Loose Skin and Self Acceptance (X post)

I paid 11.5k for my plastics, an extended tt with muscle tightening, neck lift and arms, money all well spent.  My arms could be tighter but they were really big before surgery and still aren't tiny, but atleast now they skin doesn't crepe up.  My stomach is perfectly flat, its a ******g miracle really and my neck I had done twice and the doctor said it will probably never be perfect because I have a long neck and short chin and had a lot of extra skin there when I was MO.  I will be 47 in a few weeks, I didn't come this far only to feel disgusting in a skinbag suit, which is what I felt.  The skin gets more looks then fat, people are used to seeing fat but the skin is reserved for 90 year olds, something I didn't want to feel like.  If you can afford it do it, its so worth it and if someone says its vain, so is wearing makeup, colouring your hair, wearing stylish clothes, driving a pricey car or living in an upscale neighborhood.  We all have our priorities, I would rather drive an older car and have a flat stomach then the other way around.

Good Luck

P.S.  Add me as a friend to see my plastics pics and then you can decide if you think its worth it or not.

Heidi, what is an extended tummy tuck?  Color me curious.  You make an excellent point about it being about priorities!

An extended tt means they go as far around your backside as they can get from you laying flat stomach up.  I am adding pics so you can see the difference, the first was before and the second more then a year after.

That is a beautiful difference ... I can see why you are so happy with it!  :-)  Thank you for sharing.

Thanks!  I had lost over half my weight and still felt MO when I was naked when I saw the hanging skin.  Because my body was covered in stretch marks it was way worse then some, I have seen plenty of people lose weight and only have a small amount of skin that doesn't even look bad, unfortunately that wasn't me.  If I had the money and the balls I would get my legs done too, but I have neither.  I am certain I tested the plastic surgery waters too much and am fearful of a bad outcome, so I am probably never going to take care of my droopy legs.
