WORTH IT$6,800
Its been 6 months! My tummy is still numb. I can feel just a tiny bit in my nipple area. Mostly when its tugged on. Anyway I feel great. I'm still very happy that I got the surgery done. My measurements haven't really changed. I do have some bumps on my scar. I've read that that's normal and that eventually go away. I'm just trying to use scar gel more often and massage.

Officially one month post op yesterday. I'm feeling pretty good. I was able to take my first real bath which was nice. Dr said I had to wait till all of the incisions were completely closed. I'm in 28 skinny jeans. I was doing a happy dance! My boobs are still the same size. One thing that sucks is that the nipples don't have any sensation. My lower back and stomach feel numb still but I read that it could be like that for months and months. I walked to my child's school and back and it took me close to 40 mins. It felt like I was wearing a corset when I got back home. I'm still swollen. All in all I'm still really happy and it was so worth it. I'll update with some scar pics later.

Happy to hear you are good. Don't worry about the sensation in the boobs that's natural it took about 3 months to gain mine back!!

Congrats! It looks great! I am one week postop tomorrow and I have no nipple sensation either---what is your PS saying about that? I have no sensation in my abd or lower back either and I HATE the way it feels. Well, good luck on your recovery journey!

I'm good! Thanks for asking. I've been trying to add more activity. I washed my three dogs the other day. They hate getting wet. So just imagine me trying to pull 100+ lb dog or run after the other two. Geez they wear me out! I wonder if I could do situps?

I think you have to wait 6 weeks well thats how long a friend of mine waited and that was to do light cardio. How did your BBL come out. I am suppose to be seeing Cardenas and I have heard people are not happy with their BBL but love their TT. I am thinking of switching docs even though I know I need a TT my stomach is flat but I have lots of loose skin.

Wrknonit. If tt is your #1 priority I say see Cardenas. HOWEVER youre roghr alot are dissatisfied wirh her bbl but love her tt

Yes I figure I better take care of my Tummy first and I don't want to have to worry about my butt...if I am not happy with my backside I will go for round 2 with Pantoja or Campos...I just worry because I don't have a lot of fat just loose skin!!

I am 2 weeks 1 day post op. I'm feeling really good. I'm at home and my kids are keeping me busy. They started school on Wednesday. I've been picking them up from school. I've also done the deed already! Didn't hurt at all. I also had to pick up my 19 month old a few times already. I've had to clean and cook and I've been grocery shopping. I'm sleeping semi flat too. I just try not to overdo it. Or if I get tired, I try to slow down. I measured myself.
Breast: 32 DD!! WOOOOHOOOO!
Waist: 29 in I still have a lot of swelling; especially on my back.
Hip: 38.. no change at all there. I'm not sure if it takes a while to see the results. Dr Pantoja puts the fat under the muscle. I have been sitting on it all this time. He may not have put enough fat.. I dunno.
I'm really happy though. I'm blessed to have made it through such an extreme amount of surgery. I really feel like eating healthy and taking all my pre-op and post-op vitamins have helped me recover so quickly.

hiya smiley~ Congrats on the weight loss! I recently lost 40 lbs and feel totally amazing!!! Eating healthy along with frequent excerise takes a lot of hard work but it's certainly worth it to feel pretty again. You look nice.... HUGE difference between the before and after pictures! You have a lovely hourglass figure now :))
