I have a date!!!

Dec 08, 2009

Yep! that's right my Panniculectomy surgery has been scheduled for January 28, 2010! I am very excited about it. Sad to say but I'm ready for the Holidays to zoom through so I can go ahead and get this ball rolling. Actually I could have had the surgery as soon as Thursday if I wanted, however I decided 8 weeks is enough time for me to handle my business. I plan on taking the whole month of February off from both of my jobs to recover. I'm already working on a list of questions for my surgeon for my pre-op appointment on Jan. 11th. For those of you wondering what a Panniculectomy is...it's not a tummy tuck. Its where they remove the excess skin below the naval (tummy tucks include tightening of the abdominal muscles). I will also have a lipectomy which is fat removal...not like liposuction where they make the fat fluid and suction it out...but actually cutting the fat out of the abdomen area....at least that's my understanding of it. Anywho, just thought I'd share my good news. Be Blessed, and I'll keep ya posted!
