|  A big set back!
Hello everyone! I'm new to all of this but after reading the forums I knew i should join this! I'm not sure when i'll be able to have my surgery done. I went though the whole program and was supossed to have my surgery the first week of Jan. but I lost my insurence the last week of Dec. Needless to say it was a huge set back! But i finally got insurence again and i'm starting the process over! Hopefully everything works out this time! : ) Did any of you have any troubles like i'm having? My one big fear is the extra skin once I have the surgery done. Of course I'd rather have saggy skin and be here to watch my daughter grow up then have a heart attack or something and miss out on her life! But it's still scary to me! I'm totally fine with the thought of surgery! (as of now! ) Reading all of you posts sure helps me feel more confident that this is the right choice for me! Thank you all!!!! : ) Have a great day!

Welcome. I have not had surgery yet either do to loss of insurance in November. I am still waiting to get insurance so in the mean time I am doing all I can to be healthy before I am able to get the surgery. These ladies are great at answering any and all questions so I am sure you'll find what you are looking for.

Welcome to the boards. Skin is always a issue we think about I know. You will here most of us talk a bout our bat wings ( underarm skin) or our tummys. My issue was hair loss and if I was gonna be bald! LOL. We lose it but never go bald and its not really that bad or mine wasnt. Honey I had my surgery did for health reasons nothing more.
