Topic: exercise for toning up arms/legs!!
Hi, everyone, I have reached my goal at 10months out from my surgery(145lbs lighter) and have the droop arms, saggy skin on my legs. Anyone have any good exercises that they know helps to tone this up a bit?

He took 9lbs of fat/skin off of me! I am VERY sore. Imagine my surprise when I looked down and I had a perfectly flat tummy! I started to cry. If you are having more than one procedure, make sure you have someone to help you out. I have 4 drains. My implants are 350's. Sorry this is disjointed. I have been on 2 Vicodin ES every 4 hours.

Topic: RE: Happy Friday!
Hey Karen. I'm having a happy Friday. I'm working hard on getting my BMI under 40 for the first time in years. Probably 15 years at least. After that I'm going to put a 2 in front of my weight soon. Hopefully by June. I took a boxing class at my gym this afternoon. Did a lot of sweating on that one and I am so sore! Strange when you move your body in new ways how that affects muscle groups. Hopefully I'll recover quickly. Tennis tomorrow. -Dan

Topic: RE: Liquid Diet Tomorrow!
Just wanted to check in and tell you Good Luck on your surgery today! Check in with us and tell us how it went. Saw your last post and I have to agree. Although I still have 15 pounds to lose to my goal weight, I keep losing it from my legs, butt and breast, but my stomach never goes down. It looks like it still has fat in it (is about 2 inch thick when I grab it). It doesn't feel like all skin, KWIM? Is yours like that? I'm thinking maybe I need to go to a PS.

Lucky you~~ Wish my insurance would pay!! I have been saving every penny and have been "fundraising" with some family members to see if they will help out!! I am looking between 20-30K out the door - ouch!

I understand what you mean. My small parts keep getting smaller which just makes the skin stick out more!! I'm waiting on the BL/BA for a couple of years to save up the money since I'm self pay all the way. Right now I'm investing in good bras. Carolyn

My insurance is paying for my full TT. I am paying for my BL/BA and Anchor Cut. I will be in the hospital for 2 nights. All together it was about 8600. That was something when I handed over all of that money! OUCH!! Guess what though? I am worth it. I will get my neck done in the future... If you guys have any questions just ask! I have been through all kinds of adventures from this! Robin

Wow! It is SO close now! I am having a full TT w/anchor, BL, and BA. My surgery will be up to 8 hours long. I can't even begin to imagine what it will like to look down and see everything! However, I still am skeptical! Seeing will be believing! BTW, I still want to lose 10 more pounds. My PS said that he would do the surgery as long as I wasn't going to lose more than 20. At that point, I guess it would interfere with the results. I still don't know why. I NEVER could lose weight off of my belly. My legs just kept getting smaller and smaller! Robin
