Last year, I had a breast lift and augmentation to correct pregnancy/breast feeding/massive weight loss. This year, I finally completed stage two! My lower body lift with the same surgeon. My surgery date was October 38/2016 and everything went great! The first week and a half I had a LOT of doubts, I significantly underestimated the pain but I have made huge progress this last week and am starting to feel like my old self again :)

Visited Dr. Eckhaus yesterday, he said all my incisions look great. Retaped them until Saturday (22 days post op), at which time I will remove them and air out a few days.

Surgery pics and day 18 update
Skin is pretty dry and itchy from wearing the medical wrap 24/7. Swelling goes down a little every morning, I generally have to pee around 4am then again at 8 and again an hour later.

Congrats. Mine is in 2 weeks. How is your recovery so far? I was thinking of renting a lift chair but my surgeon told me to not waste money on it. Just lower my bed and elevate my shoulders and feet. I bought a toilet riser though. Hopefully your recovery goes smooth and fastest way possible. Congrats again

I'm not gonna lie to you LOL the first two weeks I regretted having the surgery done. It was by far the worst surgery I have ever had. Then all of a sudden one morning I woke up and started to feel like myself again. I didn't find sitting down on the toilet as difficult as I did getting in and out of bed and off the couch. Now that I am 3 1/2 weeks out this car is almost completely closed and I am able to move around a lot easier - I am happy with my decision. Best of luck and hang in there - it DOES get better

Glad to hear that. Yeah. I started to panic a bit. I won't back out of it, but you know how it is. Tons of things going through my head. Are you able to sit at a desk in the 3rd week? I can work remotely and hoping to able to do work from home for 2 weeks.
It is worth it, but it is a big procedure. Good for you for handling it like a champ :)

I am going back to work tomorrow (at a bank). After sitting for a while I get pretty stuff but I think it should be ok. I would say in a comfortable position on a couch you should be ok after a few weeks to work on a laptop
