Topic: Tomorrow is the big day...

Tomorrow I will have LBL to remove the loose and hanging skin that is a constant reminder of the damage I did to my body previously as well as how far I've come to correct that damage and make healthier choices.

Am I nervous? Not overly. Excited? Yes, I think so. Mixed feelings really. I'm obviously not looking forward to the painful healing process but understand that's part of it.

Just cant imagine a flat stomach. The thought seems so foriegn to me. Part of me wonders if it will actually work, lol.

Anyway, its been one heck of a journey so far and I'm excited for the next chapter.

Cheers!

I would highly recommend my surgeon - Dr. Reish. He's also on the UES. Wonderful doctor, amazing aftercare, gives all patients his cell, and my results have been stellar! You can see my before/afters in my profile. I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have.

My TT with Lipo and lift with augmentation cost me $15,900 total in NYC. Not bad!

Congratulations! I don't think I've tucked in my shirt since before puberty. And I haven't worn short sleeves in at least 25 years, so I'm looking forward to the arm lift after...

I have no feeling in one nipple, and one that is overly sensitive. Otherwise, my breasts feel normal. I have a lot of numbness with my LBL.
