Congrats!! That is exciting news! Way to go.

I know it was a tough battle and it will be so worth it. I too had to fight my insurance and finally won with the panni but now I'm fighting for the breasts. That is the one I want so badly. I should find out in a few weeks with my 3rd appeal.

Again I'm so happy for you!

Worst pain I've ever been through in my entire living life! But oh so worth it! My drains were in for a month. It sucked BIG time.

I figure this is going to be extremely painful!! I am ready!! As for cutting public to breast bone, this is an extended tummy tuck, they tighten the stomach muscles all the way up and this is because of the stretching due to carrying mainly weight in my stomach. Some recommend this and some do not!! He said this would give me the best possible results!

I think I will be doing the same procedure...pending insurance approval. The way the doctor explained it to me is it makes it possible for them to work on your tummy both vertically and horizantally. It will bring the sides in and give you the perfect hour glass shape. Not all people need this procedure. I carried all my weight in my belly, none in the back so I don't need a body lift. It does leave an inverted t scare on your belly but I already have 2 large scars so I don't mind that. I will trade them any day for a belly that doesn't hang or flap when I work out.
