Hello everyone. I am a 28 year old mother of 3 children ages 9, 5, and 3. I have also lost a total of 90 lbs in just over a year after having Rny gastric bypass. I am 5'2 and currently 145lbs. I am thrilled with my new body and feel like a million bucks now I just want to look as good as I feel :) I have always carried most of my weight in my legs but after having children that changed and I carried my weight all over. I have considered having a tt since having my gastric bypass. I knew that I may be unhappy with my results after weight lose so I have kept this in the back of my mind since then. My personal goals are to just be more comfortable and confident in my own skin. I am already proud of my body this will just be the icing on the cake. I am excited to get back to my pre baby body. It will never be the same but I can at least go back to wearing normal shirts that don't have to be super long and hopefully low cut jeans!!! Yay! At this point I am really excited. Not nervous yet. I just wish that I didn't have to wait so long before surgery but, I have to do it between school semesters...when people are available to help take care of me and my 3 children. I have a wonderful husband who will take over for me when the time comes. So I am not too worried yet... Only thing that bothers me right now is that I want to talk about my surgery all of the time! I can already see my husbands eyes glaze over when I bring up the subject and my friends are nice but sick of it already too. I am excited to share with you all as I am sure that you guys feel the same way!!!!! Can't wait!. I will try to post pictures later

Got on the scale today and I am down from 145 to 142. This is great because it just pushed me past the 90 lbs lost mark...I have lost 92 lbs !!!!! I am so excited. The closer I can get to my goal before surgery the better my results will be. Hope everyone is doing great and getting in touch with what makes them truly happy!! We all deserve that. Have a great weekend everyone.

I just tried to look at your story and didn't see anything there yet. I look forward to hearing about your personal experience and to see what the appointments leading up to the surgery are all about. Knowledge is power! Good luck.

Hi! I have not had a lot of time to write my story yet, but I will soon. Hopefully I can sit down this week and write my novel. lol. But I'm sure it does not sound to different from the others. More to come...

I wrote my whole story last night (kind of long), it said it would post, but it's not up yet. I hope it did not get deleted some how! I guess it will show up soon. Tomorrow it will be one month!!! I have my pre-op on Tuesday. It's all getting real now.

Hey everyone, I hope you are all feeling good and healing. Today is the first day of Dec and we are only 18 days away from surgery now. It is getting more and more real. I am super excited but, nervous too. I am not letting myself think about it a lot because I just don't think that worrying is going to do me any good. Monday is pre admission testing and Wednesday is my pre opt apt with the Dr. I haven't bought anything yet bc I am waiting to see what the Dr. wants me to get. I am going to start looking up scar treatments soon so that I will know what the top options are. Please let me know what you guys have heard. I will update about my pre admission experience on Monday. Enjoy your weekend :)
