I have lost 120 pounds and I am having a lower body lift. I'm so excited, but scared as well. Did you wonder if you still had more fat to lose before you did this? I have been on a diet for nearly five years and I have plateaued for the last year and a half, but I still feel like I have more fat to lose.

Congrats on your weight lost.I think most women want to lose weight and fat unless they are real slender.I was comfortable with my weight when I got my TT and Lipo almost 2years ago.since my surgery I have lost another16 pounds.I am not as hungry as I use to be befor TT.Mushu I too thought I plateaued Boy was I wrong.hang in there everything is gonna be alright wait and Best of luck keep me posted.

Thanks for the support. My doc says I'm ready, but I still have doubts. I am scheduled to have the surgery next month. When you lost weight after your TT, did you have more skin issues or was your skin tight?
May 3, 2012
My skin is still tight but I also workout 5 days a week consistently to stay toned. As we age our body is still gonna do what it does just stay committed and it will be all right .Try not to doubt just do it and know your body will look better and better as you heal just be very patient and you will be amazed.

Thank you so much! I work out 6 days a week as well, but I'm just stuck right now. I am working with a trainer as well. I'm hoping to at least walk, even if I can't lift weights post-op, so I can try to lose after the surgery. Thanks again for the support. I really appreciate it!

Wow, what a difference in swelling between 11 days, 10 weeks, and then again in 6 months. I am 15 days post op and was beginning to feel sad about the swelling. I see the light that came at the end of your tunnel. ;)
You mentioned doing a tummy wrap once a week. I was considering the same. My friends sells It Works wraps. What kind did you use & how long after surgery before you used one?
