Brazilian abdominoplasty with lipoplasty.

ORIGINAL POST

Brazilian Abdominoplasty with Lipoplasty.

Genesis 44
WORTH IT$12,500
Five years, five stone and three c sections.
The journey began .
After a few consultations and feeling deflated and not very confidant , I decided to give it one last try .
Mr William Van Niekerk ,
This consultation was different then before he spent time understanding what I wanted,to achieve ,and let me no what would be realistic.
With 13lb to go, he said you have come so far, only a short way to go now .
This time I left with what he said in mind.
What more could I do to boost my weight loss .?
Intermittent fasting!
After eating healthy for years now what more could I do ?
Spending the days after doing more research on intermittent fasting , I decided to give it a go , and a couple of months later I’m below target and going to my pre op next Tuesday .
So if you trying to lose weight for this procedure don’t give up,.
intermittent fasting works, you will feel great, with so much more energy. Also it’s easy to maintain .

New surgery date 4th jan

Genesis 44
After my last surgery was canceled , due to family history questions i now have a new date . with a week to go and waiting so long for this roll on next week !
My family and freinds say im not myself , so looking forward to getting it done now ,as the more waight i lose the more skin I develop which makes me feel down, cant wait to feel normal again.
I would say for anybody strugling with waight, intermittent fasting has been great, and such a good tool for maintaining a healthy waight .
More before and after pics to follow , i will be posting after my surgery.
I have defently decided against hving a belly button .
Thank you for all your comments .

Funny I literally am looking into IF currently. It seems super promising!

It is very good but if u have tea make sure you don’t have milk in it in fasting hours and milk still effects the digestive system , so for me it works better if I have black tea when on If when I am in my eating window I have milk in my tea .
