Whoohoo! Just returned from Mazaltlan and ready to upload some pics. I left on this trip exactly at 4 months to the day from my TT and Lipo. Man, am I happy with my results. See for yourself......I need to tighten up a few places yet but am very close to a good figure for a 60 year old grandma. I seem just a bit top heavy to myself, but that is a matter of opinion, I am told. (Mainly my boyfriend likes my boobs the way they are)
Anyway, I feel like my doctor did an amazing job on me (too bad I didn't post any before pics) and I count this as $$ well spent. Even all the misery I went thru seems small for these results. Thank you Dr Sattler!

Well, I am at 12 weeks and feel like this journey has been a success. My scar is healing nicely and all the troubles post-op have faded into dim memory. I love my flat abdomen and being able to tuck my shirts in again! I feel better and look better, so I guess I am ready to go into my old age next week, when I turn 60.
Good luck all!

Today is my 6 week mark from my Abdominoplasty and extended lipo. I have to say that today has been grand.
First, I weighed myself this morning and I am continuing to lose......from 154 to 136! Two inches is gone from my waist and 1 inch from my hips. And today I got into my big girl slacks!
Also today was the first day I awoke with some of my old energy. My incision is uncovered now and still pink and raised somewhat, but no longer open anywhere nor uncomfortable. Pain is in the past now.
So I am reporting to anyone looking into this procedure: YES, it was worth it. I feel very good about this now. HOWEVER, I must caution you that this is not an easy recovery. I needed 6 full weeks to feel myself again. My recovery has been very hard at times, with a few setbacks and a lot of tears of frustration. It may go better for others, but be prepared for the worst, especially if you are almost 60 years old, like myself.
Still, I would do it again to have my body back. (Just eternally grateful that this is 'once and done' cuz I am not too sure that I would, knowing what I know now!)
Anything is bearable when it is behind you! Now for the fun part......shopping!
I will insert a last picture maybe this weekend
(PS My continued weight loss may be due to a factor I read about in Kevin Trudeau's book.....a mass of abdominal fat can slow your metabolism greatly. When that's removed, your body revs up a bit and begins to equalize the other fat deposits distributed around the rest of the body. Whatever, it seems to be a working theory for me because I am not seriously dieting, just eating healthy. I need to investigate this further.)

I felt the professionalism and experience of the Clinic to be the best. I really didn't shop around much, just got a vision of what could be done from Dr S. and had to go research for a few weeks before booking. I had some complications and some considerable pain which could have happened anywhere; my only con is that I suspect my anesthesiologist was a bit inexperienced.
