Here I go!!!
I did it! I have researched and talked with people and have finally made the decision to get rid of my extra skin!
I have made all the travel plans and set a date to have my surgery done on October 28, 2014 with Dr. Quiroz.
I'm super excited and nervous. I am a researcher....that is good and bad for me!

SOOOO in my head!!! 34 days and counting!
Get outta your head Susan!!
That's what I keep telling myself. I am, hopelessly, obsessed with my upcoming surgeries.
In 34 days I will be going SOTB (south of the border) for my LBL, & BL with possible aug.
I am a researching nut!!! Give it to me...the good, the bad, and the ugly! I just can't seem to get enough!!
Am I the only one like this????
The only problem I have with this is that I am leaving for a wonderful, tropical vacation with my hunky hubby tomorrow!!! I can't seem to get focused on it! It is all about the surgery!
UGH......
I need to just chill and live in the moment. I know that...and working on it. Hopefully when I get on the plane things will change.
Another thing I have found is the 'awareness' I have of my body in every situation I am in. I did not realize that just about every movement I make has some sort of block or shift to hide my middle pudge. WOW..... I had no idea I worked so hard to hide the un-hideable. How exhausting!
I am 7 yrs...tomorrow!...from RNY WLS. I lost 132 lbs and have kept off 120-122. I have a whole new life in the last few years and I love every bit of it!! I am one super blessed woman and I love my life!!!
With that....I can't believe I've been avoiding being real with myself. I guess it was my way of just accepting that I had all of the extra, ugly skin after my MWL.
Hunky and I have had this agreement....Boat and Boobs by 50. I'm one year away! Hunky told me to look into getting the girls done....so I did! With all of the research I found out that I REALLY needed and wanted a LBL too!
I''m scheduled for October 28th with Dr. Quiroz at Cosmed. I'm SO excited.
With the scheduling came the permission to be 'real' with myself. I've been looking, touching, poking, prodding, pulling, giggling all of my excess skin. I had NO idea there was so much!!! WOWOWOWOWOW!!!! And knowing it will be gone soon is incredible.
I wonder how much I will blossom and change after all of this?
I'm ready....let's get this game on!
but first....Vacay with the hunky!!

Congrats on weight lost!
I'm sure you'll be on happi woman... Stay positive, motivated no nervous thoughts I just TT, abdomin, pannicule and no pain, just discomfort, thank God he has been with me all the way today is my 16 day out and I gaining my strength, and energetic back feeling awesome just very swollen but start to see results just need to be patience because everyone is different. Just start taking some multi vitamins, and vitamin c for healing and recovery. Keep us sexy and beautiful sisters of yours updated and with pictures... Asta pronto...
September 28, 2014
Oh, I hope you'll keep us updated! I want all these same procedures and am considering going down for a consultation with Dr. Quiroz for them. Do you have any idea if they finance in-house or through Care Credit? $10,000 or more is going to be a bit of a stretch.
Please let us know your final costs and see your fabulous results. Good luck!
September 28, 2014
I hope you are enjoying your vacation. You are going to be so happy with yourself once you have your surgery. To get the look you want you might need to have implants - I actually had to have mine reduced after losing 170 pounds but I had more volume than you do. Most women after major weight loss need implants rather than just a lift because it gives you a rounder and younger look. Good luck with your surgery and congratulations on your weight loss and keeping it off.

Im having my LBL with Dr. Quiroz on Sept. 29th!! See you there :0)
September 29, 2014
I'm in the airport & will be at the clinic by 3pm :0) we are gong to rock this & be just fine ass!!!!!! See you there!!! Sending best vibes to you for an awesome experience & lifechanging positive change. Butterfly from cocoon!!!

"The good, the bad, and the ugly". Read the small print regarding revisions, even if he does not do what he promises he will not do any revisions at his cost. Anywhere you go you will have to pay operating room and anesthesia. I was quite impressed with the facility and his charm. I am not pleased with his work on my body, and I contacted a staph infection at cosmed, I wound up in the hospital here at home.

Hoping all goes well....Having to pay for operating room and anesthesia, is just one of the many reasons I am having my revisions elsewhere...

He is giving a two night stay at the recovery center with certain procedures, check to see if you qualify...
October 13, 2014
Thanks AZDee, I let Suz know about this a while ago. We are both taking advantage of the 2 free nights plus 10% off the remainder of our stay.
October 14, 2014
Hi AZDee.....yes. Thank you. I got the two nights and the 10% for October! Two weeks and counting! I'm slowly collecting all the things to bring with me.
How are you?

Im 12 days post lower body lift, breast lift & Brazilian butt lift by Dr Quiroz. Im going to write details when i get home. All I can say is this is the best experience of my life, Im so thankful I chose Dr Quiorz, he is THE best & his team here at Cosmed is above and beyond gracious, skilled & helpful. I am a plastic surgery nurse myself & I will be taking home positive changes to my nursing practice from being in the care of these genuinely wonderful people. As far as Im concerned Dr Quiroz is one of the best in his field & I am coming back for an inner thigh lift this upcoming spring. As mentioned, I will be writing a blog with pictures once I return home to Canada. Take care everyone
October 13, 2014
could you not get the inner thigh lift with this lbl? I read that medial thigh lifts go well with it. I would like to get a lbl (with muscle repair of course), breast lift with augmentation, and liposuction... ideally a medial/spiral thigh lift (groin only incision) at the same time and perhaps some augmentation to my butt as I have read that they can use the flank they remove from the lbl to do that instead of transferring fat. I am considering the Dominican Republic, but may also look at Mexico now since I haven't really seen lbl reviews for the dr in the D.R.
October 14, 2014
Wowowowowow! That is awesome and helps my nerves so much. Thank you sooooo very much!
I hope you are feeling wonderful! Can't wait to read your review.
Thank you for commenting.
October 14, 2014
I probably could've done the inner thigh but it's not high on my priority list.
I'm a realist. I realize the crP I put my body through will have scars. I'm totally ok with that. Skin for scars!
Best of luck to you! Are you seeing Dr. Q?

I had the groin thigh lift as well as having the flanks added for a BBL when I had my LBL several months ago...check out my review...
October 16, 2014
That's what I had done the LBL, BBL (with the back flaps added) and the medial/spiral thigh lift...yes the recovery was really easy as it's a good combo
October 13, 2014
Only 2 more weeks for you. So excited for you!!!!
October 14, 2014
Aw....thank you Kim! Trying to stay busy. I will totally dive in at the one week mark. If I started super obsessing now, I'll be thoroughly exhausted. HAHAHAHA....
October 14, 2014
What do you mean start? I have been already. I am forcing myself to dial it back. As much as I can that is.

Congratulations on your weight loss, you look great and you've obviously worked very hard. I'll be needing this type of procedure myself, following WLS, so I'll be keeping up-to-date with your progress.
Please do be sure to keep us updated! :-)
