I haven’t experienced the “swell hell” that I hear people talk about. I have that little crease too! I like it! I pretend it's abs!

Are you both having the same procedures? Why did you choose to go to Miami for your PS? How did the cost compare to staying local. I think a TT and bigger implants are in my future. My hubby isn't thrilled but I reminded him that before we got married I told him I had no intentions of aging gracefully! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristieshannon 1,669 Posted January 27, 2021 I had local consults and wasn’t thrilled with any of their results. Also, the cost was insane. My quotes in Seattle ranged from $30,000-$40,000. I paid $16,100 in Miami so even with travel costs I came out way ahead. I found a great doc there that I loved, and had lots of experience working with weight loss patients. 2 GreenTealael and ChubRub reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

May I ask who your surgeon is? 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristieshannon 1,669 Posted January 28, 2021 Sure, I went to Dr. Alex Earle. 2 FatboySkin and GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristieshannon 1,669 Posted February 2, 2021 Weird side effect of my arm lift that I’ve noticed over the last couple days. I had enormous bat wings, which provided great padding to my arms. The last couple of nights, while laying in bed, I’ve noticed discomfort when my inner elbows and laying against the bed for too long. Much like my bony knees that now need a pillow between them I now need a pillow under my now bony elbows for comfort! 1 3 WishMeSmaller, CapK, GreenTealael and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristieshannon 1,669 Posted February 6, 2021 23 days post op today. Just did my first 3.5 mile walk post op and felt great! Also tried on a bikini I bought from Shein that arrived today. The cups are teeny tiny-one errant move and I’d be in a nip slip situation! This’ll be going back, but it’s fun to see my 51 year old boobs looking like 21 year old boobs :) 4 1 Lynnlovesthebeach, JMJames92, Kris77 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kristieshannon 1,669 Posted March 1, 2021 Six weeks post op. I’m heading to Phoenix next month and need some warm weather clothes. Never thought I’d be wearing a sleeveless dress! I found this today in Portland, was stunned that I fit in a size small. I’m feeling so good, and am so very glad I had this surgery! 3 ms.sss, Kris77 and GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristieshannon 1,669 Posted March 1, 2021 And vacation dress #2. I REALLY never thought I’d feel comfortable in a strapless dress! This was from another cute little boutique in Portland, also a small which just blows my mind. 3 Kris77, ms.sss and GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This was from another cute little boutique in Portland, also a small which just blows my mind. my honest first thought you look stunning and the green is gorgeous. I am not much into clothes or being fancy but I have been working on wearing things I have not since I was a kid pretty much. Like short shorts instead of Bermudas ... wearing shirts that are either tucked in or don't cover the butt of my bottoms and wearing more casual dresses than I wore in my lifetime (literally) I have yet to conquer the swimsuit arena. I have collected some I got cheap. I think part of it is "poolside politics" 🤣 and I know how critical the people are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
