Emerald 89 Thanks girly! WHEN IS YOUR SURGERY DATE? I BET YOUR GONNA LOOK GREAT!
August 8, 2012

You look great, do you have the number to the company you went through to book you rental? I am scheduled for march 11th and I want to possibly get a place on or in walking distance to the beach, any suggestions

Hay Neishia5 I went on tripadvisor.com but you can google vacation home rentals an many sites will come up but please be carefull because many vacation homes are privately owned so once you find a property go on better business bureau (BBB.org) and check their business names and personal names. Also check on the site you find the landlord for previous tenant reviews. I say this because I didn't have a good experience with the landlord I had she did not take care of her property plu she had roaches it was a nightmare and I don't want no one else to go through what I went through especially during a time so sensitve such as surgery. Get at me if you need anything else and good luck!

Hey Hun, can you please send me list of things you think I will need for sx. Thank you.
August 16, 2012
Hay girl I forgot to mention you need Bromian pills to help with speeding up recovery and swelling so make sure you add this to th list I sent you.
August 15, 2012
thank you I'm looking at one called gavin on the beach in hollywood and in very close to the boardwalk, how is your healing process going
August 16, 2012
@Neishia5 that sound nice to be right on thee beach that will help take away some of the stress of the surgery to have a beautiful view of the ocean and be able to go out and walk the beach. I wish I wouldve been right up on the beach, I had to take a cab to hollywood beach during my stay. I'm healing really good my booty and stomach is soft and I feel I look a lot better then b4. I seriouly can't complain girl. I seel you have a while b4 you go under, thats good so you have plenty time to prepare.

@ meelee..are you still wearing Salama garment? or have you found something else? and how much smaller did your waist get with 2cd garment? im a wk post & just fit in medium. i started in large. scared the medium will shrink my butt. lol my waist is 40.5 in & I want All of it
August 21, 2012
Hay new me! I am still wearing but of course this is my last week yah!!! but I wore both my garments I got them altered-taking in at the waist. I really couldn't afford to buy anymore garments, so I think its a win win situation to get your large and medium garment taken in by a seamstress. My waist is 30 inches right now so it has went down a little nothing to drastic.

Hay ladies! I'm 4 weeks post op and doing really well. My large seroma on my lower left abdomin resolved on its own. An emergency doctor told me that it wasn't a good idea to keep getting it aspirated because that can cause infection. I went to see my primary doctor about it and they gave me a referral to see a surgeon but before I could make it to my appointment it cleared up on it's own so I cancled it. I believe it went away so quickly because I got both my garments taken in twice because I cant afford to keep buying new garments everytime they get loose.

My booty has went down but it was always expected because that initial biggness is all swelling but now its natural, soft and jiggly! it started to really soften up close to 3 weeks post op. I have been getting 2 post-op massages since I left Florida and it has helped break up all the scar tissue on my stomach and back, both area's are now starting to feel almost normal. I still feel tingling on the lateral area's of my butt but its not painful or anything. I had sex 2 weeks post op from the back but my boo was very gentle because I not him couldn't take it I love me some D**k! lol sorry ladies! I wouldn't recommend this for everyone because lots of girls say their vagina's swell and minds didn't only my pubic area.

I still am in love with my results because all you gotta do is look at my before pic and I needs to say no more! I literally hated my body. I was straight up and down and I hated to walk in pass men and they stare at my pretty face and then look at my butt and look away like "Aw man its a miss"!! Even tho I didn't do this for men I did this for myself but it is nice to have that confidence and not have to cover my ass when I go out. I did g to the club and got drunk, man I needed it and I had a really good time and everybody was staring men and women, I wore my favorite yellow dress I will post a pic of me in the dress. Its not even just my butt its my whole shape my waist is so small and those aggravating flanks was the worse they are actually gone! ugh I love it! I was so drunk the weekend this guy followed us to the car and I hoped right in the back seat and laid down on my stomach and he was like why you laying like that? I was like get away lol! this has been a funny experience so much other embarassing stuff have happened but it would take too much typing to get it all in lol!

I have ran into another problem, now it seems like my upper body is getting big I have always been top heavy but it seems like my [RS bleep] are getting bigger then ever idk. Plus it seems like i have been having these bad cramps on that time of the month that I havent had since I was a teenager idk if this have something to do with the surgery or not its just something that has appeared after surgery.

well ladies I do think thats about everything I can think of to update if you lades have any questions feel free to asks away just please give me time to respond because I haven't been on this site as much as b4 surgery and I'm preparing to start back nursing school. I also will uploade some new pics! thank yal!

Hay girls! so I got my 4th massage yesterday and it seem like it made my seroma fill with more fluid and it seem to burn as the massage therapist massaged over it. IDK I think I need to call and ask is it good to get massages over the actual seroma? My ass was iching like crazy last night and I know i'm not supposed to scratch but God it felt so good, I had to plow my haands from my ass in order to stop! I rubbed some curel on it hoping it would stop. I'm still extremly swollen, I just cant wait to be able to sit and get rid of this stupid garment. I know before the surgery i always said I would do a round 2 but i have a change of mind i can't imagine putting myself through this torture again.

12 days in and lots more to go.... Im glad that we all can share our thoughts and advice through this website about our surgery. but i dont think that we all truely exspect exactly what we end up going through mentally and physically. It boils down to Mind Over Matter. We have to be strong, this is something that takes months to fully recover back to 100%. I will be 5months on the 22nd and i still have some of that funny numbing feeling in my stomach and slight pin needle sticks in my butt and other small things. we have to first be patient and just know that its not going away now or tommorow but it will in due time and we have to deal with it the best way we can. Support from friends and family and taking care of ourselves the right way and making sure we get OUT. please dont make the mistake i made by sitting in the house for long periods of time. I got so DEPRESSED !!!!! and that made things so much worst. Good Luck
July 16, 2012
Thanks 76lovejoy and I totally agree with you, I have my good and bad days more good, but I do find it refreshing to get out the house and it make the days go by quick. I do find myself wanting to bounce back tommorow but I know thats not gonna happen so I have to take it day by day. One thing I can say is that it gets better each day that pass and that gives me hope. Thanks again for the encouraging words :)
July 16, 2012
You're so very right when you said we don't truly expect what we really go through. I don't think anyone can really understand how hard this is until she is on the other side. Thank you for this, because at 6 days PO it is just what I needed to hear. And meelee, baby we can do this!! :-)
July 27, 2012
thank you fabnewme this is really hard but I have to say that it has gotten much better as the days go by. I checked out your pic and you so hot girl!!!

thankyou for sharing 76 love joy. i was wondering. i know you said it takes months to recover BUT does it take months before you can sit without hendering your results? i drive for a living so im scared of killing my fat cells when starting back. i took 2 months off. do you think thats enuff? ~worried~
