Ready for Round 2 ! (2 years since my tummy)

Hello everyone!

To keep it short, I've got a consultation with Sono Bello this friday at 10:45 am! I am ready to tackle my spongebob square shaped rear. My bum is really square I think as a result of my love handles and short waist. On the pic You'll see the red marks off what I want taken care of. I accidentally deleted the pic that shows the back and side view where you can clearly see that its' just a large pocket of fat. You can also still see the small fat pocket that is still by my belly button.

I've started back with the healthier eating and working out, but I'm not one with patience... I'm also doing somewhat of an HCG diet to prepare for a bachelorette party I'm hosting on Halloween in Nashville, and for the wedding I'm in in November. I've got to be honest, I'm sort of thinking about getting my tummy touched up again... I don't know for sure though because I don't feel like dealing with the annoying itchiness after...
I'll let you know for sure!

Questionable Practice...

For starters: My results are still pretty good. I do still have a tiny fat pocket by belly button, but it's nothing horrible. I've gained a little weight since then, but I plan on getting it back together with exercise and diet correction. I'd love to have more work done, but that can wait. I'm going to try to do it the old fashioned way... But, I'd love to get my butt done! LOL. Nothing massive, just a bit rounded out, and some of this spongebob squareness taken away.

I'd attempted to contact Dr. Boutte's office to schedule a new consult, however, haven't been so luck to get scheduled. I received one call back from Crystal (the person you meet with for smartlipo) but no emails or phone calls have been returned since the initial call. I think I know why...

Dr. Boutte's office was shown on Fox News related to a large number of surgical patients becoming very ill and infected. I figure the office's distance is for this reason. However, it would be best if they did actually return calls. To make matters worse, I've started a new internship and met a woman who caught an infection from their office, and has a terrible fat pocket on only 1 side. You can grab the fat and yet the other side is smooth. She has called numerous times and left many voicemails, and can't manage to get a return call.

If you want more details regarding the infections, I suggest you google it. My coworker is going to see another physician in an attempt to get her stomach corrected.

A full year post op and still glad I had it done....

A full year post op and still glad I had it done. The only thing is that I didn't keep up half my bargain with myself. I still don't have a workout routine u can stick with, and I still need to lose weight. Currently I weigh in around 160. At one point I started the HCG diet regimen and got closer to 150, but I didn't completely follow through.

I never went for my 6 month follow up. A tiny fat deposit is still left by my belly button, but when my weight drops it almost disappears.

Still glad I did it, but now I need to work on the definition and toning process and quit being lazy! Commit and follow through ladies and gents. While it seems magical, it isn't magic and requires work on your end as well.

Appointment was at 10am We started around 11am. However, I had no problem with it at all. It gave me time to laugh it up with my best friend in the waiting area and watch television. The process was great and speedy at the time. However, new developments surrounding patients becoming ill and infected have me worried for the practice. Phone responsiveness was initially great, however, they have also stopped returning many people's phonecalls and been featured on Fox News.
