alice 0 Posted June 30, 2006 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lianna 3 Posted June 30, 2006 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!!!

jucyc 0 Posted July 6, 2006 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
