Overwhelmed about skin surgery

Overwhelmed about skin surgery

Hi friends, I'm hoping this doesn't get lost in the void so I'm adding a picture to try to help it stand out.

I'm overwhelmed and I need to vent. I'm not to my goal yet, I'm only 7 mos out from my sleeve. I lost some before the sleeve too, so I'm down 118 lbs in the past year. Which is crazy. I had a consult with a plastic surgeon to talk about possibly getting chin lipo with renuvion (skin tightening laser) because I'm dying to have a snatched jawline and I think it would help me feel better about myself while I'm still losing weight. The surgeon told me chin lipo would be a waste of money since I'm still losing and I should put that money towards skin removal. And begrudgingly, I know he's right. But as soon as the surgeon knew I had lost a lot of weight, he had me stand at the mirror and started sucking in my sides and lifting up my stomach and showing me how he'd do a full lower body lift on me. Which yes, I know ideally is what I should eventually do. And yes, this surgeon is excellent at those surgeries I will say. But it was so jarring. I was not expecting that at all. And that wasn't what I was there to talk about, yet. He then guided my hands and had me lift my pubic area I guess to show me how I'll get a snatched vajay. It was just a LOT when I went in to talk about chin lipo. Clearly the guy is better at surgery than bedside manner. I left with an estimate for 30k for a lower body lift. Which was just depressing AF. That's not even counting a breast lift, arm lift, back lift. All the other shit I'll likely need. He told me I'll need at least 4 or 5 surgeries total. Like, where am I going to get a hundred k to put my body back together? It makes me SO mad at myself for getting heavy enough that I now need this much shit to give me a somewhat normal body at the end of it all.

And yes, I know not getting skin surgery is also an option. But if I'm going to work this hard for a new body, I want to go all the way.

If anyone has any experience or wise words to help me feel less overwhelmed about likely needing multiple surgeries and the shit load of money it's going to cost, I'd appreciate it!

Begging for anything fleur d'amour! 🙏🙏🙏

Hi friends, I hope this post is allowed. I am late to the game with falling in love with Popflex and Blogilates.

I'm on a weight-loss journey and have lost over 60 lbs. I just assumed the clothes wouldn't be flattering on me as a 1-2x, but I was wrong! They are amazing! I am obsessed with the fleur d'amour print, it is the most "me" print I've ever seen! I'm so sad that since I'm late to discovering the brand, all that's left is xxs 😭. I have been checking ALL the resale sites and Popcycle like it's my job. I have had no luck finding anything in my size. So I thought I'd go out on a limb and see if there is anyone here that might want to sell anything?? I would be forever grateful! I would happily buy anything in either a 1x, or 2x!
