Sort-of OT: Getting plastic surgery

I'm really excited -

I've scheduled my plastic surgery for the beginning of June.  Full lower-body lift (LBL) with mild gynecomastia removal.  Going to be such a &#^@* to heal from - and the pain - but I'm so excited to move toward a cylindrical shape. 

I've posted more thoughts about the surgeons I evaluated and my other ramblings here if anyone is interested. 

I'm really excited though... I keep thinking about being able to wear pants at a real waist height, rather than this artificially lower waist that's created by my skin-gut.  Oh oh oh .... to tuck in a shirt!!!  Wow. 

Just rambling.  Wanted to share some emotion.  Less than two months away!

That's almost the problem - so much to do between now and then!

Really, I feel back about the amount of time I'll have to take off work :(

How exciting and nerve racking all at the same time. Just think when you heal from this surgery, MORE SHOPPING
