Plastic surgery



Recommended Posts

Hello,

I am just wondering if any of my Boston bandsters have looked into plastic surgery yet? I really want my arms done. Well, I want everything done but I will never be able to afford it. Does anyone have any doctor reccomondations?

Any help is appreciated!

Baby Phat, we have the same doctor. When it comes times that i neeed/ want plastic surgery I plan on asking Dr. Vernon on who she considers the best, i figure that she will have experience from other patients. On a side note is she always running late when you see her. For my first appointment i waited about two hrs.

I have been seeing Dr. Vernon for over a year now. She is ALWAYS running late. I make my appointments in the am expecting to wait for a good hour. I love her though. She is the nicest doctor I have ment to date. She has been so good. I actually have an appt with her this coming Friday. I will ask her about PS then. Thanks!

Hello-

I see you both have Dr. Vernon. I did too... your right,

followup on 1/19 and I got an early morning appt. so I

hopefully won't be there all day. ;)

There are some of us getting together next saturday to meet for lunch/dinner. Were you both thinking of going? It will be 3:00pm at

Joe's Bar & Grill in the Braintree Mall. It should be fun.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
