| plastic surgery phase one done!
I have had some people ask for an update so here goes! I am almost 2 weeks post plastic surgery....tummy tuck, breast lift and arm lift. I am so very happy so far with the results. If anyone has questions ask away, I know I had friends on here that really helped make ther decision and be ok when I struggleds right after! I thought recovery was a breeze, pain was minimal to be honest....my lap rny hurt my tummy more, go figure! I will post pics at some point.... my best advice is find the best surgeon even if you pay more! Mine, Dr. Mazaheri works on WLS patients and is incredible, he is featured on TLC since he was. Surgeon to David from the show 650 pound virgin.
When I can afford it I want to finish my ps and do my legs.....anyone that has done that please chime in with the good, bad, and any advice!

Good to hear the update!!! I am so glad you had an easy recovery. I was a little nervous that I kept telling you it was easy....I started thinking geez...hope its not real bad for her then she thinks I am crazy. I am still undecided on legs. My inner thighs need some help but...I have been though 3 major operations in less then 14 months and I think I am going to hold off for a while. I can't wait to see your pics. I am sure you look amazing

Ok I will post arm pics asap....my surgeon uses glue to close the incision and its purplish so they look weird right now, I am hoping he removes that tomorrow so I can get good pics. It was so cool seeing dr. Mazaheri on the tlc show tonight....I am gonna give him a hard time tomorrow about being a movie star!

I really want to do my legs too, but like Shannon, I need to hold off for awhile. I've used up all my sick leave and vacation time on all the surgeries (WLS, gallbladder, first round of plastics - plus all the followups and pre-tests). So you might be the one taking the lead on the leg surgery!
Glad you had an easy time.
