I am a mother of 4 grown children and 4...
Then, 5 yrs ago one of my sons joined the military. And so my journey began. The life of a military mom and basically empty nester. Something just clicked and I needed an outlet. I was so proud of my son and all my children. I couldn't let him, them, down. I wanted them to look up to me and be just as proud of me as I was of them! I had my WHY and was very motivated!
I started controlling my portions first and then making better, healthier choices. And I found my outlet....the gym. This time of so many times before was different. I got it. And I loved it! I left so much on that gym floor. So many emotions! And everyday I left that gym, and I mean everyday, I felt powerful! And much better than when I went in. I was always glad I pushed through and got my workout in! And there were days I wasn't feeling it but I went anyway. And so here I am, almost 5 yrs later, and 100lbs lighter.... again(give or take)!!???? I lost it and have kept it off! I GOT THIS!! I will not be that [RS bleep] woman ever again!
BUT........And yes here it comes.....the But.....weight loss isn't all it's cracked up to be. I lost the weight and got in the best shape I've ever been. I feel amazing and look amazing! At least in clothes. When the clothes come off, thats when you see the damage of 4 pregnancies and decades of bad eating that no amount of gym time could erase. The loose skin!????
And so here I am, finally, to the whole point of this. My review. Sorry for the long rant but had to give the history of how I got to this point. With lots of research and talking to people who have been there done that, I decided to address my biggest insecurities, my tummy and breasts. With my boyfriend, GOD love him at my side and making it possible, we end up at Dr Mandell-Brown's office. After several visits with other Dr's, he was the end of my searching.
Provider Review
My first interaction was with Hedy. I love Hedy! We learned more from Hedy in the hour she spent with us than all the Dr's previously! And then in comes Dr Mandell-Brown and Dr. George!! Love love Dr Mandell-Brown!! He spent just as much time with us if not more. He has a great personality as does everyone in his office!! No pressure whats so ever and very informative and personal! We left there confident in our decision to go for it and confident in him and his staff! Our search ended that day. I am now 3wks post op from my mommy makeover and couldn't be happier. I finally have a body that looks as hard as I've been working!! My experience with everyone in Dr Mandell-Brown's office, including Dr Mandell-Brown, was above and beyond. They genuinely are concerned about you and want you to be happy and comfortable. Dr Mandell-Brown even called several evenings after my surgery to check on me and make sure there were no issues. I felt like the only patient in the world. Skill, personality and great bedside manner....what else do you need? He is an artist who genuinely wants you to be happy with his work! Oh, I forgot to mention something equally important, and that's the cleanliness of his facility. He sees his patients and has surgical suite in same building. My boyfriend who is a clean freak and germiphob was very impressed with how clean it was. It was the first thing he noticed and mentioned the first time we walked in the office. Wow ok. I feel like I'm leaving something out. Haha. I guess I will sum it up then. I am very pleased with how everything has gone so far. I am very happy with the results and love how my breasts and tummy look! It was all worth it and I would highly recommend Dr Mandell-Brown. If I decide to do anything else, I will definitely return to Dr Mandell-Brown!!
