BRACHIOPLASTY: One Year Later
BC
WORTH IT$12,800
Thursday marked one year since having the skin on my arms removed. I made a point of not comparing my arms to how they were for the last year, because I needed to see a distinct difference, and boy, did I!
Recovery went well. I still have some things that irritate me, but I don't complain. I still get tingles from armpit to fingertips on occasion, always when I put on deodorant. And my fingers don't handle the cold so well anymore. I don't in general actually, so I just wonder if that's because I have less padding on my body. I have some swelling in my left arm, but not in my right. The scar fade is better in the right, but not in the left, and I can raise my left arm higher up my back than I can my right.
I am in the maintenance mode of my lifestyle change now. Not looking to lose too much more weight. I currently weigh about 145, putting total weight loss at 206 pounds. I am 5'8 and large boned.
Life is good, I have some interesting projects in the works....things way out of my comfort zone. But I'm finally living life. Almost 40, and I'm finally alive! I'm so thankful for having the strength to do this, the family who supported me, and the fortune of finding Dr. Wanzel.

Another milestone!!

Thought I'd post a few more photos. I've hit the 200 pound loss mark, maybe I've mentioned that, and changed my hair, my wardrobe, almost everything.

I love your milestone! And you look fabulous ya know! Your success is inspirational. Thanks for the update! They last year seems to have come and gone quickly. A year ago we were just trying to make it through a shower!
Simply Amazing! You look stunning!
Congratulations! You look fantastic.
Would like to communicate with you. Thinking of having a TT and breast lift and would like to hear more on how you lost your weight. I have lost nearly 75 on my own and need to lose another 50.
YOU look spectacular
