Its a Date! Booked With Dr Hughes Nov 7.14. California, CA

Sorry I havente posted. My internet doesn't work consistently In this hotel room. Day 2 was [RS bleep]! Nausea and vomiting got the best of me. Drained me dry. Day 3 was uphill for sure. I'm tapering of pain meds. Day 4. I'm totally offers. I feel great. The only thing that bothers me is the garment. It's super confining and I can't get good breathing in.
Went in yest/day3. Had concerns about how to where this annoying garment. I can't breath and can I sleep but I'm determined to keep it tight. First of all he had me at "what do you want?". He's is is as real as it gets and that's pretty refreshing. He's kinda mad scientist like. I really don't think he cares about me. I'm just another body. That's ok though. His humor makes up for his compassion. Jk:) Lol, that was for Dr Hughes if he reads this. Real selfies Run to Dr Hughes office. You will not go wrong. I couldn't feel any better about my choice. I will continue to update. When my internet gets stable.

K, surgery started at 12, done at 4 and home by 6. It's was BRUTAL!!!! I've been gettig up and walking around every hr on the hr. I'm getting better by the he though. Getting in and out if bed is RUFF. Glad id been doing push ups because you need strong arms to move around. I'm drinking lots off water, eating fruit and taking a pain pill every 4-6 hrs. I really thought I could avoid the pills but I have no desire to know howuxh this really hurts at this point. My right arm got really swollen so I loosened my arm wraps and that did the trick. I haven't changed dressings yet but I did tighten my wrap. Dr Hughes stresses that keeping it tight around the belly keeps the fluid away. My head wrap is annoying. Told I have to wear it for 2 weeks. Doesn't anyone know about this? I can't go in public this way. I've gotta fly home! Dr Hughes callex to check up on me around 4 today. That was nice to hear. He updated me on how things went. Says he got 1200cc I each cheek. Yikes! I'm 5'1" and normally 107lbs. I did ask him to put it all there and I would work it off. There aren't any fun pics to post right now. I'm wrapped up and I looked crap. I'll post when I take my garment of for the first time.

Good morning ladies. It's 6:30 am
My surgery is at 10:39am. I slept well. I was instructed to not eat 8 hrs prior to surgery. My last meal was at 8:30 last night. I'm not too hungry this morning. Just ready to get this on. I've got liquid iron, emergen C, bromelain with turmeric, liquid vit C, arnica Montana and fiber tummies. Dr Hughes asked why I was taking these things. My response was "I don't know. I read it on real self" lol. My goal is to get home ASAP. I'm doing whatever possibly to zap myself back to public and travel condition. From everything Ive read on here, seems like this surgery is brutal. Im petrified of being couped up in this hotel room. Me + pain pills = depression. I don't dead pain at all. I fear depression and being helpless. Thought hubs is here, last thing I want is someone wiping my ass. I warned him he may have to and he nearly barfed. It was funny. :)
Im trying to have some mind control and self talks right now.
Oh, forgot to mention that I've been nauseated for the last 4 nights. Every night around 9pm I would get nauseated. I think it was just nerves and realizing that I was actually doing this, leaving my baby and risking my life... The nausea was weird. I'm def not pregnant. Thought I'd share that little bit for anyone that might encounter that. I would say that I'm typically not a worry wart. I fear very little. I really think there's some underlining things I can't put my finger in that was causing the nausea. One last ramble. I still don't feel 1,000% about booking with Hughes. I don't think I will have ever gotten to that point with any Dr. I do feel that I made the best decision if the 3 I considered. I think my age is causing more hesitation. I had my boobs done when I was 25 and didn't have a single doubt or concern. At 39, Im hyper aware. I know this is prob wisdom but dang I miss my ignorance cause life altering decisions sure we're bliss. Ahhhhh
See you real selfies on the other side! I'll be a Hughes hottie by the pm. Feel free to send love sexiness my way.
