I have also posted in the TT forum but thought i should put 1 here also. I'm 30 with 3 daughters 7,8,10. Having a BBL w/ TT then in a later date having a BL w/ BA. I cant wait. Profile pic is dream pic.

I dont know if its just me but am i the only 1 that wants to lose 5-10 lbs before the surgery? i'm scared that i will still feel overweight after the procedures. i am 20-25 lbs from my ideal weight and thats scary. If i dont lose a few lbs now what happens when i lose 15lbs like 3 months after the surgery? im soo confused...smh :(

tomorrow at 1pm is surgery time. went into office to pay my balance and ask some questions. they gave me arnica and to take 2 pills a day. received all post op instructions. every1 in the office is very nice and pretty i might add. I met a patient that also had the tt/bbl combo. she's not on this site. she said it wasnt that bad and when she had pain the percocet took it away. she made me feel very at ease about surgery. she is very happy and said her tt scar is super thin and healing well, and she also said to not rush taking out the tt drains because she took them out after 7 days and had a lil fluid buildup. did a lil food shopping and my mom will restock every few days
FOOD: (griiled chicken, veggies, salad, fresh fruit, pineapple juice, red gaterade, water).
MEDS/Supplies: multivitamins, vitamin c powder drink(emergen-C), antibiotics, percocet, extra strenght tylenol, cough drops, baby wipes, anti-bacteriaal soap, neosporin, colace

24 HOURS POST-OP

I feel surprisingly good. Tummy is tight and feels like too many sit ups when i get in and out of bed. I'm laying on my sides switching every 1 hour, 1.5 hour when i get up to walk. i try to walk for 5-10min but i get very nauseated. i recommend they give u meds for nausea when u go home. I vomited the 2nd time i took percocet. i took 2 pills right when i got to my room, 6.5 hour later i took 2 after eating then vomited. now i take 1 percocet every 4-5 hours. i would say the nausea is the worse part, i hate that feeling. feels good to switch sides cause i get very stiff. my butt is big, i luv it. 1100 cc each side. its hard right now thanks for the well wishes, will update soon

3 DAY POST-OP: just had my massage with celia, i feel good right now. i took 1 percocet an hour before massage. massage felt good till she reached my back cause i have most swelling there so it wlow,as very tender and sore. im still in just a binder, i think i get cg wednesday which is also my 2nd massage and 2nd follow up with dr. i may try to just take tylenol and see how i feel and jus percocet at night. pain is minimal and nausea is gone since yesterday. now i have heartburn but that should go away when off percocet. im actually surprised at how good i feel, i was expecting the worse. i eat about everyother time i get up, its not much but must keep eating. apetite getting better. i also go peepee everytime i get up, no bm yet just pass gas. butt is still like a rock. my tt scar is really low and thin, the usual swelling and bruising. overall im very happy. just taking it day by day

9 DAYS POST-OP: overall TT im happy, still waiting on BBL, LIPO results because as of today i have few concerns

TT- ok i'm now having mixed emotions. my tummy is super swollen so right now i cant be happy about it. It was super flat day 1 n 2 now is like a basketball so i know it will be flat again just have to be patient with my body. No pain just soreness in muscles when like getting off/on the bed, random spasms and shooting paing. both drains come out tomorrow. Still only in binder, get cg for sure tomorrow
BBL- i'm having concerns with the roundness of my butt. i like the side profile and thats all, has good projection. rest of the angles i can see where its flat and looks square and i deffinitely feel it needs more fat placed there. i cant imagine where its flat will magically plump. No pain just sore with random shooting pains from nerves
LIPO- I'm very swollen in my back and still very sore there. i still feel fat in area above bra, hoping its swelling. i know overall it will get smaller with time due to swelling so have to be patient. inner thighs r smaller but also still swollen and very sore. back drain came out day 7

My rating:

Salama and the staff are awesome. Salama explained all the risk very well. He made sure i had realistic expectations for the results. No sugar coating, said it can be a difficult recovery. Office is very clean. Surgery center very clean. I'm only 24 hours post op so will update later.

I believe your going to have excellent results and you have just enough fat for the doctor to graft, I know your going to be pleased with your results. I cant imagine how you feeling right now with less than two weeks. Are you taking any supplements now?
