Hi Everyone,
I am new here. I am so excited to be heading towards the flatside! I have had lipo of the abdomen done about 8 years ago (no children) and I was maintaining it really well until I became ill about 4 years ago. I have had a total of 5 surgeries of which one of them was a full hysterectomy. I now have a vertical scar up my stomach that I hate. I was on steroids for a bit so I've gained at least 55lbs, which puts me at 236.5lbs. Now that I am off of all of my meds and and have been cleared to have this surgery by all of my doctors, I am ready to get back to me! April 6th cant get here fast enough. I will be traveling by airplane from Columbus, OH to Columbus, GA (same city go figure lol). I am nervous about flying after my surgery (1.5 hour flight) but I have read many of your post so I am prepared for what to expect. My friend told me about Dr Thomas and how good all of his reviews were. After searching for a PS that I was comfortable with here in Ohio with no luck , I started to research Dr Thomas reviews and was floored with what I read! I immediately took before pics and sent them to him. As soon as he contacted me back with his suggestions of what I needed and made me feel so comfortable, I paid my deposit and secured my date. I will post my horrid before pics tonight (lol). Thank you for reading!

Are you traveling home the same day after surgery? If so, did tell Dr. C.
I had surgery on the 30th of January and you are out of it. Most of us don't remember much about the day of surgery especially if you have a low tolerance to meds.
It's hard enough getting up and down with, lipo and a TT but you're having your Arm tuck, which is going to make that process more difficult. Also, I got blood clots in my tubing from going home after 5 days in a car to Nashville, TN. I stayed at the Fair Field Inn 6 night before heading home, which was a hard trip on my body.
Praying for you and be safe!

I started the JJ Smith cleanse yesterday. I planned to lose 20lbs by April 6th. I've lost 6lbs since I took the pics I posted. I should be able to lose fast since I'm not on steroids any longer. I get depressed every time I look at those pics. Sigh.. Oh well a new me is coming!

Yes, only look forward!! You are going to look fabulous and feel great about yourself!

Be careful when trying to loss 20 lb the next 5 weeks. Improper diet can cause some of your blood work results to come back low which could postpone your surgery. Even moderate dieting can cause low Iron and B12 and inadequate hemoglobin will cancel your surgery. Extreme dieting during the weeks before surgery like you are planning can create complications during your procedures and healing issues. Also, dieting this extreme could leave you very tired before your surgery and you will need your strength.

Hey just reading your blog. Have you tried juicing to lose some of the weight? I have 10 lbs to lose as per my ps but I opted for 20lbs instead and have been juicing and eating healthy foods..

Yes. I'm currently on the JJ Smith smoothie cleanse. I've lost 6lbs this week. I've totally changed my eating habits. I feel great.
