I 'm curious: if you are done losing, which PS procedures would you most want?
Breast lift and reduction with under-arm muffin-top elimination thrown in.
Here I am clothed (sorry guys who thought they might see skin)
Here's a picture of under-arm muffin top (I scanned the 'net for it) Take the top picture and multiply it by about 5 to where the muffin top droops down all the way to the bottom of edge of teh bra if you can imagine that.
And I found these while trolling the net looking for a good picture taht shows my arm-pit-muffins:

I had a full TT and almost died TWICE in 2 weeks because of a mistake a nurse anesthetist made...I still went through with the surgery , my doc sure was scared !!! he waited till I was out over 1/2 hour before he would start.
I am still glad I had the TT even though I gained back some weight and it hurt when I gained!!
I would like to have a lower body lift , because even now with about 40 lbs to go my thighs are nastayyyy, but at my age I doubt I will do something like that. Hip replacement is first...priorities change with age

I had the TT with muscle tightening and would love a boob job. Of course I could stand some thigh work and lipo off the hips and waist area, too. So much skin, so little money!!!

I'm not done losing yet, either, so feel free to discount my comment, but from what I'm already seeing, I want (#1) a brachioplasty and (#2) a tummy tuck. The tummy tuck wouldn't so much to remove a ton of skin, but rather to just smooth out all the loose, wrinkly flesh that's left over from two pregnancies, stretchmarks, and weight loss. It's not a LOT, it's just really ugly.
And if I could throw in a non-WLS-related procedure, I also want a nose job. My son cracked my bridge when he was 2, and it never set right. When I was fatter, my face was padded and round enough that it didn't show much. Or if it did, I didn't care. But the slimmer my face gets, the more pronounced the curve is, and it makes me self conscious.

I;m not totally done, but within 5 pounds. My arms. They are hideous! If I try to even walk fast on the treadmill in a tank top it sounds like I'm gettinf applause from a crowd. I still can't fit a lot of tops because of the size of my arms. It's just all loose and saggy and flappy now. I can live with the extra stomach skin, no one will ever see it. But I would love to wear a tshirt and not keep my arms pressed against my side.
I am done loosing. I would like my arms done and my panni. I would rather my arms because I can hide my panni. After loosing 191 lbs my arms are pretty bad. Dh said he would pay for my arms.....but, I am only 13 months out and know they won't do them right now. In the end I may not want anything done. Time will only tell.
I intend to get a CBL. I may stop there, but I'm actually finding my thighs more bothersome over time. I get "fat hurt" that is difficult to explain, and am starting to droop with sagging on the inside of my knees. I bought a dress ata a thrift store a while ago thinking it wouldn't fit me. It shocked my by actually looking fabulous on me, but I haven't yet had the guts to wear it yet because the lower thigh sag and skin feels so conspicuous to me.
