Welcome to RealSelf and thanks for sharing your experience. What was the recovery process like for you? I've heard it takes a long time to heal and get back on your feet again.

I had four procedures done over over a 1 week period: breast augmentation, arm lift, tummy tuck, inner thigh lift. I was off work for three weeks and on light duty for three weeks. ( I am a pharmacy technician).The arms and the tummy caused the most discomfort, by far. Three months later I had the posterior lift. I was off work for another two weeks, but probably could have gone back to work sooner. I am now just 3 weeks out from my last procedure and feel great. Don't get me wrong. The first go-round with the 4 procedures was no "walk in the park", but I am so pleased with the results, I would do it again.

Thanks for your review. If you don't mind sharing, how much weight did you lose and how did you do it?

I lost about 125 lbs. I had gastric bypass 7 years ago. My weight still fluctuated quite a bit. I took off the last 40 lbs through Weight Watchers and was able to keep it off for nearly 2 years. I decided, since my weight had stabilized, it was time to "take action"

Wow 125 is a huge amount and you should be proud of your hard work. I'd love for you to write a review of your gastric bypass, if you feel like sharing.
