    What a wonderful difference! Worth the pain, I'm sure.

    He did a great job! It looks awesome! Why not a lower body lift vs thigh lift?

    Thank you everyone. My surgeon is a woman terrora.....Lol! It's ok. I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to have done. I just know my legs need something! Way too much baggy skin.

    I am finally getting my thigh lift done September 1st! I would love to get it done in May but I won't have enough vacation to cover my time off. It sucks that plastic surgery resulting from weight loss doesn't qualify for short-term disability. Yet someone who weighs 150lbs overweight is covered for a knee replacement. Go figure!

    I just had tummy tuck and breast augmentation and it was very painful. my arms and thighs have extra skin and consider possible surgery in future. My question is about the pain you said the arms were more painful than the tummy tuck. can you elaborate.

    In Canada, you can convince the health institution to pay half of the cost if you can prove the loose skin is a detriment to your health and that includes mental health/self-esteem as well. My Aunt has made a deal with the plastic surgeon she was referred to and is paying 2000$ of the total cost of the $4000 the plastic surgeon wants for the removal of her loose skin and she hasn't even lost all her weight yet.

    Your arms look great! I hate my bat wings and they will only be bigger after weight loss. Was the surgery painful?
