tummy tuck anyone?
I had a Lower Body Lift. I loved the results. You can look at the pictures in my profile as well as the blog for my experiences.
I also suggest looking at the plastics forum.

I have lost nearly 200 lbs. I have mudflaps on my chest and soggy paper bag on my stomach. I will be getting lbl and male breast reduction. If i could spell the name gyne something i would but since i cant i wont haha. I am waiting to finish my MBA as a reward and to get at least two years out to let the fat adjust and get comfortable with the new me. I guess this didn't help with your question but you have support in me sista, I'm right there with you.
... nothing to share, yet. But, someday hoping to at least get the arms done, if not the works. I can hide most of my flappy-bits under clothes, but I love my arms and shoulders and love wearing tanks, not so much when resembling:
Minus the tail of course, and the beady eyes and fur.. the rest is pretty accurate.

Ha ha ha, INgirl, I know how you feel! I had my flying squirrel wings chopped off about a year post-op, which was about three years ago. Love the results!!
And to the original poster, I had a TT nine years ago, five years before my sleeve when I had lost a bunch of weight on WW. Gained all the weight back, naturally, heh heh, but the TT held up great! Unlike the above poster, I had a lot of pain with my TT, but it went away pretty quickly, and I didn't even care. I lay there in bed moaning and thinking, "This is the absolute best thing I have ever done for myself!!" Whether you have pain or not, it doesn't matter, because you will love the results :-)

I am just beginning the process. I'd still like to lose another 10-15 lbs, but I'm not sure how much is fat and how much is skin. I'll be going to two PS consults in Seattle next week............. We'll see how that goes!
Maintain daily activity levels and practice clean eating........still battling some unhealthy behaviors!
