Dr. Obaid is a very friendly very smart PS. He takes the time to show you his work and answer all your questions. I love how he listens to your every word like you are his only patient. He gave me his personal cell number the day of surgery so I could directly call him! His work is amazing!!! I definitely recommend him and his staff! I love Lauren who works directly with him. Anytime I texted her, day or night, she promptly replied!

Long time, no post. ;)U look great!! So glad u decided to update! How is your swelling and numbness? I am at 15 months and still have some issues. Well worth it though! Congrats
Thanks!! You do too!! Wow! :-) I have some numbness still too. Seems like it's going to take forever for it to fully come back!?!?!! I still have swelling at my hips as the day progresses!! And I really hate that :-( I look "my best" first thing when I get up! Lol. Overall still very happy with it!
check you out sexy chica!! XOXO
Thanks girlie! :-D XOXO
Just wanted to let you know I had my sleeve. Been a week and already 13lbs down! Whoop whoop!
That is AWESOME girlie!! Wish I could lose that same amount!!!! How do you feel??
Feeling well. Whoever said getting the sleeve just feels like you did sit ups were a damn liar! Lol... My stomach is just now starting to feel better and I am 1 week PO today.
Oh no!! I hope the pain doesn't last long! :-(

Thank you!
You have a beautiful body! Congratulations!!! xoxox
Thank you!!
You look wonderful !
Thank you very much!
Just checking up on you. I will be 1 year post op next month, was wondering how you were doing?
Hey Lauren!! Still doing great! Thanks! I will be 1 year post op on the 25th. Still very happy! How are things for you??
Doing well. Still a lot of swelling... I will be a year may 9th. I feel like it will never end. Ha ha
Yeah I still have some swelling too. Ugh. Are you all healed up from your revision??
Yes. All healed up. I should be getting this gastric sleeve soon, and then I will have an entire scar revision, with a little lipo to upper pubis. It's still very puffy! I look like I'm packing in my panties. Ha ha. I am getting my boobs done next month though. So excited!
That's right! You're getting the gastric sleeve! When are you sched for that? What do they do for a scar revision?? Lol. Packing in your panties!! Yay for new boobs!! Lucky girl!!! I need a lift and inflate!!!
I'm trying to get it done this month. Waiting on passport. Scar revision is when they cut our your scar if it's thick and uneven, and your belly button scar and sew you back together perfect so there is a very minimal scar. Yes my boobs are getting lifted, I will heal, and then do implants if I feel I need them after gastric sleeve. I will be back down to my normal weight after the sleeve so 110-115. So I may like my small boobies,
Tell me again where you are having it done? Why is it taking so long for your passport? Wow that scar revision sounds awesome! My Dr. never mentioned anything like that?? I would love to be that weight!!
I'm having gastric sleeve. It's were they cut 80% of your stomach off. Very minimal recovery, and less complications than any weight loss surgery out there. While I am not fat, I do have a BMI of 35, and family history of over weight people, so it's to lose the weight I can't and preventative as well. As for the scar revision most people shouldn't need it, but if you're unhappy with the appearance of your scar, the height of it, you should be able to request a revision. Most doctors do not charge, but since I have moved to Texas, I found one to do a revision for a low cost. Plus my breasts as well.
Oh ok. I just now realized I never replied back to this. Lol. Lucky you getting your breasts done!! :-D
I can't believe I missed your last update, but you look great! How's the scar doing now? Still have numbness? I hope you are doing well! I scared myself out of my surgery, but I still want it. I just don't want to be cut open and risk being unhappy with it. I am totally over thinking it probably, but it's a pretty major surgery in my humble opinion. I am glad it has worked out so well for you though, results like yours make me still want to do it.
Hey girlie! Thank you!! I am very happy with my results! One of the best things I've ever done! Can't believe it will be a year on the 25th!! Maybe I'll take some 1 year post op pics!! :-)
