im back lol will i am 6 months 1 week post op i have not been on for a while i am down to 150lb which i am happy with but my goal is 140lb i have working very hard at it i have been going back to my ps and everything is very good except i have i little fat above my belly button which is the only thing i do not like and all so the my scar has become alittle thick so my ps told me he didnt like either of those things and that he would like to open me up again and clean out the scar after that he wants me to get radiation done so that the thickness will not return i guess that a trick rich people use to have nice flat scars i told my doctor that i DO NOT have the money to pay for that and he told me that since i have good insurance that he can make them pay for the precidure which i wasnt complaining about people tell if i am crazy that after 6 months i would let them open me up again and my answer was YES if i dont have to pay for it i would do it in a heart beat so that is where i am at right now just waiting to see if the insurance company will pay for it if not believe i am thrilled about my results

You look fantastic!!! What a great job you and your surgeon did! Thank you for sharing your journey - it really helped me to be brave for the next two week wait. Part of me wants to run, but when I read stories like yours, I get encouraged.

This story has given me a sense of the journey ahead for all women considering this procedure.Thank you so much for the posted comments in this blog. I appreciate the sincerity and emotions poured out that feels like we are there by your side. Regarding the money spent it was well worth it. As long as you feel good about yourself it does not matter the money you paid as it will be forever. Thank you again.

Wow you look great congratulations! I am debating on contacting your DR since i live in NJ and i like the fact that he keeps you over night instead of sending you home.
