I'm so excited and nervous. I finally made an appointment for a consult on Feb. 1st. I've heard a lot of great things about this surgeon (some of them are people from this website). I'm hoping for a lower body lift, tummy tuck, and breast implants (depending on what the total cost will be and how much I can do at one time). I can't believe that I'm far enough out from my RNY surgery to be having this consultation. The time has sure flown by!! Hopefully I'll be able to have surgery around June.

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.
Yes your far enough out and you have done a great job! Look at you. You look wonderful! You deserve to have it done honey. Lord knows I need a total body lift done but im a plain chicken and I cant afford to have it done. But more chicken than anything and I will admit that. But you go for it and please keep us updated and what the PS tells ya. Go for it you deserve it!

239lbs - lost 22lbs pre-op= 218lbs day of surgery.
Just got back from my consult. The plastic surgeon didn't actually think that I needed as much as I thought I did. Instead of having breast augmentation he said that an implant would probably be better for me; and it's cheaper so that works just fine for me!!! He also said that I didn't really need a lower body lift and that if I wanted to I could do a little liposuction and that's all I would need. So I think I'm going to do the TT and breast lift the end of May. I can't wait!!!

YAY!! Congrats to you!! I wish I could find someone around here who does the financing. I'd love to have about 30 pounds of extra ME taken off and thrown in the trash!! HAHAHA If only it could all be gathered up and put on my chest!
Best of luck to you and make sure you keep us posted!
