Nearly 2 years later and STILL blown away!

Here I am, almost 2 years after having the lower body lift, and 18 months after having the bilateral brachioplasty and breast augmentation, and I'm still getting used to the reflection in the mirror. I was given an opportunity to compete in an amateur fitness figure competition in October 2015 and I could finally look in the mirror and say "I WAS PROUD!" That was harder to do than all the pounds lost, all the weight loss maintained, and the rehabilitation after surgery to regain ALL my strength and definition. The most priceless moment for me was hearing not that I was beautiful but that I was one of the strongest and most inspiring people that any of the competitors or judges had met. Short story long is that 6 years ago, I set a goal JUST to weigh less than 350 pounds by my 30th birthday, but a higher power said "Don't settle for just good enough, be better than just okay, motivate and inspire those who say I can't to believe they can because they WILL after they see YOU DID IT!", and I did it; I am maintaining around 145 pounds, getting to share this journey and turn the nonbelievers into doers movers and shakers. Thank you for all the encouragement, may you all have nothing but blessings and prosperity moving and shaking into 2016! Here are my favorite pictures from October!

Working on me

It's hard to believe it's been almost 18 months since my body lift. I am still uncomfortable showing my belly uncovered, but yes it looks much better than it did before I had the surgery. I have no problems, no numbness, no swelling. I train 6 days a week without any problems and love how I don't have to tuck loose skin into my pants anymore!

8 months post op and loving my body

I am still wearing my compression when I am exercising because otherwise I notice that I will swell, and that bothers me, but I run, do cross training, weight lifting, absolutely no problems physically, and in fact I believe the skin removal gives me the confidence to not be awkward with jumps or movements that would make it flop around. My surgeon is very pleased with my results but is recommending we do a revision right above the pubic line to get me perfectly flat as I so desire.

My doctor and his staff went above and beyond to answer all my questions before hand, and relieve anxiety I had over the procedure. The care I received afterwards was great as well. His bedside manner is great, and I would highly recommend him to anybody looking to have this procedure.
