Over a year- hard to believe

Life seems to keep speeding on by! Its been over a year. I feel normal, my stomach no longer seems "alien" when I look at it. It is now a part of me. I am now looking forward to a BL/BA with lipo at my waist and flanks. My PS wouldn't do lipo at the same time as the TT- so I will have it done while I am under for the BL. I have yet to schedule a date, but have already had my consult.

A week ago Friday I went in to have the dog ear on my left side removed. I was surprised that he was doing it so early in my recovery as I am at about 12 weeks PO. So, on the day he was running an hour and a half late. I was also scheduled for a consult for my BL and BA. He brings me into the procedure room and quickly does a numbing, and snip snip I am done- He is answering questions about the BL and BA as he does his work.

Up until this point I have been completely happy with all of my PS work. I have not once complained to him about anything. While I was trying on different sizers he came in to talk to me. I noticed in the mirror that where he had put the stiri strips from the dog ear removal there was still a substantial "shelf" and the curve on my side still wasn't natural. He told me that I "had a shelf" on the otherside too and basically gave me the attitude of "tough sh!t".

I was a little put out at this point and wasn't really feeling like giving a down payment for another procedure with this attitude he was giving me. I left their office with directions on how to "treat" the procedure site- but NO FOLLOW UP- Nothing... basically thank you for your money- we are now done.

So now its a week later, the stiri strips have fallen off.. and guess what? I still have a dog ear- oh, its further back now, but that side still looks unnatural. That side has looked unnatural from the day I got out of surgery, but I wasn't worried because I was confident that my surgeon would fix the issue and it would end up looking like the other side. It doesn't . Not even close. Now I am left feeling like some how I had too high of expectations to assume that the curves on my side would look natural. I was able to live with the high scar he left me with because I understood how bad my stretch marks were, but I am very unhappy with how he blended the procedure into my sides... My PS's office doesn't believe in doing Lipo during a TT, and now I am feeling like i will have to pay another PS to fix the Dog ear and lipo my flanks in order for me to be happy with the results. Maybe I am just being too picky??

Do you guys notice a change in your weight for the next couple of days after working out? After my surgery my weight stayed even and steady. Now that I am working out my weight seems to keep spiking upward for a couple days after a hard work out..... OR.. am I putting on weight?? :(
