255+ lbs when I had my gb surgery in 2004. Year later I was down to 140 & was looking fantastic. Had my 1st TT a yr after that. Dr Anain did a fab job. Never thought I'd look so great. Weight fluctuated a bit but 2 yrs ago I decided to work at having the weight loss permanent. Now need a BL, BA & new TT. Sched 3/28.

Thanks for sharing your story. It sounds like you've already had quite a journey. Let us know how we can support you in this community. Have you already consulted with your PS about size and type of implants?

Looking forward to this journey. Had a consult and I'm choosing saline because it will not have to be replaced...was told silicone has to be replaced. Want the lift more than realistic feel of silicone. Do not want to be a D...would like to be a full C. Not sure how the PS will compensate because my breasts are pretty flat and very uneven. Obviously different ccs in each breast. Plus I have a lot of skin under my arms to the sides of my breasts. Hoping some of the extra skin is stretched taught by the implants.

I DID IT!

Originally scheduled for 3/28...Dr. Anain moved it to 3/26. I'm so happy it is done and I can heal and move on and enjoy life. To be honest it has not been that bad at all. No pain at all from the tummy tuck. Maybe it is because it is my second one in ten years and I am numb? No pain to speak of from my BL & BA except for my chest muscles. When I woke up in recovery I was shocked to feel no pain. My surgery was at 1230 and I was home by 6. The worst part is getting in and out of bed. Since I have a brand new motion bed all I have to do is push buttons to raise and lower head and feet. I thought because I was older that I would be in agony but I am the opposite. I already started to switch from hydrocodone to tylenol. No constipation either. I honestly think the worst part of this ordeal is emptying and measuring all four of my drains. I will follow up with before and after pictures next week. I see the Dr. on April 1. I can tell you this I have a hell of a cleavage from what I can see and the Dr. did a fleur de lis tummy tuck so I am expecting the best. I peaked at my nipples and they are up there on the "first floor" up from the "basement"! LOL More to come.

How exciting to not be in pain!

I know seriously. Expected the worst, prayed, and got the best. I'll be posting before pictures later today. it's a little embarrassing to put your naked picture out there since I think it looks so bad

I am so amazed with your strength getting so many procedures done at once. You are a very strong woman! Proud of you lady, hope your healing is going well. I am in the recovering stage as well. Just had a breast lift with implants March 19th. I am glad you have a great support system, and you seem to be healing well. Power to you Goddess! Take care :-)

Thank you...I get that strength from my Mom...but it helps to have the best surgeon. Hope your recovery goes well also

Are you in pain ? Every one says tummy tuck is the worse. I really want to get it done but scared of recovery

First one 10 years ago involved removing lots of skin post gastric bypass. The surgeon also surgically repaired all abdominal muscles. Yes there was pain. But not horrible. My recent TT has no pain probably because there was no abdominal muscle reinforcement necessary.

Oh, how exciting! How are your scars healing up? Do you have updated pictures this month? I am having a BL/BR and TT in less than 2 weeks with Dr. Anain. I ma just very nervous and probably driving her a bit nuts with all of my questions and constant visits. I would love to hear from more women with similar experiences! Good for you!
