Post Lap Band (2011) / Tummy Tuck (2015)
Hey all!
I had Lap Band surgery in 2011 at 24 years old, 5'1 and 250 ish lbs. I am now 180 and 2 months post op from a tummy tuck.
This experience changed my LIFE, my entire existence. I have kept track of my entire journey:
Initial information meeting at a support group
Filling out the application packet
Insurance battle / back and forth
Pre-Op appointments
Day of surgery
Post Op follow up
Port move surgery (I tore it away from my abdominal wall)
Tummy tuck surgery
Post op tummy tuck recovery
So the question I have is, how do I share my ENTIRE story when there is so much that has happened? It would be pages and pages long. I posted a topic earlier about how I am afraid to post my blog (where I have it all) in fear of being banned, and this place seems like such a good support group!
I guess if you have any questions about the surgery, the process, what you look like before and after (holy cow big difference) let me know! This forum is amazing and I can't wait to be a big part of it!
