December baby here too...Can't believe it's been three years.  It was the best decision I have ever made....I can't remember how to update my bar at the bottom but I am 127 right now....I weigh everyday and always seem to stay under 130.  That was my goal...from 242 at surgery and 251 at highest.  I didn't have plastics....insurance didn't cover it but I really don't have a lot of skin....surprisingly.  My ob/gyn was shocked that I had lost so much weight and hadn't really needed plastics.  I don't get on here much, it's not so much of an obsession as it was but things are going great for me...divorced and dating a wonderful man now....couldn't be happier.
