Mother of 2 grown kids.. Very supportive husband. My life is great except for my body! I haven't gotten anything done yet.. I'm praying mid July ( cross finger). This is my story... 48 yrs old mother of two beautiful kids (grown) and a very supportive husband who backs me up 100%. I've always been a big since I was a child. When I met my husband 30 yrs going I was semi big meaning I was over weight but not obese. I was a size 12 and then a miracle happen my daughter was born. During her growing up I finally lost the baby weight ( 6 yrs later) guess what I got pregnant again.. After my son was born for the life of me I couldn't lose the weight!! Well in 2003 I made the decision to have the gastric bypass done ( thanks god I did) and the best decision I've ever made. I've lost over 130 lbs and so far I've maintain the weight off. I think I've gain about 30 to 40 lbs back but I'm more healthier and I go the gym regularly. Try to eat right. Do a lot if activity with my husband and my kids. Now my husband has told me countless times how much he loves me and that I don't need to have surgeries or tummy tuck or arm lift...but I had to tell him that I appreciate his opinion but this was not about him but this was about me.. It was time to make me happy.. It was my decision to do this and damn I'm gonna do it! Lol
So that's my story.. So I'm gonna post some ugly stomach pics and some ugly arm pics..

Dr. Macadam. She is amazing. I feel so lucky I had her even though I did my homework and looked for sometime.

Every time I look at my arms I get grossed out. Haven't worn a tank top in over 15 yrs.. And if I do wear a tank top I always wear something to cover my arms...

After you totally recover you still have to do your bit and do some resistance training. All the examples you have shown are arms of models that do.

I'm definitely going back to the gym after the surgery but only when the doctor allows me to. I don't want to do it to early and rip something up! Those pictures I posted are my " oh how I wish my arms can look like that!
