Wow! Great job!! I hit 123 this morning. I am excited about my lower body lift coming up in November.

So VERY happy for you!

Hubby's surgery at Mayo was a huge success and we are back home. Our experience was incredible, it is clear why Mayo has the reputation it has.

I will be thinking of you for your lower body lift. I really want to know the details of how it goes.

Take care!

I had mine June 17 2013. 130 lbs. Gone 7 tiny lbs to go. This is the hardest last 10 lbs. I hit a plateau for a couple weeks. But I'm loving mirrors ,clothes and the scale. Weird huh?

Less than two weeks until my lower body lift and I am getting more and more excited!

Wednesday is my lower body lift day! I'm a nervous wreck!

How are you feeling?

How are you doing? I have been thinking of you! Carol

I am doing ok. This surgery is no joke. I have a small blister on my but bone and that is what is driving me most nuts. Swelling is pretty intense. I have been resting and walking a lot. I can't believe how great it looks tho. I can't remember having a flat stomach and my surgeon gave me the cutest little tushy! He took off 6.8 lbs of skin. Every day gets a little better but I can say rny was a picnic compared to this. It will be worth it in the end.

Im glad your doing well! I'm 3 months post fleur de lis abdominoplasty and breast augmentation. It was no joke with the abdominal muscle tightening! I had 9lbs of skin removed. But now I can't even remember the pain and have returned to jogging and working out. I just don't have the belly skin flopping around anymore! Lol. And the scar is looking great but I would take a scar over the weight and skin anyday. Here is a current pic with most swelling gone and healing great!

Wow you look great! I still have all my drains in. How long until yours were pulled? I was hoping next week but honestly doubt it. Yesterday the swelling was awful but today a bit better. I can't stop looking at my rear wnd. I never in a million years thought it would be this cute. He tucked some of the fat in to give me a rounded shape instead of the flat tush I had. The muscle tightening is rough and I am still in anesthesia fog.

Oh and on tip of that I started my period last night. seriously unfair. Lol

Oh no! I kind of wish I had done the lower body lift so it would have lift my booty and thighs. But I think I will just do it in another procedure which is what he recommended. I had one drain for a week and the second one for 4-5 weeks bc I still had plenty of swelling and putting out more than 30cc a day. Some days are worse than others. The pain went away pretty quickly but it was the soreness,stiffness and swelling that would fluctuate for weeks.

Glad you are doing so well! I don't know if I would ever be brave enough to go through with it (let alone the money), but I am very glad insurance came through for you and you are happy with the results! You have a lot to be thankful for!
