For individuals interested in a plastic surgery procedure, maintaining a proper diet and exercise regimen can help enhance results and reduce recovery time. I will continue to do my part to meet your desired aesthetic goals, but I also place the utmost importance that you do your part to preserve your plastic surgery results. Providing yourself nutritional care two weeks before and after surgery is an important aspect in meeting your cosmetic surgery desires. In order to achieve correct preoperative and post-operative nutrition, you must meet your recommended intake of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, protein, and fat. According to popular nutrition data, the chart below illustrates healthy, yet tasty alternatives to substitute for high-fat, high-calorie choices:

EAT THIS	Calories (serving size: 1)	NOT THAT	Calories (serving size: 1)
Air Popped Popcorn	110 (1 oz)	Potato Chips	155 (1 oz)
Fat-Free Plain Greek Yogurt	17 (1 oz)	Vanilla Ice Cream	59 (1 oz)
Brown Rice	32 (1 oz)	White Rice	37 (1 oz)
Almond Milk	7 (1 fl. oz)	2% Milk	15 (1 fl. oz)
Olive Oil	119 (0.5 fl. oz)	Butter	102 (0.5 oz)
Hummus	47 (1 oz)	Mayonnaise	170 (1 oz)
Wheat Pasta	35 (1 oz)	Pasta	45 (1 oz)
Coconut Water	6 (1 fl. oz)	Grape Juice	16 (1 fl. oz)

I was in trouble when my doctor told me that I have been diagnosed with Colon Cancer Disease… I thought about my children, I know my children will face a serious problem when I'm gone, I lost hope and I wept all day, but one day I was surfing the internet, I found a testimony of someone that was cured of CANCER Disease by Dr Odudu. I collected his contact email. I mailed him and he guided me. I asked him for solutions and he started the remedies for my health. Thank Allah, now everything is fine, I'm cured by Dr.ODUDU herbal medicine, I'm very thankful to Dr Odudu. And now, I'm happy with my loved ones again. You can also email him on dr.oduduherbalhome@gmail.com phone number (whatsapp) or call +2348101571054. you can easily reach him If you have a similar problem. https://www.facebook.com/DR.ODUDU And his YouTube channel youtube.com/channel/UCWkcwe4TCBb0DvyETNDb2ng

I cannot say enough about Dr. Whiteman and his amazing team at Southern Plastic Surgery! I had a few different surgeries in one operation with him in January 2021 and he made the entire experience wonderful! From the initial consultation to today, he and his staff made me feel comfortable and relaxed, he held my hand through the entire process, never pressured me into something I didn’t want, and was available at last minute to squeeze me in when I thought I popped a stitch at 2 weeks post op. You just don’t find this type of care in today’s doctors anymore! I have recommended him to everyone I know and will continue to do so! If you’re looking for a plastic surgeon, for whatever reason, I promise you won’t find better than Dr. Whiteman!!!

I honestly can't say enough great things about Dr. Whiteman and staff! They have had my complete trust, and gratitude for 12 years now. Besides being the BEST surgeon, Dr. Whiteman has the most amazing bedside manner. My latest procedure was the Croton Oil Peel. I had all of given up on broken promises, and procedures from renown doctors. Dr. Whiteman said, trust me, and I did! And for the first time, I wasn't let down! I have my confidence back! I'm so happy! Thank you 😊💓

This is my second time here! That alone speaks volumes! Honestly, I’m terrified to even go to ANY doctor and I can’t even do shots but Dr. Whiteman’s sense of humor and commitment to doing everything with such precision always makes me feel so much better. He really is patient oriented and wants everything to go perfectly. He is super knowledgeable and he’s also very blunt and honest which is so very VERY important for all doctors but especially a plastic surgeon!! I’m a perfectionist and so is he! He’s the kind of person you would love to hang out with (good bedside manner) but also trust to do the perfect surgery!! You never have to worry about mistakes with this team!! He and Beth (his assistant) make quite the team!! Love Beth! They are on top of it! I Highly highly recommend this team and if I decide to do anything else it will be with Dr. Whiteman and his team of people!
