    I am scheduled for a panniculectomy tomorrow. I am a little scared and nervous! I have lost over 100 lbs and my insurance is covering the procedure. Thank you for sharing your photos it makes me feel a little better about tomorrow!

    I go in to quite a bit of detail in my first video blog about how insurance came to cover mine so I strongly suggest checking out my link for my youtube page! :)
    I am glad I did it now since it was inhibiting me from being able to exercise at my best and causing a lot of lower back pain and infections. Hopefully you can get it covered. Again I strongly urge you to watch my blog videos :D

    Thanks very much!

    Great for you! I know you are glad to see that extra skin gone. Sometimes, surgery is the only way; I am happy for you. Speedy recovery.

    That is EXACTLY how my stomach looks after I had twins. I am 5 ft tall and the only place for them to grow was if my stomach went out. I was stretched so far I couldnt even do sanitary things. I had to have my poor husband do it for me. Now my stomach looks exactly like that. I would love to hear more of your story.
