WORTH IT$10,000
Hello Realself world! I'm having my surgery tomorrow morning (omg!!)! I will take pics tonight. I'm 5'3 1/2, weigh 144, and am 39 years old. I have an 8 and 6 yr old. My son was a big boy (9.6) and stretched me out a bit. It's not terrible, but I'm not happy with it and never have been. Even before kids I always had a flabby tummy. I'm nervous about the lipo. I keep reading how painful it is, but I'm excited and ready to get this journey started.

Geez! This pain is no joke and I even have a pain pump. The chin doesn't seem to bother me as much as the MR and lipo on flanks and back. I'm pretty drugged up right now so I'm going to keep this short. I'm scared to look at incision. I'll post pics once I get a chance. In the meantime here's a few of before tummy and chin/neck. My neck looks a little cray cray.

It's only been 3 days and I think it's gotten a little easier as each day passes. I'm staying on top of my meds, but hope to ween off them in a day or 2.

Glad to hear that it's getting easier day by day. Your incision looks great! So is that the pain pump coming out of your incision or your drain?
October 21, 2013
Hi there! I think it's both. I'm suppose to take out the pain pump myself tonight. So I'll let you know.
October 21, 2013
Ya definitely let me know how that goes. I'm having a drainless TT so I Will only have to have the pain pump removed

Just took it out. It wasn't coming out of incision or drain. It was below the incision, closer to thigh. So weird. It didn't hurt taking it out.

Your incision is fantastic! Best one I've seen yet :))

Aww thanks. That makes me feel really good. I think it's too early to tell yet, but I'm def digging the belly button. It's not too small or too big.

The incision freaks me out the most and I told the PS that. He assured me that it will look awesome. I've seen hundreds. Yours is one of the very best. About your BB .... Did you put a marble in it for a spacer? I read that on here that people do that.

All I have is a piece of gauze over bb. I looked at many before after bb pics that my ps had on his website. He also did a few of my friends tt's so I knew I was in good hands. Good luck to you and feel free to ask any questions. I think my Valium is hitting me as I type. Goodnight. :)
