It has been nearly 4 years since my surgery, it seems as if it was not even this lifetime. I am such a different person, I have become an advocate for the surgery, walking 10 people hand in hand to the O.R.. A few weeks ago I had my tummy tucked, not to bad, just 7.9 lbs of skin. I'm doing well it was kinda a breeze, not much pain at all. I just want to say that this web site and all of my peers around the world helped me through the entire process, both times, and everyday I am returning the favor. Thanks again and God Bless.........Erika -212

Erika ~ My name is Erica too. I also had Dr. Afram do my surgery on November 26th. I would love to get in touch with you and see how you are doing. Please email me [email protected]. I love to hear from people who has had the same doctor and are doing well. Do you go to the support groups. Maybe we could meet up there. Congratulations on your weight lost. I can't wait till I have lost that much. I am down 42lbs right now but have decided to do a little more extensive exercises to push the weight lost more. Please, contact me. Would love to meet you!!
