WORTH IT$22,000
It's been almost two years since my gastric sleeve procedure. I've lost over 100lbs and could lose another 20-30 possibly before plastic surgery. 4'9" HW was 258, CW155. Hoping to have a belt lipectomy, breast lift, arm and inner thigh surgery as well. I'm trying to determine when would be the most ideal time to have surgery based on weight, which surgery I would need (TT vs TBL), if I should keep working to lose more or keep stable. I've been at this weight for about 8 months. I'll post pictures soon. Just looking for more information!

Hey there, congratulations on your weight loss! I'm super excited for you! My surgery is Nov 8, Dr Fisher. I've posted a list of pre-op preparation and supplies I've packed on my review/pre-op commentary. I'm traveling to SanAntonio by car so can bring a lot of supplies, like toilet seat riser, wedge pillow, ice packs, etc.
Based on FirstMates comments and results, I've spent some serious money on compression garments in two sizes, one to accommodate swelling, and the second set in small to fit after swelling decreased while still healing. She said she wore her compression garments faithfully for I think 3 months and attributes her excellent results to this, and forcing herself to rest and not push herself. So I'm planning on biting the bullet and live like an 18th century royal in a corset...
I've also gone overboard on constipation supplies since this is something highlighted by many reviews.
Also, pre-op AND post -op nutrition are key. Plenty of protein to prep and to heal with. I've adjusted my diet to a very lean, low fat diet to be able to get the extra protein in without adding calories, and adding RDA amounts of fat-soluble vitamins in very absorbable format. If you lean toward anemia you might consult about iron supplements.
Hope some of this helps. I'll post as much as possible during recovery, any little tips I glean from my experience I'd be happy to share with the community to make the journey a better, safer one!

Just sent in pictures to a surgeon for the initial consultation. I am 4'9" and roughly 160-165. Although I know for BMI reasons I should be lower but I am very muscular. Also have a ton of skin! I would love to have a lower body lift, upper body lift (arms, breasts, upper back). I'm not sure if I should keep losing more weight or go for surgery!

I've sent in my photos to a PS and am waiting for the response on his suggestions. I'm so nervous and I haven't even gone in yet. I'm worried I won't be a candidate yet and then I'm worried that I will be. I want to have the best outcome possible. Doesn't everyone? My family is supportive and are constantly saying it's time. Has anyone else felt this way? Like you aren't worthy of feeling better about yourself? Like you haven't done enough work to deserve it yet? I know I play these head games all the time. I should hear back within the week! Hopefully it's a positive response.
