Right where do I start, it has been a long journey...

Right where do I start, it has been a long journey for years and I haven't even started this one as well. As a teenager I was always battling with my weight I end up becoming 116 kg at 26 so it was the first time I took the major decision and go through a gastric band operation in order to limit my food intake and lose weight. That was about 10 years ago. It did work. From 116kg I've dropped to 85kg and stayed there for the last 10 years. My height is 1.76m which means I am still a bit overweight but not that bad. With the gym I wasn't too crazy on and off really. Until December 2014 when I took the big decision to start intensive gym, personal training, waking up 6am to go to the gym and start weight training. Twice a week to start with, then 3,4 and now at least 5-6 times a week. I saw my body change a lot, my fat percentage levels dropped from 28% to now around 16%. With a lot of hard work, money invested in personal training and clean food diet.
After a full year and a lot of change I took the important decision to remove my gastric band. I am not the person I was 10 years ago and my food habits have changed drastically. So two months ago I have successfully removed the band.
After a lot of consideration, research and even discussing it with my personal trainer I have now decided to do liposuction and get rid off all that stubborn fat remaining in my body. That doesn't mean I will stop working out, on the contrary, I will continue intense work out but at least then the results can show even more.
I live in the UK where plastic surgery is overrated and crazy expensive. You go to these clinics and they see you as another fat wallet, giving you a crazy price and get operated not by an English doctor but by an Arabic, Indian etc. So I don't understand what's the whole fuzz about doing the lipo op relations in the uk and pay a fortune.
Throughout my research two countries came up as the obvious options Turkey and Poland. In Turkey there is not as much experience and seems that they are still kind of experimenting procedures and treatments on patients bodies, there are two-three plastic surgeons but after doing a thorough research didn't feel very comfortable as some of their treatments and customer service seemed a bit backwards.
So I have approached a clinic in Poland called Clinic For You. I've read about the Nutational Infrasonic Liposculpture and Dr. Piotr Rataj. I read some good reviews and the information and customer service so far has been fantastic. Most importantly for me Dr. Piotr sounded that he understood my needs and also had a very understanding and professional approach. Cost more than half cheaper than if I would do this in the UK. So my communication with Anna the Patients coordinator has been great, managed to book an operation in less than 10 days so in less than a week I will have my 6 pack, chest, flanks, lower back done. I am very excited about this as I would hopefully see all the muscles beneath my fat show...
I will keep this diary going with pictures too as I have found the information in this forum so very useful and helped me so much to take this very important decision. I hope I will see the result that I am looking for. I have app loaded some pictures of me starting the gym about a year ago and some recent ones.

Thanks for starting a review and for adding your before pics. How long will you stay in Poland?

Hi Jill. No problem at all. This forum was an enormous help for me to make the right decision and also provides important information from other people regarding the pre and post operation process etc. I will stay in Poland for a week. I took this time off so I will be free to see the surgeon after the operation and also leave enough time in case of any unwanted results which I don't think there will be as I normally heal very well and fast. so extremely excited and positive cant wait to get there :)

I'm so glad to hear the site has been helpful to you. I'm glad you will have some time to recuperate in Poland, that will be nice!

5 days till the BIG DAY... Excitement starts building up!!!

Only 4 days left till my trip in Poland and 5 days until I have the operation. I was sceptical initially to have this one compare to Vaser HD but most of the surgeons I spoke to I came to the conclusion that is down mostly to the surgeons skills and less to the equipment so I am really looking forward to see the results. They did send me pictures of other patients who didn't seem they were working out at all and the results looked awesome. Did my final personal Wight training in the gym today and god it was hard and intense but I am pleased that hopefully all that effort will hopefully soon show...
Went shopping and bought all the necessary products to assist with my post operation recovery, I found a great list here in the forum :)
Anna from Prestige Clinic was great so we have booked a nice flat in the centre of Wroclaw Poland for a week and arranged all my transport from the airport to the hospital etc.. So far the experience has been very smooth.. I can't wait to get it done, I am emotionally ready..
I also bought an expensive ultrasound massage gadget to help me with my self massages separate to the Lemphatic ones I will do with a professional.
I will miss the gym but I see how I feel during my recovery, most of the people here are out for a month, I will ask the doctor and see how my body feels.. Compression garments are a key support tool in all the reviews so I hope I get a decent one. Sleeping with it is probably going to be an issue but I guess I will get used to it. I believe that I heal and recover relatively quickly.. During another recent operation I had stitches and was in the gym in two weeks and on the third and fourth managed to train with my trainer.. Dedication and commitment to this has become a huge part of my life so I intend to continue working hard. I am 38 years old so is not as easy as it sounds it takes a lot of me to get half of the workout result a 25 year old would get with the same training.
I've researched the doctor and most were great reviews so fingers crossed.
Writing all these helps, is like keeping a diary but also sharing and help other members here..
