So I flew on over to Oahu this morning for my 2nd Plastic Surgery consultation with Dr. Marco Rizzo. I put down on my patient info sheet that I was interested in a lift with augmentation and a tummy tuck. He looks at my info and flat out says he doesn't do boob lifts. DANG! I just learned today that plastic surgeons don't do EVERYTHING. I have a list in my head of different surgeries as I've been researching since before WLS and i just automatically thought that ALL docs do ALL procedures. Just some docs do it better than others, you know? He said he could look at my tummy and quote me a price but I smiled, shook his hand and thanked him for taking the time to see me. In just told him that I would wanted to go to a surgeon who would be able to take care of me from head to toe. UGGGGHHHH! Plane rides and a car rental, cash out the door. But I bought 3 pairs of shoes today as Oahu has the biggest outdoor shopping mall in the world(in my eyes anyways). Ala Moana Shopping Center, wooooohooooo!

To all of you who are post op, shoes fit way way way better after losing a bunch-o-weight!!! I find myself buying alot more cute shoes with heels. They fit perfect and my feet don't hurt! Pre-surgery, I used to buy alot of jewelry as I couldn't spend so much cash on clothes cause nothing ever fit right. I even tried on 2 pairs of jeans today and didn't buy them as I DIDN'T HAVE TO!! Meaning, they were size 4's but one pair was a little too short and the other were super cute but the pockets on my butt looked like they were too low. Pre-surgery I would buy jeans and settle for whatever would actually button, zip and not drag on the ground. Now I can be picky cause there are soooooooo many more choices in smaller sizes. Love it!!!!

3rd PS consultation will be on 2/8...................i'll update more after that one.
