Surgical scars, excess skin and cellulite be damned!

Ha! I think NOT my friend.  LOL

Ya, we are fighting over who is bigger, you'd never guess WLS people have issues haha

I'm sure you look beautiful no matter what Bev,have a wonderful trip!!!

Aww you're so sweet Debbie, thank you.

I hope you have a great time Bev - and accept yourself in all your gorgeousness.

Thank you for posting this - and others for talking about their stuff post plastics. It makes me think plastics might not be worth it for me. If I do one thing - I'm gonna want to do it all. That would be incredibly expensive, not to mention painful - and will it really change my mind about who I am and what I look like? Hmmm...food for thought. Thank you to all of you for being honest with everyone - it's definately given me something to think about.

Rock that 2 piece girl - you deserve it!

I wouldn't deny yourself 1 plastics procedure ;)  I am GRATEFUL I had my LBL and even if I coudl haev only had one, I still woulda done it. Just with the way my weight was distributed pre-op and came off, I am blessed that I was able to have the procedure. I would probably be hard on myself with or without the plastics, but with is still better IMO and for me.

Bev,
I have followed your journey since close to the beginning and I find you very beautiful.  I can also completely sympathize.  I think that I will forever struggle with how I look vs. how I think I look.  Have a great trip and the bikini is great.  I have a leopard one that I bought last year and have worn it proudly!!

Thanks so much Jeanetta, you are one of the sweetest people around.

Hey beautiful lady have a wonderful vacation. I know you will rock that bikini!
I actually wore a 2 piece last summer but only in my own back yard. I wore a halter top with boy cut bottoms. I don't think I will ever be brave enough to wear it anywhere else.
I know what everyone is saying about plastics. I have a consult next week with my surgeon about breast augmentation. I don't know if I will ever be satisfied with how I look.

I love what I've had done but would also LOVE LOVE LOVE to have my thighs fixed, they have what I feel is an abnormal side bulge from my LBL (not the surgeons fault just the way it is), being tight higher up accentuats it. But such is life, I am thrilled with my tummy, arms and breasts. Good luck with your consult!
