I finally called a plastic surgeon, and scheduled my consult for April 16! Woohoo! I've chosen Dr. Bergman in Carmel, Indiana. There's gonna be a lot of nipping and tucking going on soon. I'm gonna be a hot bitch!
9 Months Later...
Feb 22, 2008
So here we are, 9 months post op, and things are going well. I've been researching plastic surgeons, and have found one that I want to go with, so let's just hope she accepts me. My pcp prescribed me some Clotrimazole cream for the rashes under my skin folds, so let's hope that helps. They sure can get painful. I've been taking many pictures to document the rashes too. I'm hoping that will help with the plastic surgeon and whatnot. Have a good one all. Cheers!

Greetings all. As of a few days ago I'm down 152 lbs. Yay! I had an appointment with my surgeon on January 31, and she says I'm doing great! She also said I was good to start looking in to some plastic surgery. She told me that her goal for me is 215. I'm good with that, being I'm 6 feet tall. She also said that by the time I would be scheduled for plastics, which is about 3-4 months, I'll be much closer to that goal, plus with the excess skin removed, I'll be right on it. Woohoo! So I'm looking in to getting my stomach, arms, and thighs done. I know insurance will pay for the stomach and thighs as I get rashes something terrible, but the arms.. I dunno. Haven't experienced any issues with them, so looks like those will be strictly for cosmetic reasons. Just have to see if I can raise the money for that one. Ugh! So for now I'll be researching some surgeons, and checking out different options. Cheers!
