Can't wait!

The more I have time to think about my choice of surgeon, the happier I am with who I chose. I just got an email from the person that first suggested her. She had her surgery on the 25th, and she seems SO happy right now. I have to admit, I'm jealous! She had her pain pump removed today, along with one of her drains, and she says her results are fantastic so far. The surgeon even sent her flowers!

I admit, I'm worrying about whether I'll really be able to afford this financially, but I KNOW I can't afford to NOT do it, emotionally/psychologically. God, I can't wait until I can schedule a surgery date!

Hi Laurend - Congrats on getting a tt & bl (arms???) I am happy for you..
I have a questions for you on the arms (my biggest concern) mine are awful -but I hear that sometimes the scar is worse than the skin - what is your p.s. saying?? OMW great surgeon to send you flowers..
Thanks,

Hi Lauren, my surgery is scheduled for 4/21. The PS said I am a perfect candidate for the tummy tuck. I was also excited that the thigh lift will not be cutting down the inner thigh but rather tucked at the top. I am now in a size 16 and I'm hoping to get in a 14 or 12. Wish me luck!

I might get my arms done eventually (they're starting to sag a bit), but my first order of business is the tummy tuck and a breast lift.

OH stupid me thought bl was short for bilateral (sp) whatever the tech name for the arm surgery is...

Well I am happy that you are getting the TT & BL (i could use both) - but right now - don't know if I want the pain of surgery again - my boobs were saggy even 80 lbs ago in fact I haven't changed cup size but they are deflated. I'm 53 so even with PS I'm not going to have the body of a 20 yrs old - time will tell - good luck - I am happy for you..
