Tell us more Niecsey! How long did you take to heal, and what size were you, and are now? Has it made a big difference to you?
I've spent a year trying to lose a measly stone to bring my BMI down for me to be considered for the op. By going to the gym I've lost inches, but the scales have hardly moved because muscle is heavier than fat and I've built up some muscle. This whole BMI business is nonsense. My arms ( always my best and slimmest feature) have become very thin now.
I'm now considering trying to go private, as I'm thinking they'll be less picky about a few excess pounds, most of which is on my boobs anyway! My friend said I look size twelve from the back, and twenty from the front.
The major obstacle is my husband. He's happy for me to have it done for free, but won't countenance paying £5000 or whatever is, though we
can afford it.
