victory dance....slowly
Finally.....finally broke the dreaded stall into ONEderland. Of course it was with the help of a body lift. Over 27 1/2 lbs of skin that would have never moved. I can't say I wasn't a little shocked. I knew there was skin and just flab, but I didn't know there was that much skin and flab. I am beyond thrilled with the results thus far. I don't count my victories as NSV's-just for me they are all part SV. So-skinny margaritas in a 2 oz glass all around!!!
Congrats on your plastics!

Julia-in all honesty-I don't know. The highest weight that I know of was 286. Banded in 2010 had a lot of problems, sleeved in Dec of 2013. Got down to 203 the "hard" way. I did do the fleur de lis and I'm exceptionally lucky that my surgeon is one of the top in the nation/world in this type of surgery- Dr. Joseph Hunstad. I am shocked at how small I am around and I'm still ridiculously swollen. So-at the end of this journey-I'm not sure. I still want a breast lift, face lift, and my bat wings gone-but if this is all that ever happens-I'll not complain. Thank you very much! Congrats to you as well!
