Well after two years of trying to convince my husband to get on board with this lipo business, he finally agreed two days ago! So in order to erase any chances of him changing his mind, I made my first appointment and say Dr Marciano at great neck spa today.

The consultation was good. I had done a tonne of research before so I never had a whole lot of questions. I think that I was way too excited so I forgot a lot that I wanted to ask but I have time to ask cause mu surgery day is not until July. The Dr is jam packed! That was the most disappointing thing but I guess that means she must be good cuz she sure ain't cheap!

I received some antibiotics to fill and take one say prior to the procedure and I'm suppose to have some blood work done.

Based on the consultation she said that all the fat that I can pinch will be gone and I will be flat...an that's all I pray for and how all goes well.

Any new updates u will post and closer to the date I will post my before pics. Let's pray n hope all goes well.

Well so far so good. She was very frank and to the point. No frills just facts and I like that because it helps with my expectation levels. OK so now that i have done my procedure let me just say that Dr Marciano is great. She is so calm and even though i was a nervous wreck she really just got me to calm down by distracting me from with conversation. During the whole thing she spoke to her assistant but i wasn't really into the convo but i never really felt ignored or anything. she was definitely working. She is very precise and was like an artist carving a masterpiece.. Overall i would say she was great. the only thing i can say is that when she was done she was gone like a flash. i don't know if she had someone else or what but she was out the room pretty quickly. the assistants basically finished up with the bandage, the compression suit and after care instructions

I just said a prayer for you. All will go well. Dr. M. is straight to the point and did what she said she was going to do with me. Added security is you are awake during the procedure. You will be fine. July is right around the corner!

Day of treatment

Counting down to the big day

So over the course of the past month I have been reading a lot of posts and doing too much research ...so as of today I'm gonna just stop, trust in God and pray that all will be well

I just need a few questions answered. How do I prepare for this surgery? What do I need to bring with me and what do I need to have at home? Which foods are the best to eat? I hope other members will help by tellin me how they prepped for their surgery.

I'm super excited tho. I'm going to get my blood work done tomorrow and fill my prescription for antibiotics. I'm gonna also give Dr M a call today to see if I can get another consultation before my actual surgery because I'm also very nervous and unsure about a few things.

I guest it's safe to say my emotions are all over the place. By the way I'm hoping I'm not pregnant! Fingers crossed

tomorrow id the big day

ok guys tomorrow is the big day and im so nervous. I feel like I know what to expect based on my consultation but more so because of all these reviews by you lovely ladies.. The fact that you have taken time out to keep us updated is really a blessing because I feel like i know a whole bunch of people who went through or are going through the same thing i am going through.

I started taking my antibiotics today (as per doctors instructions) and im a little worried because i see a lot of people posting that they started taking arnica and antibiotics way before the day of their surgery. Anyway, im gonna take a shower in a minute and i will be back with some before photos
