4 months post op (with pics)

Thanks Barbara!

Hey there, I also will get plastics also, tum and boobs, I to had my vsg in mid Feb, I thought I had to wait fot 12-18months post op to get plastics, I'm self pay and havent even talked to a  surgeon as of yet, just was told or read it's better to wait, cant remember reason behind it??

any thoughts?

I think that most want you to wait 12-18 months just to lose the weight and maintain it for a while.  I had met with my plastic surgeon last year and was getting ready to schedule surgery when I found out my ex was having an affair....then I started having trouble with my band, gained some weight back and ended up revising in Feb. 

My surgeon was willing to do surgery on me last year when I was probably weighing a little over 200 pounds.   I actually have another pre op appointment with my plastic surgeon Monday.  The nurse didn't seem to think having a revision would be an issue with surgery in Nov, but I know its ultimately up to the surgeon.  I know my labs will have to be good enough, but I'm very diligent about taking my vitamins and get 60 + grams of protein most days.

I'll let you know what I find out Monday.

Great job on your weight loss!
