I still haven't been sleeved yet, I'm hoping this summer, but I still think of everything I'd like to get done once I'm able to. Right now I weigh roughly 375. I've been overweight all of my adult life. Early 20s I was probably in the 225 range and it just has steadily gone up ever since. I'm also going to be 45 in June, so I know that NO amount of exercise is going to tone all of this extra skin. And with my age, I also know it won't just spring back like some of the younger ones can.
With that said, I'm thinking I would definitely want my arms done. Right now, they are really big (I mean they sag down a lot now, never mind once I lose the weight) Obviously, I would have my stomach done (I'm thinking the fleur-de-lis) and I would also need to have my legs done (I carry most of my weight from the stomach down). Boob-wise, I don't know what to do there. Right now I'm a size 44 JJ (have been big chested my entire life, even when I was a "normal" weight. I'm assuming I would lose some of my chest as well with the weight loss and I'm also assuming I would prob need a lift or something. What have you done with your breasts?
Now, my next question would be, if you have had all of these surgeries, which order did you have them in and why? Is it better to get one before the other? Did you get the "worse recovery" one out of the way first? Did you have more than one surgery done at a time?
And how old is too old to get this stuff done? I'm thinking I'd have to be recovered from the sleeve for about 2 years before starting the reconstructive surgeries, so that would put me at 47yrs old. Am I stupid to think that I'll be too old for that kind of stuff?
What are your thoughts?
