Finally Getting Rid of this Pouch AND getting a BUTT!!! - Beverly Hills, CA

Hey mommyES! Things are going so well. (I should knock on wood!) my bruising is already fading, the sensation is coming back to the lipo areas and I am moving around so much better. My pain management doc increased my usual meds and it worked out great. I am down to three times a day from 1 every 4 hours. I will start trying Extra Strength Tylenol tomorrow. I took my first shower and washed my hair all by myself!!!! Then, I was able to put my CG on myself too! Woo-Hoo! Then I went back to bed. LOL! Tomorrow is my first PO appointment. I hope he's as happy as I am. I'm kind of hungry and if I'm going to have something other than protein smoothies I need to get back in my kitchen! I am sure PS will take pictures so I will have him email me all he has of me. How are you? Sleeping?

Stay. You won't regret it. I stayed an extra day. Totally worth the care and peace of mind.

If you haven't had that elusive bm yet try this. Hopefully you can find it where you are: Smooth Move Tea ( real original product name, right!) and Mira Lax. Mira Lax is a powder, tasteless that dissolves quickly in any liquid. I have had nightmare pain med post op bm's that brought me to tears, nausea, sweating. This was one of my biggest fears about post op. I stayed in an aftercare for 2days drinking tons of water, tea, and liquid. Nothing, I really didn't expect anything or really want anything. When I got home I immediately made a cup of the tea, later had a glass of water with Mira Lax and before bed one more tea. The next morning I had the smoothest movement ever. Throughout the day I had two more. Drank another cup of tea next night, same result. I am so happy. Sounds weird, right! LOL! Hope you have relief soon.

I guess I should read some on the lipo board. I'm concerned that I'm doing so well and other issues are going to start popping up! I feel really good today, except for the whole bruised body I got hit by a train look. So, I'm going to start swelling? I've been taking Arnica and Bromelain for a week. I see my PS tomorrow. Hate to think about the car trip. Not far but my butt hurts!! Oh, I made breakfast this morning. Oatmeal. Can you believe that? LOL!

I was dreading the first bowel movement as I am hyper sensitive to the constipation and have as the worst experience imaginable. I got home yesterday afternoon and made myself a cup of Smoorh Move Tea,ended up having another later and mixing MiraLax into my water. 5am this morning, ta-dah!!!!! Perfection. I started having a little gas yesterday but not much.
