I did it! Woohoooo!!!
I know you haven't seen much of me on the boards these last few months. Very busy. Hoping somebody still remembers me. Anyway, on to my good news. I could have posted this a couple weeks ago but I wanted to make sure it wasn't a fluke fluctuation. I lost over 100 lbs!!! I watched all these little goals get accomplished and it finally led to the big goal. Went from morbid obesity to extreme obesity to regular obesity to overweight and the finally into the healthy category! I went from a size 22 down to an 8 (depending on brand) I could wear anything from a 6 to a 10 and most of my 10/11s need a belt to prevent them from falling down. Last time I lost a large amount of weight my chest downsized but this time I was able to retain a decent chest size. I'm dancing and I have a boyfriend. I'm in the size single digits, in onederland, in the healthy range. This surgery was absolutely the best decision. I went from 250 to mid 140s and all in under a year. Lovin' my new body. Not wild about the extra skin but I knew this was a side effect. For the most part my body pulled back in fairly well but got stuck with a few problem areas. No way will insurance cover plastics but perhaps I can explore that option in the future after some saving up. I know I have abs under this tummy skin somewhere. Lol

Congratulations!! That is awesome and you've done a marvelous job with your tool - but then again you had one of the BEST doctors around, Dr Boe!! He was mine as well. The extra skin is nothing compared to the extra weight - you'll get used to it and how to camoflauge it.
Awesome job!! Much continued success!
