My Plastics Journey - My first one (of several)

My Consultation is on Monday and I'm hopeful I will be able to schedule for September 1st. I already know which Dr. I want to use as I've seen his work first hand and it's really really good. He also does reconstructive surgery for weight loss patients. I might want to get many consults at that point, and most likely might choose another Dr. for my Total Body Lift. However, that won't be for a few years from now. I am still considering doing the arm lift but will wait to see how time heals that.

Attached are my pre-op photos. Right now my breasts are a 34C, however I bet if I wanted to fit in a B cup I probably could. My breasts totally flattened out in the last 20 Lbs!! They were doing great for a long time. I do believe I'm going to go for about a DD. As far as the knees, as you can see no explanation is necessary. I'm sure having that extra pillow of fat will feel so much more comfortable for me, during workouts and just the way my clothes fit. I'm very excited about this and I'm ready to go!!! :D

Thanks Ladies!!!! I'm sooo glad I'm done with all this :) It will be fun taking photos and posting the final product in a few months.

It's been a long and nerve wrecking ride. For me and here out I'm just going to recover, do my workouts, eat properly and do a tiny bit of spot toning until I fit in my itty bitty fours. LOL!! I did buy some Size 0 jeans from Zappos which based on the measurements are exactly the same as those 4's hanging on my closet door. It will be fun putting those on! Vanity sizing or not. However long that takes, I just don't care. I'm here!!!

:cheers2:

Awesome job Diva!!!! Get some rest!!!

WOW, I bet it feels AMAZING to be DONE! I can't wait for the results, and I'm so happy the pain on the second go-round isn't as bad. Also, um, YAY for free...OMG you are going to look so great! So happy for you!

Thanks for the encouragement favored and M2G. :smile1: I'm sooo glad I did all of this, even if it means some pain, swelling and bruising - even the setback with my workouts. Ugghh I think that's what I hated the most. It is what it is tho!

Here's a pic I just took right now! OMG OMG OMG!!! I see KNEES!!! The shape so far is incredible... my surgeon is a MASTER!!! *happy dance* I'm so excited to see the final product in 6 months. It will be a good good day!

Heehee thanks! I'm all giddy about it! ;o) I haven't seen my knees in 25 years... it's a GREAT DAY!! I even just right now got a compliment from a co-worker - she knows about my procedure but she said they are coming along great. She's interested now in lipo... haha :)

I wanted to throw in an update because just... WOW!!! For MONTHS I've been stressing due to all the swellings, weight gains and whatever else comes with plastic surgery... however - as always with time comes healing and RESULTS!!! Every single day now I'm seeing humungous differences!! I'm over the moon right now, and THANKING EVERYTHING GOOD that I chose the right surgeons. They performed literally miracles for me. I. AM. HAPPY.

In the last 4 weeks alone I've dropped NEARLY 15 INCHES off my whole body!!!! YAYAYEEESSSSS!!!!!

It was 28" 2 days ago when I measured but heck since last night its smaller now. I had a belt where the holes go all the way around it and I made a mark measured to 27" for my "goal" a long time ago. I can buckle it smaller than that. I only do the measuring tape every 2 weeks, so gotta wait... heeheeheeeee!!!!

*In Heaven*
