OFF TO INDIA

Mar 20, 2010

OK so tomorrow i leave for India! i arrive there Monday and my surgery is Wednesday... i have lost a total of about 30 lbs since i started the journey and i feel great! i can already wear clothes that i had stashed in my closet from years ago I'm so excited to buy new clothes.  The thing that totally worries me is the saggy skin.  I know many have it but as I'm so young i don't want to keep going through surgery after surgery just to have less insecurities (god knows i don't need anymore)
Have any of you found any good ab workouts that made the loose skin better? i mean i have stretch marks and I'm not super big to begin with since i carry my weight differently and i have lots of muscle, but i still would like to be wearing at least a monokini by July lol (monokinis are those bikinis that cover the front and are wide open in backand on the sides basically have a swimsuit strip in the front... awesome if you have stretch marks and a small amount of loose skin)

i will be there until the night of the 30th and i arrive home early early early morning on the 31st.  I have tons of thoughts running through my head; did i make the right decision on which surgery? why did i possibly choose to go to India for surgery?
i cant believe after over a year and a half of waiting and fighting with my insurance and finally making the decision to do medical tourism it is finally here.  I am ready to do this (though I'm sooo nervous)!! my sister who had RNY last year keeps telling me that i will be fine and that my mom will be right there with me and that i have all the support in the world.  I have been reading some of the posts from the people who just had surgery saying they didn't have much pain and everything went well so i just hope everything goes well.  I have an abnormally high tolerance for pain because of my back surgeries, and the pain I'm in everyday so i think the pain is the least of my worries.... its more of the anticipation!
I want to say congrats to all of you who have done so awesomely with your surgery and i hope that i can be just as successful as you
