Wink Plastic Surgery?

Alrighty, I don't want to start any kind of debate or anything.

Are any of you planning on doing anything plastic surgery wise to yourself after you reach your goal or anytime during the journey?


I will probably end up getting some kind of Breast augmentation. Not sure if that means making them bigger or just fixing them back to the right spot. I DO know that I will more than likely end up doing something though. I hate the way my breasts look and always have so that will be my gift to myself.

I am seriously afraid that after losing 90lbs I will have to have loose skin removed so I am really working the excersize angle.


I'm just curious about everyone else.

Well, I decided and have my fiances blessing, that if after losing my weight I also lose a lot in the way of breast size, then Im going to look into augmentation...nothing crazy, just back to where I am now...in the past I had some lyposuction to sculpt after some weight loss, and I would NEVER do that again...the procedure went fine, but what no one tells you is that the fat has to go SOMEWHERE if its not going where they removed it....so if you gain any weight back, even your bigger clothes that used to fit you, now dont fit you RIGHT because youre built differently.

I'd love to have my whole body done but then I'm scared to death. My belly and boobs would be the first. Would be nice to wear a short shirt or tuck one in But knowing me I don't think I'd spend the $$$ to have it done, maybe a good girdle lol

Marie, never thought about liposuction and what you said eeeegads.

I would love to have my boobs put back to where they used to hang. lol. I keep having to remind my DH that they're not "up there" anymore j/k. They actually aren't the perky teen type that's for sure!!! But I can't see myself spending the $$ to get them that way again---and not sure I'd want to

I agree with modestmouse, 100%. Plastic surgery is scary and icky, I don't know how people can do that to themselves. But I'd love these puppies to be just a shade smaller

I would love to get excess skin removed once I reach my goal weight, I know my upper arms are going to need it, I can see that already.. and my tummy for sure, maybe my thighs.. however I doubt I'll ever have the funds to do such.. but I can dream

hey this is a great question. i want to go on the show "extreme makeover" and get everything fixed at one time. that is what i haven't already fixed by extreme exercising and loosing the weight. being big for so long and 3 kids has made my stomach sag extremely, the jiggle under my arms, the excess skin on my inner thighs, and getting my breasts back where the good Lord meant for them to be is just about what i am going to expect to need done, but hey if i never make it on the show, oh well, by the time i get to goal i will have lost at least 200 lbs, so i believe i will be happy with a little saggy skin.

I'm all for plastic surgery! I had a breast reduction 4 years ago - best 4 or 5 pounds I've ever lost! I'll go on a huge happy rant about it if I'm not careful, but it was so completely worth it.

I've had lasik now, too. Does that count?

As for future stuff, I don't know. I'd like to have a tummy tuck, but that will have to wait until after babies happen. Maybe a facial peel? I won't go near lipo. They did a little bit on my sides when I got the boobs done (just part of the procedure to make them look right). That hurts! I had bruises for a month after that. Yikes!

I'd like to have some plastic surgery done -- maybe an increase in the boob area! I started losing weight, and they started shrinking! Actually, I'd be OK with them if they stayed at the size they are now, but I've still got 30 pounds to lose, and I'm afraid they'll keep shrinking. Of course, the idea of a breat augmentation is just dreaming for me because of the cost! Oh, well...

I guess it depends on what I need when I reach where I want to be. I am not exactly well endowed... got up to a good C cup when I was preggers. I have always considered plastic surgery, never had any but also haven't been able to afford it.

As I said depending on what I need done after reaching goal and maintaining for a good while.
Boobs done and placed back where they use to be.
Lipo to the inside and outside of thighs, hips, and belly.
Tummy tuck.
Am still considering braces.
Definitely need dermabrasion and or laser peeling (due to the affects of birth control on my skin pigment on my face)

I am not a vain person in all truth of the matter but I have always been self conscious of my figure and my thighs have been my bain since I was a kid- if I don't do anything else I want to have them and my hip/buttock area done.
