Glad to hear you're doing well Lori. I wish my ass ended up high and firm after my plastics! I look at it and think - that might be the thing I need to save up for next!

When they did the circumfrential - how did they do it? I've heard Canadian dr's do it differently than in the US and it includes a thigh lift? Curious....

And waiting for pics!!

Keep up your food with those pain killers ok? The weight can really slide fast after plastics and put you in a dangerous place very quickly. I drank 2 protein shakes a day for a few weeks because I had trouble getting food in...

Erica it's one big incicion all the way around, My ass is lifted and my saddlebags are gone as well. really smoothes everything out. There is still some drapping between the legs of course but it was helped as well. Gotta say I'm amazed, everything is so hard and smooth. Gonna get pics up soon. I am finding food hard but focusing totally on protein and adding a cpl shakes as well,

Hi Lori, hang in there! I had a LBL a year and a half ago, and the first few weeks are tough, but you'll love the results! I found sleeping difficult because of the incision all the way around, there really isn't a good way to lay. Take it easy and heal well!

Hi Lori!

Congrats! How much did it set you back? I'm feeding my plastics fund these days as it becomes very clear for me - still a long way out - that I will need it when I get there.

Wishing you a very speedy recovery and effective pain meds!
