WORTH IT$13,000
I feel great and can stop buying new gorgeous clothing. Still working wit Dr Soto with the scars but that is a long process. At the beginning was very tough with the fungus infection and the stiches infections. But now is over I'm back to my normal routine and use to my new body. My husband is very happy too ;)

Dr. Soto is professional in all the aspects. At the beginning I was a little frustrated because sometimes during the healing process he was blaming me of doing something wrong or not following his instructions. He thought I was responsible of infections and skin problems. At a point that I was scared to go to my appointments. Until one day while I was waiting in the check room with the assistant I started to cry. I told her that I was sure he was going to reprimanded me again. I had another stich infected and I knew he was going to blame me. Apparently the nurse told him and he started the approach in different way. No more blaming me for something that was an evident cause of my delicate and high allergic skin type. After that day everything improved the relationship and the confidence between each other. I will say that is the only reason I'm not giving him a perfect score. But he is a good Dr. and very proud and passionate on his job also a great human being . I will recommend him with no reserve just make sure to keep the communication channel always open. About his staff all of them are very courteous and sweet from the anesthetist to the receptionists.

Yesterday I did exercise for the first time in six weeks

I use to do 7 miles in 68 minutes in my elliptical machine. I could only do 4 miles in 46 minutes :(
But this morning I went shopping and I tried some swimsuits. I'm still swollen but I look better than before the surgery.

So glad you are healing well now. It's been quite a process for you!
Am happy you are able to even get on the elliptical after what you have been through. And you know each time you get on will be easier than the last. Keep it up, and thanks for sharing. You look amazing!
Thank you!!

Sixth week

After 4 rounds of antibiotics and 2 rounds of antifungal medication. Today during my appt. my belly bottom stiches were cut. Also I can start my regular exercises, he said I can stop wearing the compression garment and I can wear regular bras. I still getting swollen in the night. He is going to see me next week because now he will work minimizing the scars. But, I will keep using a different garment not because he told me but to help ease the swollenness. I will post pics soon...
