pre-plastic surgery jitters!

Hey ladies, I am about a week and a half from having a tummy tuck and breast aug. I am scared to death! I am one year and one month post op and down 150 pounds. I started at 289 and am now at 137.5...it's been amazing, and I am soooooo anxious to get this saggy baggy skin off me! But the thought of recovery again is daunting as I still remember well what I felt like post op (I had the open RNY). Just checking in to see if anyone else has completed the plastic surgery phase and your suggestions... Kristi http://www.kristinepedersen.com

Kristi, I just would like to say "BRAVO" on your AMAZING weightloss!!! This makes my surgery date in 18 days a little easier to handle. How many cm did they bypass in your surgery? I am definately going to be going through what you are here in a year or so.. so i was wondering... what is a breast augmentation... is that implants?? I was hoping to just have mine LIFTED.. (im a DD right now..and hopefully with weights i can keep them at least a D) And also... are you having a PANNI or a TUMMY TUCK? and what is the differenct between the two? Any hints or advice you can give a "soon to be - newbie POST OP" ? something you wish you had known when you were pre op or newly post op? Sorry for all the questions..but you just look sooo GEORGEOUS... it got me all "surgery date questions" excited!!!! ~~~Dawn from Duncombe, Iowa~~~
