Official before and after pics



Recommended Posts

I wanted to post my Dr's official before and after pics. THe link to my whole journey is below. I am about 5 1/2 months post op and 3 weeks post revision. The Dr and I are very happy with the results. I still have some swelling, but that can last up to a year post op. Thanks for all the support I have gotten here.

Neal,

You look great. I am so happy for you!

I will get my tt in September and cannot wait! My hang has been a real bother for over twenty years!

Thanks for putting the pics up. I know there is a bit of pain at first, but when I see how well you look, I know it will be well worth it!

Hey stranger, was wondering how you've been. I asked about you on MMH, but no one responded. Thanks for the compliments. I have actually been doing yardwork shirtless and getting alittle tan! :wink2: It feels great. Hope all is well with you too.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
