It's a while guys, but I wanted to give a quick update. I attended a fitcamp here in town sponsored by Herballife. I enjoyed the fitcamp and decided to participate in the 8 week Body Transformation Challenge. Here are my results!

Hey guys here is quick update. After surgery, I gained 20lbs from being inactive and stressed. And once again I wasn't feeling the way I looked. But recently I decided to take charge of my life again. Since the surgery, I haven't had any additional therapy... simply because I couldn't afford it. lol I haven't seen my surgeon since I had the drains removed but I plan to see him soon. I think I may need an additional liposuction to finish everything off. Guess we will see,

I know you need to like what you see when you look in the mirror. If you don't mind my saying, from a personal trainers perspective I can see the writing on the wall: When you get back into exercise for a few weeks, you will see some really good results. You have exactly what we like to start with for a client in the chest department. And I can tell genetics are in your favor for muscle development.

Now, from a woman's perspective, you look great just like you are. Really. :-)

Congrats on taking charge. i think you look pretty buffed! Not a bad place to start. Your pecs look muscular and if you are focusing on working out you'll quickly see results. Thank you so much for sharing your 5 month update. Please do keep us posted!

Thank you all for kind words and feedback. I greatly appreciate it. Especially the women perspectives. I realize this is only the beginning of a journey. I'm grateful for where I'm at. But I also want to challenge myself and continue to workout. Thanks again

Finally had my drain removed yesterday. Dr.Kalus also said I could stop taking my antibiotics now. Which is great because they made nauseated sometimes. Seems like the swelling is improving. Dr. Kalus also wanted to start messaging Lidoderm lotion over the scars of my areolas to help with healing. I also have to wear my under armor compression shirt 24/7 with exception of showering, for 4 weeks, My next follow up appointment is scheduled for May 8.

Congratulations! I'm about 4 weeks post-op now. Your results already look great and will continue to improve. Its amazing how much better I look in t-shirts post-procedure. Its something someone that hasn't been plagued with this issue cannot fully appreciate. Congratulations again and rest up!

Thanks. The recovery process has been longing than I thought it would be. The biggest challenge is managing my weight until I can return to my normal exercise routine. Since the surgery I have purchased a bunch of tank tops and flips flops. Thanks again, Heal well
