I am scheduled for the first of two surgeries on January 7th, only two more weeks to go! I'm nervous as hell but excited also. This has been a very long journey for me. I have been obese most of my adult life. I had lap band surgery several years ago, lost a minimal amount of weight, and had a ton of problems with it. I had it removed January 3rd 2013 and lost a little over a hundred pounds in eight months!! I found THE surgeon who specializes in resolving the issues that happen with your body and skin when you go from being severely overweight to being at a healthy weight. I know I will be in the best hands possible and cannot wait!! The first surgery will be a breast lift, side of chest/upper back lift, tummy tuck, and buttocks lift with fat injected to fluff the cheeks back out. Then, hopefully about six months later I will have an arm lift, thigh lift, and neck lift (different surgeon for the neck lift), and POSSIBLY implants. The implants depend on how the girls end up size and shape wise after the lift.

Love my sleeve! Lots of band converted to sleeve success stories out there! Lamonaco is a specialist with "our kind", so sure you are in excellent hands! Post some pics if you are comfortable?

Ok, we are getting down to go time!! Only a week and a half to go!! I had the hubs take some before pics. Partially so I could post them here and partially so I have something to look at while I'm healing. I never thought I would post naked pics of myself online but if this helps someone else make the decision to go forward with getting the body they want, especially after being obese like I was, then it's worth the embarrassment, lol. I have my pre-op appointment in two days with Dr. Lomonaco, I can't wait!

Thanks for the pics! I understand the "I cannot believe I'm posting my naked pictures online"....lol....but they are so helpful to others I think. Your date is coming up so very fast! Your helpful to others laxity is not that terrible. I debated so much btw just doing BL and BA/BL ...was that hard for you? I would just have very little left with BA only! I am definitely not set on needing big boobs ...just want them to look normal! Will be watching your journey!

Ha! Dr. Capella is actually the one who got me started doing this. When he and I worked on the article I told him that I would post my after pic in the black thong but not my before pic. He said, oh you have to post the before pic, otherwise they won't be able to appreciate the transformation. So I did post the before (much to my surprise) and it was the ice breaker for me. Now I have shown all of my sexualized body parts nude in online photos. Yikes! It becomes so comfortable after a while. Plastic surgery is very freeing. One day I will be like Lady Godiva and ride through town nude on a horse.
