I wasn't going to look- but after the comments...like slowing down when you pass a car wreck...1- I think this is too scary......2- Complete lack of class!

That's okay - we really need to know what could happen if we do have the surgery.

I just PM'd John Callery to ask for a Plastic Surgery Post-Op category.

Ahh so that's what that is. I couldn't figure out what the heck she had there. Sorry guys I should have let you all know they aren't very pleasant pictures to look at. Those pics she took seems like she's trying to document the rashes she's still getting from the excess skin she still has? I believe she's had about 3 rounds of ps?

I expect to see a scar, but not like that. The ones under her breast are so prominent and the belt lift is not easily disguised to me. Of course she is so much better than her 370 pound former self and is a beautiful woman, but I can't believe those results would be optimal for her.
Dyann:
I totally understand what you're saying - in the end, you want to look better (not worse, or scarier, or whatever) than what you went in with. Those scars are horrible - it looks like someone played the game "Operation" and she was the patient.

I've gotta believe that isn't what PS can do for someone.
