Guest guest Posted June 1, 2003 Report Share Posted June 1, 2003 I apologize for not responding to all the excellent advice I've gotten from all of you I am a very busy gal these days..Even Dan said he was sorry he fixed my car because now he can never get ahold of me..I would like to thank everyone who responded to my body image questions..After reading Anns post I had to laugh.. I am very muscular and especially in my legs I carry most of my weight in my tummy and have no umm butt to speak of..I started thinking about what part of my body I disliked umm " showing " the most well I won't go into details(sorry Jim) but I releized when Dan and I became " active " I refused and still refuse to remove my shirt. I am actually kinda in awwh of my body at times I can feel my rib cage but then as I go further down..lol theres that huge " beerbelly " Jo also pointed out to me(by the way thank you) I have a fair amount of weight to still lose in my back area..until Jo and Marta pointed this out to me I was all ready for the tummy tuck and hernia repair Now I do releize I should wait ..I as most people do not see the back of myself as others do You know I don't think it's even totally the flab and fat of my belly that bothers me the most..My scar is not pretty I had alot of infection problems on my incision and had the Q-tip polka done twice a week there for awhile also Dr.Z put in another drain on the incision and ended up having to cut it open to allow it to heal from the inside out..So when I lift my shirt It looks as if I have 3 belly buttons..I have shown Jo Marta and I think Cindee I think that is what bothers me most..OK sorry guys I'm rambling...I just want to thank you all for your response you've all seen me go through so many changes and not just physically remember how super sensitive I use to be..LOL I have done a good job but have a long way to go..I remember last years pool party I sat in a corner by myself or followed Marta around...LOL Not this year..watch out guys cause you won't be able to shut me up......God bless you all Love ya all... julie in woodlake pre-op weight 324 surgery date 05/01/02 300 lbs 06/01/03 down to 180 Goal.......somewhere between 140 and 160 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
