I've been batteling with my body ever since I could remember and finally decided this was the only way to start my new journery to finally be at peace with my body. I've gained weight, and I've lost it. But I could never achieve the look I desired. Well I finally came to a point in my life where I could afford to do this for me, mentally, financially and situationally. I'm still in my post op stages and I'm very excited for the final outcome. I'm glad I didn't let my fear get the best of me and went thru with it! As the swelling goes down I'm starting to see results, and they are looking better than I had anticipated! The pain was about what I expected, but the recovery was a little unexpected. There are still things happeing to my body that I am not sure are normal, that is why I am so glad I found this page, so I can share my experiances and hear about other peoples so I don't feel so alone! So I hope I make connections wih others in similar situations so we can help eachother :)

2marows my post op visit, I hope the doc. Says all is well. Uhg I feel like dog turds 2day & look like hell 2! I've got dark circles under my eyes and look very pale. I ache a little, I mostly feel like I'm on fire lol, nerves growing back I suppose. The bruising and swelling is going away, yay! My biggest concern is becoming addicted to my pain meds! :( my husband snapps at me when I don't take them, but when I don't I hurt, but I heard oxys are addictive so I try to only take them when I really really hurt! Well we'll see how my post op goes, maybe it'll be picture time :) hopefully soon can't w8 2 c results!

Uhhhg! My husbands being an unbelieveable jerk! I hurt & ache, and yes I know that is normal cuz I'm healing! Then he mocks me and tells me, awe, do you need to be caudled? When all I need is just some understanding! I'm completely off my pain meds and this is my first night of just plain tylenol! :( I can't move very fast,but I'm trying! I'm going for walks and trying to be me again :( I know I made the descion to have this done so I don't expect to be felt sorry for, all I ask for is just a little comfort! :( if I had one wish it would be for the rest of you ladies who've had this done, to have some comfort, caring, and support :( I knw this is gonna be a long lonely, achey night. Sleep well all :(

Hi muffinLess, thx for thinking of me! I changed over to a liquid diet for a while, I was getting tired of feeling sick with solid food! Yuck! I'm gonna try slowly introducing solids maybe in a few days. I feel kinda tired & sluggish. How are u feeling so far? Has your bruising & swelling gone down yet?

Needssupport77 I'm concerned about your nausea. Could it just be stomach bug? One of my meds my dr had me fil was phenomena for nausea but I never needed it. Hope you feel better!

@Ifly65, hello! :) well I'm all finished taking my pain meds & antibiotics, and I'm roughly a week and a half post op, I feel good otherwise, except when I try 2 eat :( I haven't seen anything frm anyone else saying they feel the same way, I'm just wondering if it has to do with residual anesthesia in my system, or just my body reacting differently to fatty foods??? I'm gonna give it another week,if nothing wrks or I don't hear of others having the same prob.I. think I'll call my dr. & ask his advice :(
