While I have not had one - a long way to go still I would love to be able to have one when all is said and done...After 3 kids, 3 c-sections and a lot of blubber I have an "overhang" and not sure if it will be gone when i reach my goal weight.
I have read tho that it takes up to a year for the body to adjust after a large weight loss - so I will probably wait the year post-goal....try to exercise and tone as much as possible, and also save my $$$ so I can have the surgery if required. Will do much research before hand tho..I am at least 18-24 months away if at all.
Good luck and keep us posted on your progress!
