for those of you who have lost a lot of weight here is my stupid question..

i've noticed from before and after pics the difference in your faces. you have a chin line, visible cheekbones smaller necks, but i didn't notice any hanging skin or such , is it just a trick of the camera or is the weight loss in the face not leaving that problem? One of my fears of the after affects of the surgery is having droopy hanging skin cheeks or neck. am i worrying for nothing?

and isn't it so much more fun to put makeup on now? hehe

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.

My fears are thighs!!!! I don't think that cheeks or neck sag that much. I've lost 10 kilos and I've noticed my nose got smaller but no face skin sagging at all hehehe

I have already noticed a general migration of most things south, but I will just have to work on toning as much as I can and try to help that out. I am also hoping that the only main areas that I will have to have done post op are tummy and breasts. I don't know if I can handle much more surgery than that.

Default face

I find that I have no excess skin on my face either. It is everwhere else but there. I notice the slimmer face but no extra skin. I guess some of us are just lucky in that respect. Now to get rid of the enormous amount on legs,thighs and arms. The stomach area doesn't bother me as much as I can cover it up but I hate wearing sleeveless shirts right now as I have such an amount hanging .

oh i'm prepared for plastic surgery after and will get everything done if i need it, i'm just a little worried about the face because i have seen people with extra skin around the chin and neck and i'm hoping i can avoid that. i can't wait till i have cheekbones again.lol well i guess i still have cheekbones but they aren't noticeable through all of the fat.

Booty? awesome femme, when did you notice this?
