After much talking and processing, I made my decision. I am going with Dr. Michaels in DC. I am going to say, I know I couldn't have gone wrong either way...Dr, Michaels or Dr. Capella. They both seemed great, and had very on-the-top-of-things offices.

Well I drove over 2 bridges and through the Bronx to have my consult with Dr. Capella today. Light traffic! Lucky me.

I have to say I was excited when I left and I think he might be at the top of the list.

Love the idea of Dr. Katzen, a

It is really weird to be able to post while flying. As I write this the girl sitting next to me is eating chocolate cake and gingerale for breakfast. Fitting in a seat and not worrying if someone is sitting next to you doesnt seem to get old.

This is sure an interesting journey.

Tuesday I went to see a surgeon in Great Neck, NY which is NY City adjacent = pricey. marble floors and bathrooms felt like I was in a movie. That being said he was very nice but his prices were over the top

So yesterday I scheduled 2 consultations with Plastic Surgeons. I have been thinking about it for awhile, and went for Body fat testing a few weeks ago to see where I was at and was I within shooting range of PS. I am 15lbs away from my goal of 24% ie.
