I am looking to have plastics soon, but am really starting to like the way I look nowl. I am going to lose about 25-35 more pounds but I really don't want to be under 170. I've been to a few consultations and the Dr. I want is willing to be the most agressive. I am getting and extended arm lif (from elbow to bra coverage under the armpit), breast reduction (2nd surgery) and tummy tuck with lipo suction of my flanks. The dr said there will be about 20-25lbs of skin and fat removed.

Question is, how much weight did you lose during your procedures?

I am only a week out from my procedures and I weighed 175 day of, and for most of the first week I was 178, and today I am back to 175. Doc said he sucked out almost 9 pounds of fat and took a "significant" amount of skin off--I am still pretty swollen on my legs, though. I hope to get to under 170...would be stoked by that.

When I went into surgery on 11 June I weighed 140. I had about 5 lbs removed and was told not to get on scale for about 4 weeks but did three days later and was 138. I am still pretty swollen and am now 136. Dr said some people lose and some don't. We shall see.

I went into plastics at 151.5 Dr. Sauceda removed 6 pounds of skin and liposuctioned 2 liters of fat from my thighs which was injected into my tush.

When I got on the scale two weeks later after returning from Mexico, I was 145. After six months I maintain between 141-143.

I had multiple procedures done at the same time.

They took off 6lbs, I never saw it on a scale all at ounce. I had my tt at 155ish, my goal was 138, it took me another year to get there. I currently sit at 140 now and still have some extra skin but my stomach and my arms look pretty good.

I lost 8 pounds. I went in at 148 and after the swelling went down, I was at 140.

16.3 was removed but 10 reflected on the scale. The thing to remember is that when they remove sin there is also fluid in there and the body will replinish the fluid. I honestly don't know many that lose what is removed.
