I'm calling it (me) good to go.  Started the plastics journey 8 months ago- Nov. -anchor cut TT, March-arm lift, and then July-lower face  and neck lift.  Whew.  I am amazed and in total awe of those who can do all this at once.  Wow. Knew I had to take this old body through it a little more slowly.  Thing is, with the weight loss and the plastics, I don't feel old anymore.  I can remember being 45 (relatively young) and feeling like I was an old woman.  Yah know what?  I was!  Didn't move, didn't do anything, didn't care...just went to work, ate...and ate....and then slept it off and waited for the next day KNOWING it wasn't going to be any different.  That was my life from about 40 years old till 58.  I turned 60 this June, and guess what?  I feel 40-I mean, the way a 40 year old should feel and act and do!  Sure, I like what I see in the mirror, but, I'll tell you what-  If you could see the before and after pictures of my INSIDES (my soul, mind, and spirit-not to mention the health improvements)- well, that's where it's at.  OK--some pics.  before the lower face/neck lift  and just for comparison (gack)- a "way before" pic from my before former "so called" life.  Am I perfect?  Far from it.  Am I content and happy about where I am?  You bet.  Cheering everyone on along their journey...have courage, step forward day after day with positive movement and healthy decisions- today is the day!  Bonnie

You look great!  I'm one week out from the facelift - black, blue, yellow , stitches and staples. Surprisingly little pain, just very tight. Hope I look as good as you do at three weeks out!

Thanks..keep your chin up and sleep upright as long as you can.  Will help with the swelling.  You will feel so much better when the scabbing...crusty stuff all comes off.  My ears are still tender- don't hurt, just feel weird, and some mild numbness under the chin and on side of face close to ears.  Just gets better every day; your'e going to look just (even more) lovely than you (already) are!
