I will either be getting information on  an extended neck lift (~6k) or total face lift (~8k) during my next follow up appt in Sept.   The saggy turkey neck makes me look old. I will most likely stay with the same dr. I may get a consult & estimate from 1 other that was recommended too. Good luck. Let me know what info you get.  It will help me withy decision.
Thanks

 I am looking at some facial plastic surgery, which I believe will be a simpler recovery. I have a lot of skin on the neck area and - oddly - around my eyelids because of the fat deposits that had settled there in past days.

The tummy tuck would be nice....but I am just not "there" for a lengthy recovery. I mostly look ok with clothes on, so that will do it for me...for now!

So vacation is over, all in all, I ate the way I need to in order to continue successing.  So I'm back to posting daily what's going on my plate to the best of my ability, coming back to correct what was not in my plan or, as in some cases, a dinner/lunch out with a friend. . . 

B:  Eggbeater, onions, peppers and an ouce of pepper jack cheese omlet

S:  Peach, blueberries, cherries

L:  Romaine lettuce, tomato, red onion, some blue cheese crumbles, bacon bits, pecans with Ken's free raspberry dressing

S:  l/f popcorn, slim bear bar

D:  Pineapple fried rice (brown rice), with egg, chicken and shrimp in it, approximately 3/4 cup

S:  Fruit salad and piece of cheese

Multi vitamins, calcium supplements, b-1 and lots of water too!

How about you?  What's your plan for successing!

Hello Maura,

So happy to see your post, I think we all step back at some point, besides, life is full of good living when you've lost a person, glad you continue to do well and I've little doubt you will stay on top of things, as last time I saw you, you certainly looked fabulous.

Best wishes on your continued "successing"

 Last year I had the corset trunkplasty and medial thigh plasty. Then a week later I had emergency laparoscopic surgery to save my life. I had an internal hernia and a bleeding ulcer in the top of my pouch with a pulsating arterial mass behind it. Well the emergency surgery compromised some of the plastics. So- this year I had a reverse fleur-de-lis to correct the stretched skin issue. They removed a piece about the size of a landscape piece of paper to make it all a-ok. I now have a fantastic saggy skin free flat abdomen.  I Never in a million years thought I would have one of those. I can't wait to be all healed up. Getting rid of the extra skin was so worth it. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Any other questions, just ask. That is what this board is all about. Is asking questions and supporting each other on this fantastic journey for the rest of our lives to keep us on the straight & narrow.
