    How are Dr Tony Keirths patients from wa

    Wow seems everyone doing great, I can't believe I have gone from a size 20/22 down to size 8 and maintained for 6 months. Keep in touch all. Glad to here someone has had for 6 years no problems, are you going to get Tony to do some plastics on you.
  5. I am now down to mostly size 10 but some 8 ,and some 12, but 98 percent is 8 - 10,mostly in 10. Going through my clothes shall i hand on the the size 12's or get rid of so can never never put the weight back on?? i am concerned if put on any medication eg the mirena iud- this contains slow release hormones, and when i was on the pill i put on weight on thighs, and cellulite worsened, and my bust cup swells,or shall i just keep some bras? i have dropped a few sizes am 80lbs down.NEVER WANT TO BE FAT AGAIN,although may decide on boob job at some stage.:tongue_smilie:
  6. Can anyone tell me what causes a flipped port, and also what causes a slipped port, what is the difference, my port moves about 2 inches to different place, possible slip or fliP? going to ask my doc, but anyone know? i am concerned re moving port.Thanx.

    Ask Dr. Schulman...

    I had two plastic sugeon , I spoke to one said he would do legs would have a scar up towards the top inner thigh and could fix most of the leg but the top bit, said that was one op. The second op would be arms having a scar so could not be seen because my arms so skinny and like the legs would have to work hard to make even. The third op he said would be v shaped scar for my tummy. They have to be three seperate ops. He does not do busts, said would definately need implants. He said around the bottom would be too hard to do. The second surgeon was alot more expensive he said the bust needed to be done in two separate operations One a reduction of bust which would need to move my nipple circle scar around that, and under bust, then 6 months later an implant. He said could not do legs or bottom. The stomache he said would be a scar across hip bone. The arms a long scar under arms. He said could do the stomache and bust at one time but the arms need to be done separately. Both doctors said about two weeks recovery time. Alot of expense. But I was wondering can it be possible that just an implant could be put in with just a scar under bust and not having to move the nipples i am certain I met someone ages ago who use to be skinny and had this done. I am five foot 3 , now weigh 110 lbs take a size 10d bra but my bust all empty on top.

    September 17th bandsters!!!!

    Hope you all do as well as I have done i had my op on the 18 sep 2007 and am down to what i think is virtually my ideal goal - down 88lbs. In one year, yep it can be done, so go slower and some go faster, but in the long run we all get there.

    This is CRAP!

    And even if she knows you had appt that day say you were so sick but couldnt possibly cancel and reschedule again because it is important for you, and you know this because you discussed with your doctor, use your immagination or say the receptionist was not impressed but you told her you will definately go even though you were that sick ....... or well just use your logical immagination.as i say thats what i do, my thoughts, but maybe u need to discuss with a friend or a few friends and see what they say.

    This is CRAP!

    Addicted to op shopping now and you?

    Yeah i did not realise how much i cross my legs now, here in western australia no clothes swap places drats, but the op shops are great, unless get sidetracked in the normal shopping centres, the asian stores - which i fit into their clothes now have lovely unusual bits too. I was going to put on dark red polish but thought would go with the latest craze here black, so black feet - toes i should say and fingernails. Girls oh and guys by the time we are done we will all be model material - just picture that, have watched lots of transformations on the laurie povich show ------ we are going to be them --------stay focused on that.:smile2:
