Hello RS family…. I had been thinking about...

Hello RS family…. I had been thinking about getting lipo for a long time. Therefore, about a year ago I went to a PS and she told me that what I really needed was a TT. I have had 2 large babies and as a result I had a double hernia repair and bladder tack a few years ago. I was disappointed because lipo is quite a bit cheaper and as a single mother of 2 boys, money is always a problem. I am 47, 5’7” and 153 pounds. Not too out of shape.
Well, after careful consideration I decided that I just cannot afford a mommy makeover so I decided to start “shopping around’ I spoke with 5 different plastic surgeons and ALL of them said the same thing…. You DO NOT need a TT but lipo. I decided on Dr. Louis Obi because he performed the Slim Lipo, which is supposed to help tighten up the extra skin. I am going into this with some realistic expectations. I also loved the way Dr. Obi was with his explanations and he took a lot of time with me (over 2 hours) I got a tour and the whole 9 yards. I was impressed not only with his bedside manner but with his obvious skill level.
I have my pre op appointment today and I am very excited and nervous. My surgery is scheduled for February 19th. I will post some photos and how the preop goes later. Best of luck to everyone.

Consultation

Well, I arrived at the center with my significant other and we had a great meeting with the surgery coordinator. I had all of my questions (that I remembered) answered, prescriptions written and some instructions for aftercare. She also made sure to write down everything because there was no way I was going to remember all of the information. I am the first person scheduled for the day, which she said, is good because he has more time to talk with you about exactly what you want. My main goals are to get rid of this tummy and have my waist back. She said to make sure that I spoke to him about that and he would make sure that he concentrated on those areas. She also told me that I was a great candidate. I was within weight range and in good physical condition. Then came the hard part……. Paying. I am like OMG I am really spending all of this money on myself and I could like pay off my car instead. It was the hardest part. I know that I am going to go through buyer’s remorse but I hope that it does not set in for a while longer… hahah I now have 1 week until surgery. Only 7 days… OMG, OMG. I will keep everyone posted on how it goes and post a few new picture and measurements..

Countdown

Only a few more days to go. Getting the last of my supplies and getting the house cleaned up. Very excited.
