Almost 3 Weeks Post Op...A few more Pics Up!! Tummy is still sore and a little swollen but better

So Wednesday will be Week 3!! Seems like just yesterday I was worried about going under and my flight cancellations due to Sandy. So far the recovery has been better...still no sitting! I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to pull off Thanksgiving with this sitting situation...my boyfriend and I are supposed to be going to an upscale restaurant so I'm sure my Boppy will not be welcomed. LOL!
I am dying to get back into the gym. I haven't been wearing my garment as much, but I wear my squeem religiously and my Booty-Out Panties that I purchased from Vedette. My tummy dropped from 31 inches to 29 inches in 1 week. It's still sore and lumpy around the belly area so I'm hoping that it will drop at least 1 more inch once the swelling goes down.
Well, that's about all that I have for now ladies...
HAPPY TURKE Y DAY!!!

Sorry to have fallen off of the face of the earth. I've been taking it easy and trying to recover each day. I'm operating at about 75%. I'm still very sore and swollen in my stomach and back areas. As far as my travels back from Miami, I ended up catching a flight that was empty so I was able to lay across three seats. When I took took the Charter bus back to New York, I paid for two seats so I could lay down. The only time I had to really sit was when I went to the hair salon on Saturday. I tried to hold out but I was already 1 month overdue!! It doesn't help having a fresh new booty with wolverine hair! lol
I'll try to take some better pics but I wasn't able to get a good angle with the stupid flash. If you guys have any questions about the process or going through Dr. Salzhauer...shoot away! I think he is a phenomenal PS!
Oh yeah...almost forgot..the CC's. He said that I got 3000 altogether. 200 in each hip and the rest was distributed evenly in the cheeks.

Hey Guys, I actually ended up having my surgery on Wednesday instead of today. If I didn't have my surgery on Wednesday they would not have been able to squeeze me in until next week...unfortunately my hotel was paid up through next Wednesday. My mom at the last minute came up with the idea of driving 2 hours away to fly out of Richmond. We arrived in Ft. Lauderdale a little after midnite on Tuesday and I reported for surgery on Wednesday.

The preparation for surgery:
As soon as I arrived I had to give a urine sample for a pregnancy test. I was immediately given consent forms to sign, surgery knee-hi stockings, and little thick socks to put on over the stockings. I met with Dr. Salzhauer and showed him my powerpoint presentation of Ideal volume wish pics and not-so-ideal pics. He does enjoy wish pics. They didn't waste anytime to get me into the surgery room. About 30 minutes after I arrived I was laid out on the operating table with the IV hooked up. I slowly drifted off and woke up in pain sitting on the boppy. The anesthesiologist was very nice and comforting...his little nurse's assistant-not so much. She wasn't rude, but I felt like even though I was nervous no one really seemed too compassionate about that. I just wanted someone to be more comforting with holding my hand until I fell asleep.

My first night was hell. Pain, bleeding, and more pain. I laid out a shower curtain on the bed to avoid getting blood on the comforter and sheets. My mom has been an absolute trooper in helping me remember to take my meds and supplements on time. Getting up to go to the bathroom has been a challenge. I've been hunched over walking like a little old lady.

My surgery sister MsCheshireKitty sent me pics of her results and Salzhauer did his this!!! I'm going to try to post some pics tonight or tomorrow. I didn't really bruise too much...just a little under my breasts and sides. My stomach is still extremely swollen. Thanks for all of the prayers and support. I'll continue to update you on my journey.
