Update & Questions: Dr. S or others
I REALLY appreciate the feedback that I have received on this site and am so happy that there are so many women out there that are willing and able to help others along the way.
I have made up my mind and will be going with Dr. S and I just viewed my syllabus and my last class/group project is 04/27 so I am looking to leave on the 29th for Mexico...I am going to finalize everything with Dr. S. We have agreed on the BL/BA, Arm Lift, Extended Tummy Tuck with Anchor...This should be enough for me...I did meet with Dr. Chapin who is a great surgeon but financially not in my reach...I am VERY excited and looking forward to this.
My goals are to work EXTRA hard to get off my last 12 lbs (lost 8 lbs in the last 2 weeks) so I am sure these 12 lbs will come off soon...My goals are also to get caught up with work and stay on top of my school work.
QUESTIONS: I plan to take about 4-6 weeks off of work, I am a Underwriter so I am at my desk allday, or I may do 4 weeks and work from home for 4 weeks...Can people chime in and advise when they felt like themselves again.
Also how does Dr. S work with booking surgery.
Thanks Again.

Dr S did not require a deposit, but I just had to send him my flight itinerary to lock down the date we decided on.
Good luck!

I would imagine that 4-6 weeks off would be ample...especially if you have a desk job. You won't be at 100% of course, but you should feel more than ready to get back to work by then. I am just three weeks out as of yesterday, and I feel markedly better than I did just this past weekend. Everyday truly gets better.
