Surgeon Testimonial

David C. Voellinger, MD, FACS, FASMBS
I would recommend this surgeon to anyone who wants to have this surgery. He has been a God send to me and many others. I can't possibly thank him enough for what he has done for me, he has truly given me my life back. Thank You Dr. V.

    I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers this week as you go for surgery. Try not to get frustrated with fluid and food intake those first few days. Focus on your water! I'll say a prayer for a smooth, uneventful surgery and a rapid recovery! Can't wait to welcome you to the loser's bench! We're saving you a seat and we're only a PM away when you need help or support! "Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil." ~ James Allen Hugs, Lea

    Tuesday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench!

15 months post op
posted on 11/1/08 5:27 pm
Hey, for anyone who's following my progress, sorry I haven't posted in awhile.  With my new job I don't have much free time, but i really enjoy it.  I'm goiong to post some recent pic's as soon as I get some. but I'm still losing. I thought I had almost stopped but I'm still losing 4-5 lbs a month. My dr. really doesn't want me to lose any more, but I think I could stand to lose a little more. I'm 5'5'' and weight 155 lbs, although people guess my weight to be around 120 - 130. I've lost 112 lbs and about 70 inches. I wear a size 8-9 in jeans and small-med tops. My scrubs use to be a size 2X and now I wear a small. I really would like to have a tummy tuck and a thigh lift but my dr. says to wait for at least 3 months after I've stopped losing weight, and he said I really should wait for a year after cause my skin will shrink back some and I may not need it, but I just don't see that happening. With my clothes on you can't tell, but naked you really can. I'll post again later.
