Lab results and thoughts on plastic surgery

Feb 11, 2009

Just updating my latest lab results.  All is within normal ranges!  Better than my 3 month lab results.  I'm taking Bariatric Fusion and getting great results.  I asked for a copy of the results so I can track my trends.  I think they were surprised that I wanted them.  I also asked what my goal weight should be.  Being seven months "out" my surgeon said I would still lose approximately 15-20 more pounds.  Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think all I had to do was lose 20 pounds!  It was always 80-100!  I'm exercising now on a regular basis...trying to tighten up my skin.  My arms are especially bad and my thighs, well let's just say I won't be wearing shorts any time soon.  I had really heavy arms and the skin doesn't look like it's going to go back.  They are swaying in the breeze.  I'll look really dumb wearing long sleeves in the summer.  It was one of the reasons I got WLS in the first place, so I could go sleeveless.  I might consider getting some plastic surgery when all is said and done...after my face lift!  That comes first.  I have a serious turkey gobble neck going on that I just hate.  Just a continuing journey to a better me!
