I qualify for the surgery and I have scheduled my surgery date for Monday, August 31, 2015! They gave me a packet of information to go through and I also received my pre-op diet food, which I will eat for the two weeks prior to my surgery. I still have to have my psychological appointment, and then my pre-op tests (1-2 weeks prior) and finally I will need the okay from my regular doctor before the surgery.
I will be self-pay and I'm having it done through the program at Woman's Hospital in Baton Rouge. My total cost will be $14,800.
Here are the results from the Body Composition Analyzer at the surgeon's office:
Weight 254.0 lb
BMI 46.5
BMR 7804 kJ/ 1865 kcal
Impedance 393
Fat% 50.5%
Fat Mass 128.51 lb
FFM (Fat Free Mass) 125.51 lb
TBW (Total Body Water) 92.01 lb
Desirable Fat% Range 23-34%
Desirable Fat Mass Range 37.5-64.5 lb
I also took a little time this morning to take body measurements:
Neck 16.5"
Upper Arm 21.5"
Wrist 7.25"
Bust 52.5"
Chest 47"
Waist 51.5"
Hips 57"
Thigh 27.5"
Calf 17.75"
I may have gone a bit overboard with the measurements, but I figured that I would rather track too much information than not enough.
Here are my current clothing sizes:
Tops/Dresses 22/24 (or 3X)
Pants 22/24
Bra ~44 B/C
Panties 9/10
Shoes 8.5-9 M
Finally, I took some "Before" pictures. I figured today is my first round of information. I will follow-up when I start my pre-op diet and then the day of surgery. From there we shall see! I'm more excited than nervous today, but I'm sure I will experience a wide array of emotions!
