    Sure no problem. I agree I think it really is worth it for your health. Let me know what you decide.

    My real issues are my upper arms (which are thankfully getting better with a bit of resistance band work) and my stomach.. yea unfortunately, is like.. I had quintuplets...but most insurances will cover surgery after a certain point and honestly with clothes on, its not noticeable. Even with that extra skin, its way smaller than my big belly was... As far as drinking, I do.. not too often, but I honestly haven't noticed too much of a difference. You feel tipsy after about one drink (which is great for those bar tabs :P) but it only lasts about an hour...It really depends on the individual, but I had my first drink about 4 months after surgery and just took it slow.. You need to be more conscious of your limits..

    Hi Cassandra... Having this surgery at this age is a godsend for one simple reason.. You'll be able to live your life eventually without people even knowing you had it. You get your life back. We have (usually) an easier recovery and you'll have a better chance of your body snapping back (skin-wise).
