One Year Anniversary
Well, I too am at the 1 year mark today. Just got home from my 1 year Dr. Appt. Officially, I am down 130 pounds per the scale at the Dr's office. My morning weigh in has me at 134. I will take either!
I am so happy that I did this for myself. It is one of the best things I have ever done for myself.
Much like Aunt Lori, Plastic Surgery is the next thing to look at. My arms are big and the skin just hangs. I will go back to my regular doctor to get a referral for the plastic surgery sections. I have rashes (and smells) under my panni and under the breasts. In addition, I have back aches and shoulder pains -- not sure if that is from the extra skin of the breasts or the skin on my upper arms. Will go for a free consultation and see where we go from here. I would guestimate that I have 20 to 25 pounds of skin that would come off, more if I was looking at doing my legs, but I am not sure if I want to do that. Will let you know how I make out!
Now, I want to thank all of you. Even that I lurk more than I post, I read this board almost daily. I get a lot of positive energy from all of you and I appreciate each and every one of you for that. I never feel like I am going through this alone. My sisters are out there -- even a few brothers. Thank you for going on this journey with me and keeping me company along the way!
Keep up the good work everyone and again, THANK YOU!
