I have been spending hours on this site every day for months as I am getting ready for my tt and lipo. So I guess it's time I posted something. My preop appt is tomorrow. And I'm really excited nervous. A little bit of background I am 5'2" and have bounced around from 135 when I got married to 232 before I got a lap band. The lap band was a huge mistake for me I ended up having to get it fixed twice and then finally had it removed. I started the hcg diet and I'm now down to 176 today. I want to lose 10 more pounds before my sx on 3/18 but I guess that's a little unrealistic. I'm not looking to wear a bikini or anything. I just don't want to deal with the itching and sweating under my apron of skin that hangs down about 3". I just want to look decent in clothes without having to camouflage this hanging belly with baggy shirts. I will post some before pics soon when I get up the nerve. I'm just looking for a lot of support. And this seems like a good place for it.

Congrats on your new journey! I am new to this site and I am looking to get a TT and Lipo done in December. I wish I could get it done sooner, but I want to lose 30 more pounds and that is the only time my business is closed for at least 2 weeks.

I did the same thing. I set my surgery date back in October so that I would be home recovering while my boys are on spring break so they can help me. Also that gave me 5 months to lose 30 pounds. I've lost 27 pounds since Jan 3rd. I would love to be under 170 before my sx. Good luck to you!

Here is one more view from the side that I took a couple of weeks ago when I was at 186.
Welcome to the community. Don't worry about the last pounds before surgery. You are doing great on the diet:) One the skin is removed you will feel like a new woman and this will keep you motivated to finish the journey.
