Plastics Scheduled

Sep 13, 2009

I had a plastic surgery consult on September 1st regarding the removal of my belly.  The doctor estimates my belly weighs about 35 lbs. I cannot even imagine my body 35 lbs lighter.  I never truly believed I would get to the weight I am now, so 35 less lbs is not even fathomable for me.  Initially the doctor told me the procedure would be outpatient the fee was quite resonable.  However, due to my history complications and after review of these complications, he is no longer willing to do the surgery outpatient which means a considerable hike in the price.  No matter - I am having this belly removed.  Because the rest of my body is pretty much normal sized, the belly is really causing me to feel a bit freakish.  I cannot imagine how people who have lost as much as I have live with the skin and not have the surgery to remove it.  I am in awe of them!    My surgery is scheduled for December 9th.  This is yet another cash pay procedure due to my insurance not recognizing that plastic surgery is sometimes medically necessary.  They say the normal human body is worth about 20 dollars.  Well, when I am through with these procedures the worth of my body will be one more area of my life that is not like all the "normal" people out there...hehehe
