I went to the mall today to pick up a Hello Kitty calendar for my daughter. I strolled into American Eagle and noticed they had some jeans on sale. Needing a pair, I figured I would try some on. I grabbed a pair of 14's and a pair of 12's that I really liked, but they didn't have in 14. Off to the dressing room I go, put the 14 on, way too big. I smiled to myself and thought, "YES"! I tried on the 12's, TOO BIG!! I almost fell over!

I went back to thee floor found 3 other pairs that I liked and there they were! A pair of size 10 jeans at American Eagle! YEAH BABY!!   I am beyond eccstatic of course, but it is also bittersweet because my upper half is not progressing as well. Looked at tops tried some, but even the XL does not really fit.

I have decided to ask for a referral to a plastic surgeon at my next fill. I need to finish this thing, once and for all. I absolutely deplore my stomach. The upper half & lower have seem to meet & fold in; the bottom overhang is nasty as well. Enough of the negatives!

Today I am going to celebrate my success and so should each of you with yours.

Congrats. that's fan tastic.

In order for medicare to pay you must have lost 100 pounds and had kept it off for a year and be having some medical issue with the excess skin. Also medicare will only pay for the lower half of the tuck....unless you have a plastic surgeon who won't do only half a job.
