4 Weeks post-op from FTT and lipo in Mexico

[alice 0]

I went back down to Mexico last weekend because I thought I had some Water in my belly, it did go down like Dr. C said it would. He removed my stitches and told me that I was healing nicely and he was pleased with my results. He told me that I wold not see the full benefit for 3-4 months and that I would go down a size or two. We will see.

My pre-op clothing is loose on me and I am still in my garment although today I wore a pair of fleexies out instead. Dr. C said I could get out of the garment in the day at 4 weeks and to wear it at night for three months.

I am feeling pretty good. I drive, go shopping, work and went back to the gym today. I am starting out very slow, like I am a beginner.

I can't begin to tell you how glad I am at having this proceedure done. This is by far the best gift that I could have given myself. I stopped off at Nordstoms and bought some little tiny lacy panties that go up your butt in the back. I could NOT believe how good they looked on me. I just stand in front of the mirror and say, "Damn girl, you look sooooo good"! He he he he

My husband can't keep his hands off me and I am loving it. I feel so sexy for the first time in years. My belly looks like I am 18yo again. I will try and get some photos up soon.

The pain was worse than I expected, but it passed and that is what drugs are for...right?

I am planning on going back down for a BL in September. I am a nice 36DD but after breast-feeding six, yes six kids, well, they are going south shall I say?

I am in a loose size 12. I am 5'7 1/2 40-31-41 not too shabby for 49yo

Alice, Is that Dr. Cardenas? I am looking into TT and lift also. I have 40 lbs to go but I am already trying to plan ahead. I had my lapband done in Monterrey with Dr. Sanchez and was planning on going back when it comes time for PS. I am glad you are so happy with the results! I want a nice flat belly again too!!!

please post pictures i am thinking of going to Dr. Cardenas for a tt when time is right. Never thought of Mexico until i got on here and know the cost would just be to much here so i might try Mexico if decide to have ps. It is so nice to get all the information you can get about the Dr. in Mexico.
