There's been a lot of discussion here about the rolls of fat or flabby skin that are left behind after weight loss surgery and successful weight loss.
My fat rolls are all over my torso and I am sick and tired of them. I think I mentioned the belly fat roll that covers three horizontal surgical scars. My doctor has me on a standing prescription of clotrimazole to deal with the yeast that grows in that perfectly lovely environment. Of course, I don't pay for it. It comes along with my insurance coverage. But I am not anywhere near faithful in applying it and I feel rebellious about the fact that I have to.
If I had been approved for skin removal surgery when I first started complaining about this particularly large roll, it would have been less expensive than it cost during all the years I've been using the cream.
So, after I finish cleaning my house and divesting myself of useless items, I am going to lobbying hard until I convince my doctor that I need this surgery.
I'm an old hippie who wears Levi's all the time and I have a hard time buttoning them shut because of my belly. I have narrow hips and well-proportioned thighs and calves, but then there's this whale sized blob of useless abdominal tissue that requires me to buy a larger size or wear stretch pants. Thank God for elastic.
I know my problems are not as important as the COVID epidemic, but I think I have the right, at 70 years old, to have just one thing off my mind. I've got 20 or 30 years to live, knock wood, and I deserve to live them without shame.
I swear, if I could have this type of surgery and liposuction, I wouldn't need my therapist. I've adjusted to life with past trauma and I don't do anything to hurt others or to allow others to hurt me. I don't eat crazy and I don't gain wait. I'm not looking for perfection because I'm simply not a pretty woman. I'm a mountain woman.
Yes, I am vain. But I'm not conceited. I'm not looking to win a beauty pageant. I just want to be able to bend over without being afraid of busting my pants at the waist.
So I'm going for it. Wish me luck.
I would love to hear from anyone here who has managed to get skin removal surgery like the type I am seeking.
