opps forgot one thing

I am also now age 36yrs so this journey has been a long one!

Before Surgery

I forgot to tell everyone my life before surgery and further details..
well I have always been a big girl, the biggest in my family through genes and family loved to feed me.. when i became a teen i was always the prettiest but the biggest girl, but I was confident but never liked my body especially my tummy and thighs. I joined weight watchers when I was 20 I weighed 112kgs because I kept gaining weight then yoyo dieting to lose it but i would eventually put more weight on.. I joined the program and became addicted and lost 20kgs to a healthier 80kgs..so that when it was my 21st I looked my best.. I made that goal and i looked fabulous.. but being young i didnt stay on the program and got too cocky and gave it up. After my daughter was born via c section I decided again to go back to weight watchers for the second time round, as having my daughter I needed to lose the extra weight I was carrying and eventually I was 120kgs and felt terrible, I was 22years old. I suffered from postnatal depression as well and used food to fuel my emotions and made me feel happy. Again I lost some weight but due to finances I had to stop going so therefore the weight piled on again.. Throughout the years leading up to the age of 30 I was in a deep set of depression, my relationship was failing and my weight ballooned to 138kgs my heaviest ever! I was so ashamed of myself so I had to go back to weight watchers when I could manage the finances better I couldnt go it on my own as I couldnt make myself accountable at weigh ins and would brush everything off. I also was admitted to hospital with what was diagnosed as gallstones, I knew I had something wrong with me since my teens as I would have very bad tummy pains but this went undiagnosed for years. The pain was excrutiating I was admitted to hospital and they did a scan and found my gallstones were so big and hard i needed to get them out and also they would have to take out my gallbladder in the process. I weighed in and they told me that I would need to lose some weight before the operation, and explained the gallstones were built up because of all the unhealthy eating I was putting my body though. Having a young daughter I didnt want this to happen to her and finally saw the light to a long and very hard effort to lose this weight for once and for all. So again I joined up and joined support groups to get myself back on track and be the me that I use to be as a teen. So started my long journey it was hard work and alot of mental agility but I done it I first healed my mind with counselling and help and my emotions then my body was the finally part to heal. I lost over 66kgs it took me 3years to get my weight down to from 138 - 79 I had a goal to reach my goal by my 33rd bday and I done it. Then was maintaining the weight I maintained it for a year finally weighing in at 76kgs before i started planning my surgery. I was on the verge of putting on the weight if I couldnt get help getting rid of the excess skin the weight lost left me with, all the exercise in the world couldnt of helped tone it, now i weigh 74kgs (I have given up smoking hence weight has been fluctuating and I am actially planning a new goal of reaching 70kgs this year I have my brothers wedding next month in april. Without this surgery I dont think I would of mentally be able to of staying how I was.. iin my mind it was better to be fat because at least my skin would be filled up.. but main priorities was my stomach and thighs I have always had big thighs but my inner thighs were so saggy it was digusting and my tummy well I never ever had a flat tummy like now in all my life and I still look in the mirror and then wow and grin at my belly button which I could never see before. So surgery for me have helped me with having more confidence and more self esteem and more love for myself and I wouldnt of changed a thing.. I am hoping to save again enough to do my arms and finish off the top part of my tummy as my surgeon can take off the skin if he done my boobs... then tighten everything up since I have lost more weight since pre surgery. I recommend Dr Pichit Siriwan highly to anyone he is a reconstructive surgeon that donates his time to children with cleft paletts so you know your in excellent hands..

I went through destination beauty to start...

I went through destination beauty to start planning my surgery in thailand, very helpful answered all my questions and gave me specific costs which was great, also they were the cheapest costs compared to other agencies. They helped through everything I needed to know and plan my surgery trip to thailand everything was well organised. The hotel was great too somerset hotel in bangkok was very good because I met others in the hotel whom had surgery too, so I wasnt alone.. I also brought my mother whom lives in Perth,australia over with me as my support person and they helped make sure she was well taken care of., as I came over from Wellington,New Zealand Iwas admitted to BNH Hospital with Dr Pichit as my surgeon I met with him he advised what he could do and what he couldnt, which was the very top of my tummy but other than that I was well informed and advised of what the procedure was going to involve. The surgery was Very painless I didnt even think I had anything done upon waking up.. I had 3 parts done to my body first the front of my tummy with lipo upper abs, hips, flanks and then a couple of days rest in the hospital and also back at the hotel before another surgery was performed I had a thigh lift with lipo inner and outer thighs and completed my circumferential tummy tuck from the back of me. Excellent surgeon and very skilled and well qualified everything went well with my surgeries and no complications at all. Recovery went well and healing nicely. Dr pichit is lovely speaks very good english and the hospital was very good, going through destination beauty was very good, everything went well even minor hiccups through nurses and release from hospital was sorted and I was given an extra day in hospital for free. Thailand was great and good experience
I would definitely go there again for more surgery I am very happy with my results.
