Aside from being healthy?
Aside from feeling completely healthy with no co-morbid diseases, what is that one part of your body you want to lose?
Mine is that dreaded back shelf. The one that gives you two butts or one large one. It's is a gift from generations.
I am trying to put some good thoughts behind real experience. Keeping my nerves at bay :)
I'd like to lose my muffin top & some off my hips. Jeans are such a problem right now, plenty of room in the legs just so it can be snug at my hips & my muffin top poking out when I button up. Yikes! Well it gets better as time goes on. I think I'll still be curvy whenever I reach goal, what a problem LOL.
No one surgery is better than the other, what works for one may not work for another.

I was just tired of not fitting into my world. I wanted to be comfortable sitting in the chairs at my parents' kitchen table. (They've got arms. I have no issues with the chairs now.)

I'd just like to tighten things up. This is how I look on a bad day (particularly the boobs!). As I lost, my biggest surprise was how my hips disappeared, as in I thought I was curvy but I'm really not. My hips are in a straight line with my shoulders. Surprise!

I'd like my belly to stop hanging over the front of my jeans. It's getting smaller but I want it gone! I also want my thighs to be small enough so they ddon't rub when I walk. The chub rub has caused me to have so many issues with chaffing and it's ruined countless pairs of pants!
