I thought it was a pimple, so I scratched at it. picked scab and about freaked out when a long blue thing came out of me. I clipped about a half inch off before taking pic.

I'm still struggling with weight yo-yo, but overall I'm still doing ok. working out more and it's definitely not as hard with all the fat off of me!

busting from the seams
ThisYearEverythingChangesDecember 1, 2014
ever use that phrase? "i feel so full, im busting from the seams". I now know that what means, i think the weight gain and tight skin do not mix! i sometimes feel like my skin is so tight around the incision but because i am literally "full". the doctor made me tight and here i am trying to stretch it all out again!!!! ughhhhhhhhhhhh

busting AT the seams

I've often thought of that myself....what if I gained weight after the lipo, because I'm not well enough to get back to the gym????!!!!! I work out 4-5 days at the gym and at home when I can't get the 5th day in. I join a lot of the classes. Join a gym, if none are close buy some Pilates videos they are interesting & you can keep advancing. I promise you won't be bored with them. And exercise is such a rush!!! Those feel good endorphins. But if you have a gym near you, join!!! You can just use the machinery & get to know the gym. Everyone is there to exercise, all shapes & sizes. They mind their own business. Put your eye pod in and just listen to your own tunes. Wishing you well !

The other great thing you can do at home is a kettlebell workout - you can buy them at Walmart our Target and you can get all the videos you need on youtube - it is a great workout - cardio and building muscles at the same time and you can get heavier kettlebells as you progress and get stronger. Lipo is terrible if you gain any weight back - I now have a blob of fat under my rib cage where the bra band is- but only on one side. I have lost the weight I gained but it is still there so I am going to lose 20 more and see if it goes away.

Hi. I never could lose weight on my own. If you're like me you need help and to be weighed once a week by someone else. I finally tried Jenny Craig 4 mos.
ago and have lost 44 lbs. I think it's a great program. The food is wonderful. I just thought I'd suggest it to you since it sounds like you're struggling. I still have about 70 lbs to lose, and I'm sticking with them, it's the only plan that's helped me ever!!! Best of luck. ♡♡♡

WOW!!! I have just read your review and I am blown away at your transformation Congratulations, it will have added years to your life. I was big all my life (read my review) and like you have found that it is probably more of a mental and emotional change to come to grips with the 'new you'. Your friends and family must be in shock at your changed profile, well done.

You look amazing though.... Your doctor did a good job, and more than that you've done great at handling it all!!! Great work! Glad I came across your pics!
