I'm soooo excited for you, FSC!!!!!!! I'm looking into tummy tuck/lift/arm work. I may wait on the lift as my tummy and arms really bother me. I can only imagine how you must be feeling!!!!!!!!Congrats again!

Bumping up this thread. 10 days until my pre-op work and 16 days until my abdominalplasty and breast augmentation!!! I'm getting very nervous, very excited, very anxious. My surgery is on the 29th of August and I should be home and will try, try, try to post from my bed by the 31st. With before and during pictures attached. My husband and nurses will help me with that.

I can't wait to here how surgery goes. I live in Reno and hope to be banded before the end of the year so I will probably be looking for a plastic surgeon next year. Good luck and congrats!:clap2:

Why would they make you go through anesthesia twice??? I would make sure one anesthesia- one day - do it all at the same session or I might consider finding someone who would. They can then charge you seperate for 2 sessions. That is silly to put you through that. I have seen many patients who have had both procedures done at the same time. Of course by picture only, doing research for my own PS. Good luck

I must have posted late on a comment. OH well. Good luck to you. I hope to be in your shoes soon.

I think they are now doing the surgery at the same time. I know they are not charging me for both because they made me get cashiers checks to be paid before surgery and the anestesia is only $1140. I go in for my pre-op appt on Thursday so I guess I will know then.

FSC??? What did you find out????? Are you just about as excited as a spud gettin' ready to get fried??? Hey, I AM from Idaho!!

Okay. the doctor's office took extensive before photos of my breasts and stomach. My surgery is on Wednesday the 29th at 9:30 a.m. I will be back home by Friday night and will do EVERYTHING in my power to post the pics taken up until then. I told my husband to take pics in recovery, and when they open it up to check it while I'm in hospital. He promised he would. I will post by Friday night. If not, I will have him post them. I'm so excited and very, very nervous. I will be 13 months out from lap-band surgery on the day of my plastic surgery. 120 lbs lost in 13 months. And to be honest with ya, I didn't really lose any weight the first few months or the last few months. So don't get discouraged if you slow down. It picks back up. TALK TO YA'LL SOON!!
