All the best for your surgery. Having people like you post your stories (good and bad) is a wealth of knowledge. I am just about to start my journey - being banded on 4 November.

Wishing you a quick and painless recovery.

Renewed,

You are lovely before surgery. I can tell that (like me) you are apple-shaped. I bet that TT is going to make a world of difference in your shape. I can't wait to read about and see the fabulous results!!!!

Renewed, I've been thinking of you all day. Your b/a pics are amazing. You've done such a great job. You should be VERY proud.

Hi guys! I just got home and I thought I would update about Renewed. I talked with her DH about an hour ago and she was still in surgery. They decided to do the 360 degree lift, all the way around the tummy and back, and that's probably why it's taking a little longer than expected. He's going to call me when she is out of surgery, but I'm going to have to leave in just a bit, so it may be a little while before I can post again.

Keep sending up your prayers and positive thoughts. I'll update again as soon as I can.

Thanks Georgia Girl. Good luck on your 5K training. I see the race is just around the corner.

Holy Moly, Renewed, you look awesome! I can't wait till we can see you post op ps pics. I am sending good thoughts your way, hoping for a speedy recovery.

Okay guys, Renewed is doing GREAT!! She called me herself and she sounded sooooo good! The surgery went very well. She is staying in the hospital overnight and should be going home tomorrow. I can't get over how good she sounded on the phone.

They did do the 360 degree lift and I'm soooo glad it worked out that they could. I'm soooo excited for her and I can't wait to see her results!!

She appreciates all your prayers and support. Keep remembering her in your prayer and thoughts as she recovers. She will be posting as soon as she feels up to it. Thanks guys!

Renewed: Thanks for sharing your before pics. It's such an inspiration. Really gets me teary thinking about the possibilities when people decide to go for it! With the lower body lift, you're recovery is going to be tougher, but your results will be screaming! Congratulations!

So glad to hear the surgery went well and Renewed is feeling good.
