Sunday I leave for a little trip. I am going to stay a few days with a friend and then tuesday I fly out to Mexicali again. I am going to have a face lift. It will be done by Dr. Juan Luque.

I can't stand my turkey neck and the big lines . I heard the plastic surgeon

at my irl support group. He calls them marionette lines. I hate them!

So my friend moved to Mexicali. I will be in the hospital for 4 days, then I am going to go and recover at her house . I'll be gone 2 weeks. I haven't told many people and I hope I don't look much different. It's pretty scary to have someone cut on your face!

I am really excited that I am going to see Dr. Aceves and Dr. Campos again. I am going to have an upper GI while I am there, which I was supposed to have done a long time ago. I am not having any problems, but Dr. Aceves likes to look at the sleeve after you are post op awhile. I'll be able to find out how much it's stretched.

I am scared and excited both. What an adventure.

Can't wait to hear how it went - I am fairly young but have never had a nice neck/jawline and post weightloss, I have a turkey gobble that dangles, I absolutely HATE it! Haven't investigated plastics yet but would love to get that and my droopy upper eyelids fixed!

Oooh best of luck with your travel, surgery and healing. Please keep us posted!

Praying for safe travels, successful surgery, uneventful upper GI, and a quick recovery.

WOW! Well it was scary and exciting to have somebody cutting on our stomachs too and look how good that turned out :-) So happy for you and good luck!!!
