Going for my LBL

Hi all, I have lost over 100 lbs and have maintained my weight since Oct. I am going for my LBL on Friday. Has anyone one else already started plastics or are thinking about it?

I have an appointment for a consultation the end of next month. I have experienced bacterial infections in my navel and am hoping this will convince my insurance to cover some of the surgery. I have lost 136 pounds and am maintaining my weight also. Best of luck to you.

Woohoo Michelle!! I have had my consult and approval, now I just wait for them to call me and snip me up. Im in Canada so its as much as a 12 month waiting period to have elective surgery in a public hospital. Im on the stand by list so I could be called in anyday asking if I want it tomorow, to which I will say YES!! I have lost 185 pounds and am still losing slowly. I have been losing too much so Im hoping that plastic surgery will cut out about 15 pounds of skin which will reduce my RMR/BMR enough to maintain on my current eating program. I hope your recovery is coming along smoothly HUGS PK

Hi Pk, Sorry for the delay. My LBL went very well. he took off 8 lbs of skin and excess fat. I was back at work after 2 weeks of surgery. The pain was not half as bad as I thought and I was off the pains meds after 2 days of being home. I read that you are helping Terri out so you can see first hand how it is. hope all is well and stay in touch! Take care, Michelle
