So it's been a minute since I've been on here.  The last time I posted was back in December and was maintaining my weight lose.  I posted that I was scheduled to have a tummy tuck this past April but that didn't happen.  My boyfriend was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and I needed to focus on getting him better before I had surgery.

I'm happy to say that he had his prostate taken out and he is cancer free!  He just turned 50yrs and that's really young to be diagnosed but he has a history in the family.  Anyway, I was maintaining at 164lbs and I'm now weighting 171.  I'm on a mission to get rid of these 7lbs now that I can focus.  I'm planning on getting my tummy tuck next April!

Them 2.5yrs post op and the struggle is real!

Its great to hear from you, PharmaGirl!  I'm glad to hear you are doing so well in maintenance, especially with all the stress of your boyfriend's cancer.  I'm glad to hear he is healthy and that you will be moving forward with your tummy tuck.

I was so pleased with my tummy tuck.  I knew I wanted to have the skin removed from my belly, but I didn't realize how much better i'd feel about myself once my tummy was flat again.  it made a huge difference for me.  I hope you are equally pleased.

I hope you'll keep us updated on your progress and keep posting.  its an inspiration for us all.

best wishes,

Carol
