almost 2 months post op, back to normal
I went to see my personal trainer for the first time in 2 months yesterday. I was pretty out of shape, and my lower abs are killing me today, but it felt good to be back in the gym.
Overall I am happy with my results, but of course as soon as you fix one thing, you notice everything else that needs to be fixed. I feel okay about my front, although I clearly still need to lose some weight, but now my thighs and backside look even worse! Still worth it though, and i hope to one day be able to fix those areas as well. Overall, I am really glad I did this.
3 weeks post op
I would be excited to get back to my routine, but I haven't been feeling well at all. I woke up last week really dizzy, and could hardly balance enough to walk. I went to my doctor who said it was vertigo. It is absolutely terrible and I just want it to go away. Sorry, off topic, just really not feeling well.
Going back to work today
Also posting a few before and afters, one from before I lost weight, one with excess skin, and one from this morning. Feeling pretty good right now
Provider Review
I'm afraid Dr. Tattelbaum has spoiled me for all other doctors. I came into this surgery extremely nervous and scared, having not felt supported in previous surgeries by prior surgeons. Dr. Tattelbaum and his staff absolutely went above and beyond to make sure I was prepared and comfortable. He takes the time to educate you, and prepare you for all possible outcomes. He was careful to be realistic with expectations, explaining that as a massive weight loss patient, I will never have the same elasticity as someone who hasn't been obese. He said on multiple occasions, a year from now I may love my scars or I may hate my scars, but he doesn't want me to hate my surgeon. I liked this a lot. He wanted me to know he will do the very best he can, and does not promise perfection. I respect that. He literally held my hand as I went under anestesia , and called me personally twice over the weekend. I haven't even seen the results yet, but Dr. Tattelbaum will always have a special place in my heart. I could not recommend him higher.
