I want to start by saying I don't hate my body, but nothing gets better with age...well except wine. I've been working from home due to COVID and I figured what better time to make a major change. When we turn the corner on the virus I can't wait to live my normal life again and I don't want to be hiding behind baggy shirts and loose fitting pants.
A little about myself... I'm a married, working mom with 2 children living in Chicago. I'm a beauty product junkie! I love testing out new products and I have a recommendation on just about everything. So when I decided to move forward with my surgery it became my new pet project to figure out the best of the best! So I started with a surgeon. I chose Dr. Niki Christopoulos she kind, caring, and let's face it I prefer a woman's judgement, most men can barely dress themselves. My biggest concern is SCARS! I know a lot of women don't care, anything is better than what they had... god love them that's not me. So ladies I'm saving you time and energy and did all the research for you.

Yes, I’m home and posting! So far so good! The pain meds have been the most difficult part so far. I’m taking Zofran for nausea and fingers crossed it works. I know how important staying ahead of the pain is, those nasty little pills are key to having a quicker recovery.
I had a berry and pineapple smoothie when I got home. Who knew pineapple helps to reduce bruising and swelling??? An hour later I ate a little pasta, my PS wanted me to eat some “real” food as well. I’m drinking LOTS of water and I’ve only peed once so I’m retaining a lot of fluid.
I’m also taking arnica (PS approved she actually recommended it) It’s an all natural supplement that helps with muscle pain, stiffness, swelling and, bruising. It’s found at Walgreens, Target etc. I purchased mine at Whole Foods.
I rented a lift chair and thank god I did!!!! No way would I have been comfortable in a bed! This is a must have!

Did you sleep in the chair? I am scheduled for my MM(TT, BA/liposuction) in Dec 2021. Only a few weeks away. I have to stay in a hotel so I am trying to get my ducks in a row. Purchased a raised toilet seat, but not sure about the bed/renting a recliner chair(if this is even possible.)

Well I made it through my first day and it wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected. I had my post-op appointment and everything looked great! I’m staying on top of my pain pills and recovery vitamins. I’m trying to get as much protein as I possibly can I drank a muscle milk for breakfast, grilled chicken for dinner, and a smoothie with collagen for a snack. I’m starting to pee a lot and I can see my swelling go down. I’m so thankful I purchased a toilet seat riser. It’s an inexpensive game changer.
I have some discomfort from my ab tightening but I don’t even feel any breast pain. I had to ask my PS if she even did liposuction on my arm pit area, and yes she did. My biggest concern is I will over do it with my arms since I don’t feel any pain. So if you are on the fence about doing your breasts you might as well do them together your stomach will take all the pain.
Tomorrow I’m going to try walking more. I can’t wait to stand up straight! Over all I feel like I’m doing great!
