    Hi Ronnie, I am hoping to lose 200 lbs and have a few surgeries. I welcome any advice you can offer.

    Hey Ronnie - hope your latest surgery went great and you are recovering well. I'm so glad you are progressing so well with that, I know it is painful and you are brave. When do you come back?
  5. Hey All... Skin removal Part II... Heading to TJ MX to see Dr. Marco Rodas again. Time for arms and breast lift. Halfway through the journey. Skin removals! after a 200lb loss, have about 40lbs of skin to be removed! closing in. Tummy done already last year. After this visit, I will still need to head down 2 more times. legs, butt and face!

    Hey -- thanks! We both look great I hope all is well with you? Tummy tuck is healing pretty well, some days I don't even feel it, other days by the end of the day it is all tingly down their (nerves?). I'm so glad I did it but I cannot wait for it to be fully healed! Wow, it really does help with the contours though.

    hi Ronnie,
    Where is your plastic surgeon located & how much for the tummy tuck?

    THANKS for the message. Very good information. You called it, laying low is going to be tough. I did buy a bunch of really good, and healthy, food so my pantry is stocked for recovery. I posted about my pre-op and also my photos (gulp) today. That definitely made me feel vulnerable! I've got the pain meds and help lined up so now it is just the waiting game. I am nervous for sure. They offered some Valium for the nerves, which I declined, but now I'm second guessing myself. LOL!

    Hi Ronnie so how much did they charge for the tummy tuck...Can you send me the doctor' s information who you used.. I used Dr. Garcia for my sleeve...what do you suggest to start losing weight

    Wow - 10# of skin. That's amazing. Bet you are going to love that scale after all the fluids / swelling go away! You've definitely earned it. I am scheduled for 10/23 and they are doing the extended abdominoplasty. Unlike a regular tummy tuck (hip to hip), they are going all the way to my back (flank to flank). Like you I had Dr. Garcia for my sleeve but the tuck is only about $1500 more for me locally so I'm having that at home.

    So glad to hear it all went well. My HGB was low the day of my sleeve and still runs a tiny bit low, it does in my family. I'm only doing my tummy and I'm doing all I can with iron supplements right now so hopefully that helps. Just glad to hear you are OK and can't wait to hear more. You look great!

    What is the Paleo way of eating? I will go and check the Web Md tracker. I walk for 15-20 minutes everyday since my surgery. Just waiting to be cleared to exercise. Thanks again for offering to be a support for me during my journey.
