Hello! Well, it wasn't as bad as I Thought the surgery would be! I arrived at the hospital by 5:30 AM surgery was at 7 am and I was home by 1:30 PM.  Hardly any pain. I had some don't get me wrong but I think my c sections were worse! Also I had more pain with my second surgery for gastric by pass! 

They took off 300cc off one breast and 400 cc off the other!

Then about 2 to 3 weeks later I ended up being allgeric to the surgical strips you are suppose to keep on until they take them off which is about a month. So I had them off early but I'm doing well! I alittle itchy. LOL

My husband asked if I had any regrets and I DON"T. I go in tomorrow for a follow up and we talk tummy tuck/lower body lift. Now I'm praying for my insurance to pay for that!

God bless!

Well, tomorrow morning  have my breast lift/reductionI can't wait! Then I can start thinking about having my extra skin removed around my belly!! I have to be at the hopsital by 5:30 AM I'm in surgery at 7:30 AM and they said I should be home by 1 hopefully!

I'll post when I can:) Going for a motorcycle ride tonight so I can get it out of my sytem for  a few days!

Yippeee! I have a breast lift/reduction date! I'll be having it on July 2nd. I wanted it sooner but I'm going with my family to South Dakota for 10 days and I would be just getting out of surgery so had to post pone it a bit

Yipppeeeeeeee!!!!!

Yippeee..I have finally heard from my insurance company and my breast reduction surgery has been approved!! I am hoping my ps office calls me on monday so I can set up the appt to have the surgery!!  I called when I received the letter,but unfortuantely the woman I needed to chat with wasn't in! So I will up date soon!

I truly think insurances like to torture us!!  I have been waiting almost a month to find out if my insurance will pick up my breast lift and reduction. I have to go down to a full B size but that is fine with me! I'm tried of all this extra skin. I think I'm at my weight that I should be at but I have so much extra skin its not funny. I know they said just in my breast alone I'll lose 2 pounds and then around my belly atleast 15-20 just in lose skin!!I wish I didn't have to deal with the skin part but I won't complain too much since I am healthy and was blessed with being able to have the surgery and coming through with no problems.  Till I hear from the insurance company that is just about it for me !

Well, I saw Dr Satchie for my 8 month check up and she is very pleased with my progress I am down ....drum roll please!........90 pounds!!!!!! Yeah!!  I feel so much better. She was saying she can see me going down 30 more Wow. That would be awesome!  My blood work showed that I was low on B12 and Vitamin D so she uped them and will check them again in Feb.  at my one yr. Wow that is coming up so fast. It feels as though I just had the surgery. Time is sure flying!!  I'm am so happy I took this journey and had my revision done!

Wow..where do I begin?  I can't tell you how good I feel!! I am so glad I went through with the revision. It was so WORTH it! I'm down almost 90 plus pounds (my scale sucks) I see my surgeon next monday and will post more then.  However, it feels so good not to be in plus sizes anymore!  Its actually fun to shop:)  The only problem I'm dealing with is being tired and my stomach is 3cm not 5cm because of it being a revision and they didn't have much to work with since my first surgeon screwed things up for me!  

I will up date on MOnday Oct 8:) till then take care!

Well here i am 2 weeks post op. I'm doing good. I'm just really tired and still really sore. Saw my surgeon today and I'm down a total of 19 pounds!! Yippeee...She says i'm doing well and to rememeber I just had major surgery 2 weeks ago and the pain in my muscles are normal that she had to cut into them.  She says i'm the worlds smallest pouch! haha I doubt that but my pouch is 3 cm instead of 5cm. Due to my previous VBG.  I'll post more later Just wanted to share I have to go back and try to work out some of these kinks I have in my belly muscles.

I have less then 24 hrs until surgery! Its tomorrow at 730 in the morning. I have to be there at 530am. I'm excited-stressing. At the drop of a pin I'll cry. I think I'm more worried about leaving my 2 kids without a mom.  But I'm trying to stay positive! I drank one bottle of the nasty stuff. My stomach feels ugh after having it not sure how i'll get the second bottle down. Its been 1 and half and nothing so far!

Will keep you posted!

I'm excited! I have an Angel! Her name is Valerie! Thank you again Valerie!
