Yearly update.. things continue to improve
Just a quick update... things have continued to improve, I have been working with a personal trainer 5 days a week for the past year. I stopped all cardio and lift weight almost exclusively... it was scary at first, and went against everything I believed to be true about fitness, but the results speak for themselves!! Wishing everyone success on their journeys ????

Hello,
I think you look amazing and your surgeon definitely did a wonderful job. If you dont mind me asking how much did you pay for a LBL? I saw a surgeon in Toronto and its 26000 dollars.

Hi there.. it was approximately 14,000. Dr. Neinstein is amazing, he is originally from a Toronto, and had a practice there, before finally coming to New York full time. He is a truly remarkable surgeon!

Keep looking good !

I also wanted to mention that your scars healed so beautiful and I cant even notice them.
You look great!

Thanks!! Yes, I really had minimal scarring, I think it is partially an amazing surgeon, part scar treatment, and part luck! I used Mepitac silicone tape while I was healing, as well as masssging with a silicone based cream..,

Happy Holidays!!!
With the New Year rapidly approaching, I just wanted to give a quick update and take this opportunity to give thanks for all the positive and amazing things that have happened since my life changing surgery.. I have dedicated this past year to getting into the best shape possible, just because I am approaching 50, I plan on fighting it every step of the way!! I started working with a personal trainer 4 days a week , and reducing my cardio and adding heavy lifting, that did the trick for me! I look forward to 2016, and hope anyone who has just begun this journey will be encouraged, it's not always easy, but it is so worth it!

You look amazing! I'm 5 months post op and so excited about my results. I can't wait to get to my 1 year. My scars are still visible but are slowly lightening up!

Thank you, in the beginning the improvement seems to come in baby steps, as you get closer to the year mark, you will see great improvement , I am at 3 years and I don't notice the scars at all! Congratulations on your surgery

I love your results! And thanks for posting what your scars look so far down the line!! You can hardly see them! I am 9 weeks out from my abdomnioplasty w/butt lift, mastopexy and brachioplasty and loved seeing your results! I was worried about the scar under the bottom of my breast that extends up under my to my side, they were the only scars that surprised me! I found a bikini top to cover them but loved see that there is hope that they will fade!!

Thanks a million! I just like to show folks that things really do change and improve overvtime, you look wonderful, and this recovery period will be a very distant memory very soon. You will become so accustomed to your new body, you will forget what it was like prior to surgery...and the scars won't even be a thought!

Actually I just got full leg lipo yesterday to deal with some unruly fat deposits that just wouldn't go away. Turns out they were Lipedema fat cells, so I went to the wonderful Dr. Fisher in San Antonio and he removed 7 liters from my legs!!! Pretty sore today, but feeling great knowing what is in store for me!!! And you continue to get better daily! So happy for you!

Holy Cow! That's amazing!!!! I am so happy for you... I know you are going to be thrilled with your results.

It's amazing how well you healed.... and I am fascinated by the vertical part of your LBL. You are right it is unusual, and I appreciate a doctor who can think outside the box. It seemed to be exactly the right approach for you. That's what makes an outcome perfect - it was the right procedure for that person's body type and natural construction.
BTW, you do *not* need a lift, and won't for another 10 years or so. All that running has you looking really tight already. So fillers are the way to go, they will keep you from getting that "runner's skeleton head" look (too gaunt). Just my opinion, you look fabulous, have a wonderful New Year!

Thank you, I was fortunate indeed to have found a PS who was able to assess the "skin" situation and propose a fantastic solution! It's not for everyone, but I'm my case it was exactly what I needed!
I really am a big fan of fillers, but what I found is as I decreased my running, and increased my lifting, my fillers have lasted much longer, so for the immediate future, I'll stick with filler! Thanks again for your kind comments, have an awesome New Year!

Thanks for the tip! I lift, and have been thinking about Voluma (Volumna?) as a sort of stop gap until I feel ready for surgery. I am 10 years older than you, btw... but we have a lot in common. :-)

What a TRULY wonderful journey you've had. You have made the best of your transformation...you deserve to be proud. Thank you so much for giving us another update. You are the example to follow...for all of us. I've just finished what I be
I've my last surgery (Brachioplasty and some contouring Lipo). Now I'm gonna do what you did this last year...workout even more and get my weight where I want..about 10 more pounds to go, so I'm close. It's exciting. Again, thanks for being such a beautiful role model.
Hugs :-DSuzy
