Okay ladies! Here we go...
So we flew into LA for surgery from out of state and I had to fly back home for work on my 5th day post op.
I went for my follow up appointment and the nurse lady was the one who met with me and she said "wow, you're healing extremely well!" And I was happy she said so because I totally agreed. She told me I could remove the foam I had on my lower back and gave me 2 soft lovely pieces of memory foam for my sides. She then told me about my stage 2 garment and about the scar cream.
She wrote me a note for the plane stating that I just had surgery and might need to stand during the flight. She also provided me with a note for my job saying I need to work from home for an additional week after my "vacation" as I emded up telling my very close boss about my surgery.
She told me I can't drive until I'm at 3 weeks post op.
I got on the plane and i was miserable. I didn't have pain meds on my carry on and was swelling pretty bad from the heat of the layers I was wearing and also from walking around the airport. (I wore my garment, sweat pants, a sweatshirt, compression socks and slippers!) I used my purse and set it under my thighs and used my hands to prop my butt up for take off and landing on the plane. When seat belt lights were off, i literally got down on my knees with my elbows on the seat and my face facing towards where my back would go on the seat. THANK GOD somehow we got seats in the very back of the plane... lol
Anyways I then just chilled and kind of worked from home the first entire week after surgery.
But I said "[RS bleep] this I need to work" and got a "Booty Buddy" pillow and ended up driving to work the 2nd week of surgery, I couldn't stand laying around any longer and my job is extremely important, I can't just leave it for that long. So against better judgement, I drove and went to work the 2nd week. It was ok, I just sat partially on my pillow but then eventually started putting it on the ground and kneeling ok it. No one has asked me about it lol. They mind their own business. So about mid week 2 I said "[RS bleep] this garment, I look great" and moved into stage 2 garment which was much easier to wear throughout the day. I then added a corset (super tight) and I wore it all day every day for the remainder of the week.
This last weekend (almost at week 3) I actually went out and didn't wear my garment at all. I am super petite and had hardly any lipo done so "whatever" I thought lol. "I'll be fine" and I was great and didn't swell up or anything aside from the small swelling that's lingering around.
I sleep in it and now I'm on week 3 and I've been wearing it all day/night since Sunday. I think I'm doing great, I don't even feel like I've had surgery aside from my booty being a lil sensitive to hard touch and a little firm/lumpy feeling underneath the skin. I also developed some hard small (marble shaped and sized) lumps on my lower abdomen and one on my right side around mid week 2 but they are almost gone as I've been leisurely massaging them.
I feel great! Oh also, I have eczema and have had it my whole life, and my garment makes me a little sweaty in this hot weather and I noticed that's the only itching I've had is actually directly resulted from my eczema. I have to apply my lotion every couple of days to stop my itching. Also I was applying my lotion on my body and accidentally pulled some of my skin on my left rib/upper abdomen and it burned like [RS bleep] HELL, I think I tore some of the nerves that were healing from surgery. It really hurt and now it's still a teeny bit sensitive but almost all back to healed or nonsensitive. I'm super excited to be at 6 weeks but I look great in clothes! I've attached some updated pics. I'll take an unclothed one this weekend to update.

2 Day Post Op Update (with pics)
The surgery was great and I wasn't even nervous prior to. I went in to the surgery center around 8am (surgery scheduled for 9am) and the front desk girl took me back to read over everything one last time and make sure I was aware of the procedure.
I then went to the bathroom, gave a urine sample and changed into an ugly surgery robe. I had to wait about 30 mins then the nurse came in and stuck my IV in my arm. This wasn't an issue for me as I'm not afraid of needles. Then she said Dr. Dass would be with my shortly. About 15 mins later he came in and marked my body with a purple marker as to where he would lipo/transfer. He reconfirmed my wants and I was super excited. I then had to wait about 15 more minutes and during that wait there was a girl he just finished surgery with and she was waking up. She was really out of it and trying to say "my butt hurts" and that she didn't even realize it was over with. She was very out of it and it almost made me nervous but then I figured if she's doing well then I'll do just fine.
Then they took me into the surgery room where I laid on my back and they gave me the sedative. It just felt like I was a little high for about 10 seconds and next thing you know, I'm waking up.
When I woke up, I responded much quicker and better than the girl that I heard before my surgery. I said "is this the first time I'm speaking to you?" And the nurse said, yes, you are waking up. She then told me to slow my breathing to regulate my heart rate because it was a bit high from adrenaline I suddenly got from waking up. About 30 mins later I was moved to a wheelchair where I greeted my bf in the lobby and we rolled out to the parking garage so I could get in the car. I laid face down and was completely conscious and aware of everything as if I never was put under. Then my boyfriend gave me some water as I needed to take my pain pills then my nausea pills immediately together. He drove to CVS up the block and got me some ritz crackers which worked great and I never once experience nausea.
We got back to the hotel and I walked to the room and laid down on the bed. My narco made me super drowsy so I basically slept all day and my boyfriend monitored me as I slept. I remember he even was grabbing my wrist in the middle of the night to check my heart rate and I was half asleep but it was so cute :)
The next day I told him he could go out and explore LA since we're from out of state and I basically slept again the whole day. I never needed the female urinal since I'm pretty petite and wasn't feeling too uncomfortable. I just really needed the pain pills when it came to sleeping because the swelling and garments were pretty uncomfortable. I slept like a baby when I took my meds.
48 hours later I took my first shower! I was so scared to see my stomach... not gonna lie I thought my belly button would be all fucked up and weird looking. To my pleasant surprise, my body looked AMAZING! I was thinking, "damn, I look good!" Wow my stomach was flat but swollen and my love handles were gone. I was so excited. The shower felt great and my incisions weren't even really painful. Sometimes I would feel a slight sharp pain, but it wasn't too bad. Anyways that's really it for my review! I was feeling pretty good only a couple days post op.

I'm super excited to be getting my BBL done with...
I'm super excited to be getting my BBL done with Dr. Dass in Beverly Hills. I will have to fly from a different state to get it done. I chose Dr. Dass because his work says it all. I watched his YouTube videos and searched countless doctors and he was the best. Surgery this Friday!! He is very nice.
