  1. I use GELZONE. It also works as compression for my lower abdomen and hips to flatten out my scar from my LBL. I can wrap it all the way around and pull it tight and fasten it with the Velcro tabs. My scar I flat and blending in nicely with my skin tone. I highly recommend this product.

    Travel is not so bad either. The airlines provide wheelchair assistance. They wheel you to the gate, help you on the plane, put you back in the wheelchair when you arrive at your destination and wheel you the car. Most people think the worst before their surgery, but then realize after the surgery is over with, it really was not so bad. My entire surgery experience was great! No worries!!!! lol When your time comes for PS you will see that everything be fine :-)

    TT numbness / swelling

    I had my lower body lift 12 weeks ago now. The swelling comes and goes for me too. The numbness is still there too. I am taking St Johns Wort because it works to regenerate nerves to grow. It has helped me a lot. Healing takes time, and I still try to take it easy. You will get there, but just give yourself a little more time. Happy Healing!!

    Family Medical Leave Act That is a good question to ask, because recovery can be lengthy depending on the surgery and the amount of work being done, not mention if one should suffer complications.

    New breast in MX

    Dr Victor Gutierrez is located in Tijuana, Mexico. To be honest with you, I tried to find a PS near me, but they all seemed more concerned about the wrong things. In my search, I was not even able to speak personally to any doctor. They just would not take the time to call me back. Then I called Dr Victor Gutierrez PS office. I was able to speak to him personally. He was so caring, patient, and reassuring. WOW! I was super impressed and made a trusting connection right away - something that is super important to me. He prices were reasonable and affordable. But considering the care that I received, I would have been willing to pay a whole lot more.

  10. Hello. Congradulatons on your weight loss!!!! I am sorry, but I do not have any recommendations for you. My BCBS would not cover my plastic surgery, so I went to Dr Victor Gutierrez in Tijuana, Mexico. He was GREAT! I wish I could be more helpful, but I always think a person should have a Plan B just in case Plan A does not work out???????? I hope things work out for you.

    Yes I am curious too. How are you? Last night I was filing my nails, and my arms was shaking, wiggling and giggling so bad, I was horrified. At this point I do not even care about the scar any more. Take care, Sweetpee

    30 day, 100% RAW FOOD challenge

    I remember not being able to hold no more than 3 tablespoon of liquids at a time. I did not want to become nutrient deficient, so I juiced apples, pears and carrots or cantaloup. Later I added green veggies. I did not mix the fruit and veggies until I knew my tiny tummy could handle it. I took a little time, but I did not become nutrient deficent according to my bloodwork results. This may not be safe for everyone, but it worked for me. Hope this helps :-)

    30 day, 100% RAW FOOD challenge

    Ha ha ha, I know what you mean. My kids can eat a whole container of Pringles that Grandpa buys them, but they will only eat a small amount of grapes or cherries. Yes they are expensive, but my food bill is low because i refuse to buy anything else in the store. I just want my kids to learn how to eat healthy, and not have to have surgery to cut out half their stomach. Please do not get me wrong, I really love my tiny tummy, but if I can pass down good healthy eating habits to my kids . . . Which is not easy, They may mot have to go through the misery of being overweight, and the health issues that come along with it. Sometimes it seem I am fighting a losing battle. I wish there was a magic pill . . .
