I think if I had your body I wouldn't want plastics yet but it's more about you and what you want...

I'm so glad to see a post like this as I was thinking of posting something similar myself, but I worried about the responses (all looks like good constructive feedback which is better than expected). I think you look great! I have been contemplating PS for the past month but got now I'm leaning against it after reading complaints about scars, lost sensation, burning/pain sensations at the surgery site, etc. Like the previous poster said, save yourself the scars from PS. I hardly see any loose skin on you, and I 100% agree with your boyfriend. I don't think its obsessive or careless to want PS, and as always, the final decision is up to you. Frankly, after viewing many surgeons before & after pics on various websites, you look like an after pic to me!

Thank you and yes you bring up some very good points. I not sure it would be worth it for me if I ended up with numbness and especially long term pain, especially in my boobies. I was hoping that since I wouldn't be having that much skin removed that I'd escape that but there certainly is no guarantee.

I think you look great without PS. You look like a real woman, and not one that "was" fat. Whatever you decide, it's your choice, but If I had a body that was built like yours and my skin was in great shape, I would forgo the PS. Just my 2 cents. You look great lady!

Tamera,

I hate to admit this but, I was looking for the wls scars on your belly. Did they fade or is there another single entry point (navel) for VGS? Just curious.

Hey there, thanks for the kind words. I have 5 very small scars from the laproscopic surgery, my surgeon did a great job at keeping them very small. If you had a close up of my tummy and knew what you were looking for you could probably find them but luckily they healed well and blend in.
