    Hi Deb, I just saw you info and I can relate to your story. I have had G-By pass and have lost 147 pds. Its funny the way some of my firends who have weight problems look at me now. They seem to be jealous. I get new clothes and not a word is mentioned that they like them, but when I was fat and bought something new a comment was made then. Good job on your success. Its funny that your living in Dubai, I have a son and daughter living in Dubai. I was wondering where you had your surgery and I see that you are having thigh and arm tuck and that is what I need to have. Its very expensive in Canada and I am wondering if your having this done in Dubai and what the cost is? Maybe when I come for vacation there I might check into it. It is really hard to find a good surgeon. O would love to see the before and after shots of what they do. I am a visual type of person. I am interested in how will the scars look. For me I don't heal the best and I would feel not so good if the scars are bad. I would love to stay in touch with you. I am very new to this sight. Actually today is the first time I am writing on it. I just got the news letter. Keep in touch with me. My email address is ellen_140@hotmail.co m. Good luck with your next surgery. Hope to talk to you soon.

Fat Girl Slim - my Journey
The ramblings of a 'formerly fat girl'

17 Months Post VSG Pics & EXERCISE post plastics - YEAH !
posted on 8/11/11 8:22 am
Hey blog - here are my 17 month progress pics.  Down 140lbs since surgery and kinda at goal (read my previous post).  I had my VSG in March 2010 @ 299lbs & as of today amd @ 160lbs (okay actually only 139lbs down - but hey - call me out if you want to!).  I'm also 4 months post Tummy Tuck with muscle repair and breast lift, and 2 months post Arm & Thigh Lift.

The gym pics were taken this morning - day 3 of being cleared for exercise after my plastic surgery - YEAH - and coz I worked a bit too hard in the gym this morning (a 5k and some weights - oops sorry I got carried away !) I'm super swollen - but heh - it will get better.

PS if you don't have a full length miror - you can always cheat - elevator pics and sneaky gym pics are my new obsession ! (not been caught out yet - but I've had a few near misses !)

The pic on the far right is a reminder of how big my thighs were before losing weight (actually I'd already lost 40lbs - but it's the first shot of me in gym kit) and my thigh lift and how they are today - for some reason a few days ago I thought they were still too big and had a word about this with my surgeon - but you know what - the more I look at them - the more I LOVE THEM ! - and YES they are still swollen & bruised !

Oh yeah - the hairdresser today (who I've never met before) - told me that I had the wrong haircut and it didn't suit my slim face (yes he said slim !!) - he said that I had a cut suitable for someone with a rounder face (aka me 17 months ago !!) - and that he could give me a much more suitable cut which would flatter my features - so I've completely fallen for this line and am having a new haircut next week.  Mind you - he also said it would make me look in my late 20's/early 30's and make my husband very happy ! - given I'm 44 now - I'll take that as well - yes Mr Lebanese hairdresser - flattery for this chick - will get you everywhere !!! - THANK YOU !

LOVING MY SLEEVE !
