Gets lonely

:/ just laying around on your stomach watching time go by.. Lol think I'm gonna start working on my arms. Today I decided to stop taking the percs - way too strong! Switching to Aleve. Or I'll just cut down to 1 perc or maybe a half. I feel like the percs are making me depressed. I had to actually go outside and get fresh air. Speaking of I'm definitely more mobile. Only thing is I don't have much of an appetite. Water, crackers, soup, yogurt, and rice seem to be all I want. I've also thrown oatmeal into the mix, I will be starting fresh juices soon so I can have a BM. Which leads me to say.. Passing gas is SOOO reliving! I was grumpy all morning until it finally came out. Hot tea really helped bring it out.

This has been more of a journey than I thought it would be. So many uphill battles.. Within myself, but I'm finding strength everyday through prayer and just communicating with humans. ( not just laying and letting the tv watch me)

Man oh man this booty heavy! I've been very stiff and sore. I also got my menstrual so everything is just extra draining. I'm still taking the percs to relieve my stiffness. I will say I'm finding upper body strength I never had before. I will say movement is key or it's just heavy weight and your lower half will just fall asleep & that is absolutely NO fun. Massages tend to ease it up and get blood flowing .
But anytime I feel down I just think how good it's gonna look with this garment off lol

Smh swollen fingers hit update lol but FINALLY a Schulman Doll!

Work.. Dr Schulman came in to talk with me, take. Pics and mark me up. I was so excited I forgot to show wish pics. All I could say was "BIG" but not omg who where'd that come from big.. He joked "are you sure?" I was like wait you're right omg big!!!!!! But with my proportions he mentioned it would be big. Oh yea I was playing music to calm me down and he's like no worries there's music waiting in the OR for you.. I was walked over by his lovely assistant and there really was music playing.. Everyone had amazing energy as black eyed peas sang " I gotta feeling today's gonna be a good day" I smiled and was like you really do have music for me. Jay helped me lay down.. Told me picture the boys staring at your new big booty on the beach.. We chuckled and next thing the happy juice relaxed me to sleep lol.


I woke up like disssss .. Well in recovery I heard a few voices, but was so sleepy. I know Schulman and my mom came in but that's kinda fuzzy.. I wasn't in any pain just sleepy I slept and awoke to jay. I pretty much slept and she checked my blood pressure and gave me fluids. She got me ginger ale to sip, pain meds & crackers. She told me all of my love handles were sucked out to define my hips, had fat added to my hips so no side sleeping, and back fat sucked to give a real scoop! After I fully woke up we chatted, I was assisted in dressing, and they called my mother up. I believe I was in surgery for 3 hours and left there around 6.. The drive home I laid down in the back.. Came in drank water, some homemade no salt broth and just slept. My mommy is a terrific nurse! I can see some back bruises. I do feel like a million bucks. I told the staff my mind is telling me I'm ready to move my body however not soo much.. This booty is HEAVY!!!!!!! I'm not in much pain.. Just a backache some cramping in the lower abs but I do feel great., I'm praying to keep this up later. My hands get REAL crampy. I'm also bleeding from somewhere so mommy set up the bed real nice so I don't mess up anything. I also had some warm water to break the gas I'm burpy! I hope this sums up everything.

I'm writing off the iPad I will add the one pic I do have later that's on my phone or have my mom take some and upload later. Thank allllllll of you ladies for your support!
