Well, in 19 days I will be 6 months post-op and I couldn't be happier. I have come from 267# to 184# as of this morning, for a total weight loss of 83#!!!!
My arms are firming up nicely, my bust is pretty much gone, and my thighs need some work. But overall, the transformation is pretty spectacular. I am a "pear" and have always lost weight from the top down.
I knew going into this that my bust would shrink, I just didn't realize how dramatic that change would be. As a result, I am starting to research Plastic Surgery to specifically address the bust line. I know that I need to wait until my weight loss stabilizes before pursuing this avenue of correction. I certainly never thought I would consider plastic surgery.
I want to thank this forum for all the support, resources, and encouragement that I have received along my journey. And I want to thank Dr. Skogerson in Carson City Nevada for being a fabulous surgeon.
In closing, I hope everybody had a "losing" Holiday Season, and I hope and pray that everybody continues on the losing side.
