I did gastric sleeve surgery 2 years ago. I lost 124 lbs. And now I'm ready to start fixing the loose skin problems due to having been overweight for so long.
I did a lot of research went to quite a few consultations and decided on Dr. Jeffrey Lagrasso. My surgery is set for 3/11and I am a little nervous. Just did my labs on Saturday morning and going to my doctor for my medical clearance on Wed.

Congratulations on your weight loss and decision to undergo body contouring surgery. I had my LBL about 2 years ago after losing 100lbs...it was a life changing experience! I am very excited for you and hope your surgery gives you the results you are hoping for! Best of luck to you..

This isn't going to be fun to start with, but few things worth doing are. I did an LBL one year ago, and just did my arms with breast lift and implant 48 hours ago. Today I will shower and i am so excited to see what I actually have. The LBL was such a dramatic difference and this looks like the change will be just as outstanding. I will cost more than a nice care when all 4 surgeries are done, but hey, I like my commuter car just fine. Stay calm and take care of yourself. This is going to be worth it!

Thats awesome! I also had the fleur de lis with my LBL and the contouring you get with the additional incision makes a HUGE difference! I am so excited for you.

To be honest I kinda had a feeling he would. He was to go on vacation the following day with his family. So I'd rather he not be operating on me in a rush to get to Disney.

You are much more understanding and patient than me! I understand you don't want him rushing...and I don't think I'd want my doc to be gone after my surgery. Here's to another countdown for ya!
