I am a 38 yr old married mom of 4. I have always been on the heavier side and have struggled with my weight. I've tried all diets imaginable and have conformed to the fact that I will never be a size 6 so I decided to just eat well, mainly fruits, vegetables and lean protein. This alone should be working to lower my weight BUT has not. I walk, a lot, but no substantial weight loss. My biggest issue, I would say, is self image and my thunder thighs that have caused me so much grief, mostly due to the chub rub, so here I am, decided to get that fat out at any cost. Liposuction was always a last option as I had a bad experience many years ago having had an abdominoplasty in another country to save some money and paid for it so much more with all the pain I endured. I feel a little selfish in splurging so much on myself but decided if I don't like me, I can never give the best of me. I am having liposuction of my thighs, flanks, back and arms (and anywhere my Dr. sees fit ;-) ) I'm looking forward to the end result and excited doesn't even begin to describe what I feel. Will attach my before pics soon.

Good luck with your surgery. Dr. Rex did a tummy tuck revision with muscle repair and some lipo for me this year. Excellent doctor. You are in good hands. He does not over promises. Sets very realistic expectations. No complications. Would not hesitate to have any procedure done with him.

Hope everything went well! I plan to go w. Him! It's mission impossible to get an answer from his office , my question is from your consultation to the surgery how far apart were they, will I be able to get something in September 2015

Its almost time and I'm getting ready. I'm nervous, excited and all of the above. I'm preparing myself with everything I need and trying to relax. I'm waiting for the call to know what time in the a.m. I need to be there but I'm glad to have the 1st appointment as I've heard it is always the best. I hope to see myself in a new light after all this as I've been wanting this for so long.
