Surgery 7/16/07 - Pics *UPDATED 8/13/07*

[gizoto316]

Hey all, I finally had the surgery this past monday with Dr. Semlacher in Sacramento.  I had excision and lipo.  I am happy with the results so far and it's my understanding that it will get even better with time.  Even with the ace wraps around my chest, my t-shirt fits a lot better then before.  The surgery set me back about $5600.  Now I just need to work on my gut!

I will update the pictures every week or so.  I can't wait to finally be able to be out in public shirtless!  Let me know what you guys think.

Here are some updated pics.  Healing is going great!  The stiches were removed yesterday.

Here are more updated pics.  My right side is still a little swollen and there is a little bit of scar tissue on each side that I am massaging frequently.  I just started working out again.  Check the links above for before pictures.
