 Hello from NJ!!

2 weeks ago I did it!!  Extended TT with lipo  and corsetting.  Also, breast reduction with lift.  Not as bad as I thought it would be.  Self pay (as was my band).  No boobie drains - only 2 tummy drains (out after day 6!)  I have a lot of helpful hints in case you are getting ready to do the same.  I have never been happier and finally am beginning to feel like me again...........

I have no shame and all pix are here to share just by clicking on me.

I love my lap band...........

WOW! I must say I was quite taken aback with the cadid photos. LOL!  You do have no shame....that being said, you look marvelous.   I want to do it so bad, I just cant afford it.  How much did all that cost ya, if you wanna say, if not, I just say CONGRATS!

Hi Karen
Sounds like you are doing great, those drains are a pain. I want to get a breast lift sometime, after seeing your pic's It makes me want to do it more. What a big difference. Congrats and thanks for sharing.

 the boobies never hurt at all.

the tt hurt much more....especially all the muscle tightening!  I needed my electric standing recliner for the first 2 weeks and I got a raised toilet seat with arms to help also.  I used a pillow for coughing and a whistle to call for help.  1 perc with 1 advil.....every 4 hours helped a bit and I am still unable to get in a low car....get out of bed alone.....I am really still only 50% better.  The corset TIGHT rellly helps and senekot for pooping  (day5!!)  You will be beautiful........love, me
