I thought I was done...going back for more 3/13/15

After getting a LapBand in 11/2011, losing 100 pounds, a TT w/MR & BR/BL in 12/2013 and thigh lift and BA in 03/2014, I thought I was DONE with my transformation. Well, after 3 years of hard work in the gym, my butt just won't go away! I have a roll on my upper butt/lower back similar to what I had on my tummy prior to my TT. My runs into the back of my thighs and 1000s of squats still haven't gotten rid of all the extra skin and lumps. My doc says my skin has great elasticity for stretching, but not so much for shrinking back. Prior to my TT I had to buy pants 2 sizes too big to fit the roll of extra skin I had & now I'm having to buy a bigger size bcuz of the roll on my backside! UGH!
After all those years of eating my way to 250 pounds I destroyed my body and NO amount of hard work in the gym can make my skin shrink back to fit my new healthy lifestyle.
I have decided to get a posterior lower body lift and remove the extra skin. My doc, Dr. Zarrabi is a true artist and I cannot wait to see his transformation results this time!
15 DAYS AND COUNTING...canNOT come soon enough!

28 days PO…nervous & excited for my beach debut tomorrow!

I am 28 days postop and feeling good. The only discomfort I have, and really the only pain I’ve ever had is getting into and out of my truck & sitting down. Once I sit down or get into my truck, I’m fine. The ends of my incisions on my butt cheeks are right where my butt bones are when I sit, so that’s why it’s so uncomfortable. I do get a shooting pain in my left breast from time to time with use of my left arm.

Overall, I am VERY happy with my thighs now & I cannot wait to tone them up more. I still have limited range of motion of my legs due to tightness & soreness at the incision sites, but other than that NO problems & I’m back to my normal activities (with the exception of exercising).

Tomorrow we are going to the beach for my daughters bday & I'm nervous! I bought a bikini top & will be wearing shorts, since my thigh lift incisions aren't completely healed. I'm nervous to walk around in a bikini top….I haven't worn a bikini since I was a teenager!! I am happy and confident with my results, but I feel like I'm going to be walking around in my bra! I'm excited to finally be confident again with the way my body looks, but I'm hoping it won't be too awkward of a feeling to be walking around in just a bikini top….actually showing my tummy and a little boobs! Oh wow! I just thought…the glare of my WHITE tummy that hasn't seen sunlight in 20 years just might blind people!! Uh oh!

I can't thank my doctor enough! He is truly amazing!

11 days postop update & medial thigh lift TMI photos

11 days postop-Here's what medial thigh lift incisions look like. Kinda hard to be tasteful when there's no way to avoid photographing your vagina....sorry! It's not as painful as it looks. The lipo that was done on the thighs is more painful than the incisions. I'm pretty much back to my normal routine (except the gym) and by the end of the day I'm sore, but no pain.
Boobs are still boxy & hard. How long does it take for them to soften & drop? They only hurt at night while I'm trying to sleep & in the morning...and they ITCH!! I hope they are still swollen & won't stay this big, I didn't want big [RS bleep] star bonkers!
I am happy happy happy with results of both!!

Dr. Zarrabi was recommended by my lapband doctors, whom I trust completely & I was not disappointed. He is wonderful. He spent an super long time with me at my consult answering my numerous questions and making me feel comfortable. I can't say enough good things about him, he is wonderful. I am happy with the results and he has gone above and beyond to make sure I'm taken care of and happy.
