Body conturing surgery post weight loss

I looked at the most recent pages, but didn't see this topic, so I thought I'd post.

With the help of MFP, I have lost 160 lbs and have kept it off for the last two years. The problem is that, with that much weight loss, I have massive amounts of skin hanging off me. I'm getting a belt lipectomy and a breast lift/reduction next month, and though I'm looking forward to it, I'm also understandably nervous. Has anyone else had these procedures? What was your experience? I'd love some insight from the patent's POV, because I can talk to my surgeon for hours, but he can only reliably give his experience, and all his experience is from the outside.
