I haven't been on this site in a while but I just had to share that I will be having my lower body lift on June 21st! I am so excited. And for anyone who may be interested, I am having it done by Dr Bruce Mast at the University of Florida. He is top in his field and UF is a top medical school. They do it as an outpatient procedure so I will be home the same day and because it's a teaching hospital it is so much cheaper than private practice. he will be doing my inner thighs, arms, and breast lift in November as well.

That is great news!!

What a great idea, let us know how it goes!

Very exciting! Good luck!

Congratulations!! I just had my LBL on Monday and came home yesterday. So far, it has been great. I stayed two nights in the hospital, which was really nice! The first day post op was a little rough, just trying to get up and move more. Nothing the pain meds couldn't help! When I'm at rest, I feel great. Getting up takes practice, but if you use your arms and legs it is ok! I find the hardest thing is trying to get out of bed after sleeping. I slept I. Our downstairs couch last night so I could be up at an angle, but getting up was painful. Just one little spot on my incision, but it went away fast . I am LOVING my results so far. I know there is still a lot of swelling g, but even despite that I am thrilled!!! Good luck to you! You'll do great!!!! [emoji1]

If you don't mind me asking, how much was you surgery?

I am thinking about doing my arms early next year. The LBL will be end of next year if I get all the weight off.
