Today, I am One Month, Two Days out from my Mommy Makeover (Tummy tuck, butt lift, fat transfer, LIPO, breast reconstruction, and lift, as well as augmentation) with Dr Niebles ( Neibles) in TJ Mexico.

This man is a miracle worker, and I feel like I am finally in the body that I was meant to be in my whole life!

I had my gastric sleeve May 15, 2012.

Lost my weight (110lbs) right away, and then stayed at my goal and held for 6 more months until May of this year, and booked my body reconstruction with not so high expectations of the outcome. Every day I look at my body and I can't believe that it's mine! I am finally in the body that I belong in! I am about 10 more lbs down. I could NOT be happier with my new body and my new LIFE!

Where did you have lipo done on your body? Can we see update pics?

Of course- but I'm wearing my compression garments until 6 weeks as instructed- so it will be after that. Six weeks is Monday- and I will do them after that.

Lipo was from my shoulders down to the top if my butt. He contoured my sides, my back, etc. I will show you photos if that also.

The fat was injected into my butt for my lift :-)

Which I'm so happy for- my butt was so flat and skinny.... Not skinny- but SKIN'y. Too much skin.

It's great now :-)

This is the photo that I sent to Dr two weeks after surgery- you can see all of the bruises are healing- but brutal bruising from the lipo- yeah not pretty!

The lines are from the CG- not permanently on my body ;-)

Congrats Missy!

Compliments always help, don't they? Look forward to seeing more of your photos! I am alot older than you, but hope I can look half as good... and I will be happy! My surgery make-over is scheduled this August and I am counting the days! Thank you for sharing your story!

Cheers, Dottie

You really look great. Thanks for posting all of your information. I'm curious about your recovery. How long we're you in Mexico? How long did you have to take off of work once you returned? Thanks for sharing!

Mylifeinpink, OMG what an amazing transformation! You look HOT! Congrats to you!!!!

I'm a mere 10 days away from having my breast lift/reduction surgery, which I'm having locally. I am TOTALLY going to Mexico for the rest of my plastic surgeries (lower body lift, face lift, and arm lift). Dr. Niebles here I come!!!

You look hawt!!! Congratulations. So happy for you =)

Dottie, thank you so much! Yes, compliments help, but it's not nessesary, the amount of ladies that get to look at these photos, and never reply, or that email me privately is astonishing~ I know it helped me to see photos of inspiration, so that's my only goal from sharing! <3 You're very sweet! You're well on your way with a set date, and I am SO excited for you! <3

Here if you need anything!

Missy~ <3

Thank you very much! I appreciate that, and you are more than welcome!

I was in MX only 4 days after surgery, I had surgery on Monday morning for 12 hours (9-9) then I went to the hotel at 130 in the afternoon on Tuesday, then I left to come back to the US on Thursday, it was MORE than enough time. I was ready to go home! <3

I have a physical job, I took off 6 weeks, but I had very extensive lipo done, and I still have some areas of tightness in all the areas that were worked on. I won't be back 100% for about 6 months, but I think I am a big baby! <3
