My Consult!

Yesterday was the BIG DAY.... the consult with the doc whose putting an end to Jabba. Well, okay. He tried to up sell me a lapband surgery. He asked if my insurance would cover it. I said "Oh yeah! After I gain ANOTHER 20 POUNDS!" Urgh!!!!

I guess he realized that "lapband" was not going to happen. He asked me why I wanted the surgery and I told him that it was the right time to do it. No more kids, flexibility to heal, hated Jabba for over 20 yrs and it bothers and at times hurts. So he agreed with the procedure!

The doc showed me before and after photos of people who were overweight and agreed to do the tummy tuck, like I am. I was hoping to see someone built like me - big butt, big boobs and a flabby belly. I saw the flabby bellies but no big rear so there wasn't really a good comparison to go by. I later spoke to his assistant about it. She said that she's hopeful that I will be more than satisfied with the results because of my shape. I guess I just might look like a plus size "Iris Chacon" (for those who don't know who I'm talking about - if not, Google her, she's hot!) hee hee. My hubby is excited for me. Yeah, I bet he can't wait until after the healing period so he can take full advantage of the results. LOL!!!

End Of Jabba Day is on September 29th. I notified one of my gigs and now between this week and next week the rest will be notified. I can't believe it's finally happening. I will need to take blood work and another consult before going - that will be on September 7th. I guess I'll try (no promises) that I'll drop a couple of pounds to satisfy the doc before surgery. Or if not, he's just going to have to deal with my big butt.

Bye for now but I'll get back once I go to my pre-op consult. Take care all and enjoy the weekend!
