I am a 37 year old mother of 3. My last two pregnancies I gained a ton of weight and delivered two 9lb boys! Needless to say my body has never been the same. On the day I delivered my third child I weighed 256lbs! I now have consistently weighed between 163-173 for the last 3years. I eat a overall healthy diet a have worked out consistently for the last 4 years. It's time to undo some damage that I cannot undo on my own.

I am 1 day pre-op and I have had this annoying scratchy throat for the past week that has caused me to wake up in the middle of the night! I have no temp, no phlegm, no sneezing, just a dry cough and a tickle in my throat! Does anyone know if I should postpone surgery? My doctor seems to think I will be ok but I am questioning if I will be in pain if I have a dry cough after surgery?

Coughing is hands down the most uncomfortable thing to do post op. I'm 12 days post and still can't cough. I grab my water as soon as I feel a tickle. Just my two cents worth. Good luck with whatever you decide!

well my doctor will charge a cancellation fee if you reschedule. i think you should go ahead and keep the appointment because being intubated you will still have the same feeling, good luck

Yesterday I had my abdominalplasty with Lipo yestetday. I was a ball of nerves before surgery. My surgery was 8:15 to 11:15. Thankfully I had plenty of time in the post op area, the only pain I felt yesterday was minor burning pain I would say about a 5-6 pain level. I would go with the word uncomfortable . I was wheeled chaired next door to a hotel where I spent the night. I sleep surprisingly well.

I am swollen but not that bad, I would say I feel tender.

Keep pillows in your car and place between seatbelt and you... The seatbelt "got" me and the spot took an entire month to heal.
