Panniectomy Oct 15th

D day is finally here---Oct 15th I'll be having the extra skin removed forever from my stomach!!!

Yeee HAWWW!!!

WooHoo Angie thats awesome!!

I can't wait to see about getting that removed off me.  I have an appointment on Sept 28th, I still have a bit of weight to lose but hopefully I can get this removed and finish losing, its soooo annoying.

I know you'll be so much happier after Oct 15!!

Andy

Thanks Andy,

I was hoping to be down to 299 before I have it removed but I just can't wait any longer I've only lost 8 lbs since Feb so I guess my honeymoon is over.  I'm 342 right now so that's a total of 215lbs lost I'd say that was pretty good.  I'm not done by no means but I'm just so tired of the rashes and back pain and knee pain and just all of it---I have 3 buldging disks now and just had knee surgery on August 27th.  The yeast infections OMG lemme tell you it's horrible!!!  I'm just ready to have it GONE!!!!

How neat Angie i know you will feel so much better without that stuff hanging. sure wish you could have made it last wednesday to Sedalia. do you ever hear from any of the lake girls?  no one ever gets on here any more? where did they all go?
hope to hear from you more often.

Yes I still talk to them once in a while.  Seems like summer just took us all in different places.  I was super busy with my nephews and nieces all summer but now it should start to slow down so we can start our meetings again. 

 I bet you drop four sizes at least, maybe more. Are you using Karen's doctor?

Yes I'm using the same doc that Marylin and Karen used.  I can't wait well I can wait for the pain but the rest I am sooo ready to get over and done!!!  I was thinking 2 or 3 sizes Susie---but I like your guesstimate better :)

Awesome Angie!  I know you'll do just great!  Better take some before and after pics.  Best of luck! ;) Lou

Thanks Lou I'll be taking before and after pics for sure!!!

Wow, congratulations!!! my scheduled panni removal was supposed to be done with my hysterectomy 08/18/09    but it fell through. the plastic surgeon said my iron was too low 11.7  , don't really think that was the reason!!(think medicare reimbursement...not enough $$$$) anyhoooooo....sorry off track, may I ask who you are using, and the qualifications if you are using medicare...anyone else??  thank you ..and i am so happy for you!! even though you are not at your goal...me either, i think that it would help with the execise (for me anyhow) with out the slab of fat flopping around!!!
