2 Months Post Plastics - UPDATE!!
Just wanted to give an update and I REALLY need to post pics for everyone =)
I am now 2 months post op from my circumferential belt lipectomy, breast lift, and chestplasty. I had a setback because fluid settled on my stomach and I had to get it removed. Other than that, I am doing well. The doctor removed 22lbs (GASP!) of skin during the surgery!!!! The recovery hasn't been all that bad, except the antibiotics made me puke everyday. I am listening to my body and taking it one day at a time. Next, I plan on getting an arm lift and thighplasty. I am happy with my results and noticing that my body is looking better and better each week as far as swelling. I am not ready to buy clothes yet because I keep losing weight! I'll post the pictures later today. This is a MUST see for before and afters.
Here are my stats:
9/24/08 Lap Rny @ 344.4lbs
9/22/10 DS Revision @ 231 lbs
4/14/11 Plastics @ 211lbs
Current weight @ 2 months post plastics: 179.8 lbs
If anyone has questions, feel free to message me!

Wear oversized house clothing; big tshirt and oversized draw string pants. I never understood why people 'shop' for clothest o wear to the hospital..no one is looking at ya! lol. You will need the loose clothes for comfort. Id also swipe one of the hospital gowns that are oversized. I still wear it around the house and it is SUPER comfy. Good luck!
