Topic: RE: tummy tuck
I had a consult with a PS last week. It was not at all what I expected. He does everything on an outpatient basis at a surgical center rather than a hospital. I have been doing lots of research and even considered Mexico but I just do not like the idea of traveling with drains and the pain. I also worry about complications. I just feel much better about having someone close.
I am not even trying to get my insurance involved. I do not have a rash. I just want all signs of obesity erased!
I have worked an extra job to try and save up. We will see. I am wanting a anchor cut tummy tuck first and maybe the girls lifted next year. The Dr said I should have great results.
Oh well, just wi**** was already done.

CONGRATS.  I wish I could have a tummy tuck.  I am starting to look like those big wrinkly dogs.  I can't afford it on my own, and I don't know if my insurance will pay for it.  How do you find out if your insurance will cover it?  I heard that even if you insurance covers it, you have to pay the doctor up front and then get reimbursed from the insurance company.  Anyone know if that is true?

Congrats to you!!!!! My date has moved so I am having my tummy tuck done on october 8th! I just finished all my testing for it. Now I am like you trying to lose as much weight as possible. I was thinking liquid diet for a week before? If I could.

Oh what a busy weekend but a fun one too... hanging out with friends. I'm so proud of myself because we had two nights out with friends and on both nights we were surrounded by FOOD.... lots, and lots of food. But I stuck to the healthy choices like fruits, veggies and chicken & shrimp and stayed away from the desserts and carbs. I actually lost a pound over the weekend.

DOS - 247
Today - 133
Total loss - 114 pounds gone forever!

I haven't excersized since I started this weight loss journey. I had always wanted  to but with my blown out knee I just haven't been able to do it. I just bought some free weights and I want to start toning my arms a bit and strengthening my muscles. I'm really happy with my weight and how I look in clothes but I have noticed I'm not as strong as I use to be... I think I may have lost a little muscle strength along the way. So that is my new goal... strengthen and tighten everything up. Anyone know of any good websites that show you how to work with free weights to tone & strengthen?
