I"m 5'2" and 51. At my highest weight I was 240. For many years I stayed at 225, then between 204 and 190 for the last 5 years. 8 months ago, I got serious and started focusing on proper diet and rest and was at 169 when I decided to consider plastic surgery. I was SO disappointed to realize that my skin llaxticity was shot and that the weight loss, though encouraging, has left me with hanging skin. I believe that for my height and fitness/muscle, that my goal weight it about 120-130. I'm just not sure, but am determined to find out! I've set my goal at 130 before surgery.
WIth the realization of the laxticity problems with my skin came the acceptance that a lower body lift and and a breast lift is possible and in fact, possible life changing! I am so excited to have found this site to see how other people have faced the same issues. It's empowering to read and hear from people who have taken this bull by the horn (overweight hell & plastic surgery dreams) and created a new life and body for themselves.
My goal with this page is to share my journey and garner the hope and strength I need to achieve my goal. Who knows...I may even inspire someone along the way as others have inspired me.
