I had my bypass surgery! I've lost more than 210 lbs, and have never been happier!
I've had 3 rounds of plastics -
LBL - 6/7/08,
Thighs - on the 2nd anniversary of my bypass - 1/31/09,
and my arms/flanks on 10/31/09.

I feel very complete in the journey!

Just wanted to share.

Thanks for the kind word Beth - and Happy Anniversary month to you! It is amazing how fast the time has gone, and that the things I thought I'd miss, I don't even think about. I love my new life!

Thanks Jody. I know that there are other things I might consider in the future, and maybe a revision in one or two areas, but even if nothing else were to change, I'm thrilled. I feel so free compared to how life used to be!

Thanks Charming - and I so appreciate your insights on this board! Wishing you the best as you continue to recover from your LBL and all the interesting surprises that come along with plastics. I sometimes wonder if I had know about the totally RANDOM swollen days, or numbness or odd sensations if I would have reconsidered. I think that was the thing that I really didn't get is how I would feel different things at different times that have no answers, and are so hard to describe.
