Just came to visit this forum and say your post. How is your pregnancy going? Were you able to get some answer?

Topic: RE: Tummy Tuck or Panni anyone?
I just had an LBL but my surgeon said once he was inside my muscles was so tight that he didn't tighten them anymore. I'm overseas so I pay him then file for reimbursement w the insurance. Further, since he didn't do muscle tightening (but did the rest of the tummy tuck w/ new naval) he re-wrote the papers to just say he gave me a panni and thigh lift. Hopefully they will be more willing to reimburse me :-)
I'm 5 weeks out. Still swollen. I will prob have him lipo the back of the thighs a bit more when I do my chest and arms in december as they are still way chunky.
I'm so glad I did it - you can see pictures of 10 days post op on my profile.
Private message me if you have more questions,
Cass

Congratulations!!!!
I would start with surgeons office and then to an ob/gyn
gl gl prenatal care will be real important for you. The baby will take everything you have to give so you need to make sure you have more than enuf. So that you can be healthy afterward.
Take care and good luck.

I am down 108 pounds and have 10 more to go to my surgeons goal and 20 to go to my goal.
It sure comes off slow now less than 3 pounds a month but it is still going down. some months only a pound.
I still don't have hunger but i do have head hunger. which i think is worse.
No problems with low blood sugar or vitamin deficiencies.
I take two multi vitamins one prescription vit d 2500 b 12 sublingal
2 biotin and one iron
I am off all medicines and inhalers. Still have cpap but get retested again after i lose another 10 pounds.
Take care all

Topic: RE: Tummy Tuck or Panni anyone?
Hi Judy,
I too would love to have some of this extra skin removed. I am getting trouble backaches but I need to research if my insurance would approve any kind of payment toward removing extra skin. Anyways this extra skin, I look at is a good problem to have. It means I have lost weight and have kept it off comparing to how heavy and unhealthy I was before the weight lost. Con grads on your weight lose and having extra skin. lol
Good Luck with your TT. I hope you get the results your looking for.
