Looks like I am the only one checking in :-) 

Can you believe its been 8 years? Seems like yesterday I had surgery, but the person I was back them is light years away from the person I am now.

Happy to report I have maintained my loss. I am 2.5 years out from an extended TT and have a BL/BA, brachioplasty and laser skin tightening on my chin/neck area scheduled July 10th. I am looking forward to completing another step on this journey and hoping to have a thigh lift in the next 1-2 years and I will be done.

First visit to surgeon - 288 ~ bmi 45.1
2 week pre-op 252 ~ bmi 39.5
Total lost - 153 Since surgery - 117!
Goal weight - 155 (mine) 180 (surgeons)
Current weight - 135 (2020 I lost 10lbs due to dedicating myself to working out more and being in better shape)

Extended TT, lipo, fat injections - 11/2011

BA/BL/Arm Lift - 7/2014

Scar revision on arms - 3/2015

HALO laser on arms/neck 9/2016

Congrats on your maintained weight loss! I enjoy reading your updates! I had my surgery the same year as you. Never made it to goal and have been struggling to not gain it all back. Its my fault though...didn't take advantage of that first year loss. I was so in mourning that year. Thought I would never be able to eat "normal" again. Boy was I wrong! But I am not depressed about it...I just keep on trying. I won't quit! Thanks again for the updates.

I am glad to hear you keep trying and won't quit. I have a friend that didn't make it to goal, started backsliding and just gave up. Its definitely something you have to keep working at for life no matter what point you end up at!

Now I am trying to make it thru recovery for BA/BL and arm lift. The arm lift recovery has been the pits.. slow going and a lot of work, but worth it... just ready to be all healed up!
