It has been a year since the surgery. I thank this site and all those who have wished me well and encouraged me. I have lost 151 pounds! It has not been entirely easy but has been entirely a blessing. Thank you for having this site and all the questions and answers that I have seen helped me to stay on course and continue to celebrate everything that I was experiencing. I have gone from a size 64 inch waist to a 48 inch waist. Some people don't even recognize me if they have not seen me in awhile. If I had to go through this surgery again, I would do it in a heart beat.
I expereinced no complications no unusaul pains just a lot of wieght coming off. I am looking forward to the tummy tuck, then watch out!
Love ya' all and thank you for the support.
