5'10, 205lbs at time of surgery - TT & MR with lipo & mons lift

ORIGINAL POST

TT & MR with Lipo and Mons Lift

Our actual appointment was great. He explained things well and I felt comfortable. Brief interaction the morning of surgery was also okay. He has sent me 2 text messages responding to my concerns since surgery as well but I have not seen him in person since the procedure, drains were removed by his assistant after 6 days.

Unsure about my results but I understand I need to trust the process and am doing my best to follow his instructions.

I was as my heaviest weight at the time of surgery at 205 lbs. Menopause and then breaking my ankles resulted in a 30 lbs weight gain and regardless of my efforts, my attempts at weight loss were ineffective. I decided to go ahead and get the surgery in hopes that it would also be a remedy for my chronic back pain, which will make exercise and movement easier, effectively aiding with my goal of future weight loss. At 5’10, I am very comfortable at about 165 lbs so losing 30 pounds this summer doesn’t feel out of reach at all. Currently I am 3.5 weeks post-op and have yet to weigh myself.

I will add photos soon. Thanks for reading about my journey, I will update more shortly.

Hi. Curious to know more about your journey and satisfaction with the results. My story is similar: I’m 20 lbs heavier than I would be at my baseline, which I also attribute to menopause and an ankle injury. I’m on the fence about committing to a TT/paniculectomy with DrTurner later this year, or waiting another year to see if I can get the stubborn 20 lbs off.

I lost 20 after surgery then quickly found 10 again. Menopause is hard!
My clothes fit great, I feel great - no regrets! Tomorrow isn’t promised, so do what makes you happy today!
