I look forward to finding others who are having surg around same time as me ..

Hi there :). Congrats on your decision to do this. You sound similar to me. I had my TT in march. I'm 46 and have 2 kids in their 20's. also had wanted a TT for about 20 years. Im in south fl too. Pembroke pines. The procedure was life changing for me. I am so happy with my results. I wish you the best of luck!

My surgeon was dr Ramiro morales in Miramar. I had about 4 wks of bad swelling. Then a few months of mild swelling. It's a process and everyone is different. A good compression garment helps a lot though.

Saw my PS yesterday .. They did blood work and a EKG ... talked for a while with the PS - hes very nice , patient and answered all my questions ... He did say I may want to lose some weight before the surgery (which I already knew lol ) I have started eating healthy and working out again .. I had stopped when I sprained my ankle and was in a air cast for 8 wks then the holidays came and eating right and working out seemed to go out the window .. but , I'm back on track ... so heres hoping to lose 10-15 lbs by surgery dated of March 4th

Just thought I would update been alittle bit since Ive written .. Trying to lose this weight before the surg has been very depression .. I am eatting very healthy ( Im a pescatarian - vegetarian that its fish ) so I usually eat healthy anyway - Ive cut out all junk and limited my starch , and salt ... I started working out with 2 friends on Monday , Wedsday and Friday - and on my own the other days and really havent seen much change .. I know it takes awhile and I need to be patient but Im not .. lol ..
Been following everyday all the wonderful blogs and love watching the outcomes ... I am still extremely nervous dont want to be the one who doesnt like it when its all said and done .. but I am extremely excited .. Trying not to wish away my days but am anxious for March ..
Well, hope all that are having surg today good luck and hopefully not any pain ..

Hi there :). Keep up the diet and exercise. That is awesome! I lost the last few stubborn lbs by eating raw foods. Lots of raw veggies and fruit. Don't eat after 8 and sugars only for breakfast or lunch. This may help get your metabolism going. Best of luck :).

I use white balsamic vinegar and flax seed oil or olive oil. Lemon juice is good too.
