New Venus Razor Mauls SharPei Thigh!
So I tried the newest Venus razor, and the wings on either side of the multi-blade must've snagged on my sagged-out inner left thigh...giant track mark with blood and soon-to-be scab...
...Sucks.
How motivated should I be to work my core and lose a few more pounds (I'm 5'8", 198 lbs., have lost 193 lbs, am going to be 48 years old on May 11th) in order to have approved plastic surgery (extended abdomoplasy) when my SharPei thighs and batwings will still be there? Just pondering the point...
That is all.

I have often wondered this because I want to spend the money on boobs and lipo on saddlebags but will still have the arms. I tell myself I will look good in clothes they will fit better and right now the arms don't bother me immensely. But I'm wondering if once the others are fixed will I then always focus my eyes on the arms. By the way I've started using nair on my legs for this very reason of the lose skin on the legs

Sorry, but the title of this post cracked me up. Ouch!!! I have trouble shaving those sharpei thighs too, sigh...
Are you still losing weight? Or do you think you're done? Do you want to lose more? I think it depends on that.
I am having extended tummy tuck and breast lift on Tuesday, and will still have my thighs and batwings. They don't bother me as much, but I suspect eventually I will want those taken care of. The surgeon also thinks if I continue to weight train my arms can improve a bit. As well as my butt. Not sure about the inner thighs though...

I decided to do everything at once and get it all over with and have one recovery. I had the LBL, BL, inside upper thigh lift and my arms. I went out of the country to Dr Sauceda in Monterrey Mexico. I'm 5 weeks out today.

First, CONGRATS on the 193lb loss!!! As far as how much more??? I think it depends on WHERE you feel comfortable. For my 5'1" small framed body 114lb sounds like a good weight.
With my vsg I DID get down there and but it was WAY too low for someone my age (60+) who'd been fat all her life. I'm very happy at 124-128lb and look much better, too.
My "batwings" were the first to go; next was a lift only of the sorry-looking empty tubesocks that hung down to my waist. Both I am extremely happy with. Now I'm seriously contemplating having the sharpei & thunder thigh legs done. If I'd known in the beginning I'd have this much work done I would have gone to Dr. Sauceda and had it all taken care of at once.
Good luck on your decisions and with the rest of your journey.
