rest of my lose skin removed I would likely lose another 10 pounds over my entire body. I weighed in at 171 at the dr. I am 5 8 and there are places on me that are really skin and bones. I know that my bmi is 27 but I AM THIN. The surgeon told me NOT to lose anymore weight!
I am ok with that... I am just stunned ... I think that is the first time ever that I have been told that.... now I am trying to eat more, although it seems like I eat all the time. I have not ACTIVELY tried to lose weight since.... hmmm feb or march.
It is just a new phase in this journey, one that you don't really allow yourself to think about while you are losing.
