Talking ps appt

Today I had a consultation and have done my research and am set for Plastics in Dec. The cost was crazy, but you only live once and I lost 180lbs. and should be able to see a great stomach and boobs not skin hanging everywhere. Mind you I could live with all teh skin, but just do not want to. The dr. stated I need to focus on what bothers me so the extra skin is going to go through a full tummy tuck and my girls will be getting a lift and a little extra Now the waiting and wondering if you shoudl be greedy and do it ( all the money) or just say I can live with this and be happy! Anyone done this and are happy or sad?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I had a breast augmentation (no lift) and a tummy tuck but was terribly disappointed with my TT results. The PS was supposed to cut around my bellybutton, pull the skin down, tighten the muscles underneath, pull up on the mons area, and then make a new hole to pull the belly button through.

When I woke up and had a peek, my old belly button was right where it always was, no ab muscle tightening, no mons lift, he barely cut 2 inches off between my BB and mons. I was NOT happy, but he felt he did a good job and refused to fix it.

A year later I went to a different surgeon and he was shocked when he saw my tummy and said that we had to fix that so I had a circumferential Lower Body Lift (LBL) instead of the butt lift I was planning on. Basically I paid twice for a TT, but ya know what? I LOVE my tummy now. Still would like to strangle the first surgeon, but otherwise soooooo happy.

IMHO go for it.
