So today marks exactly one month until the big day!! I already got all my prescriptions filled and ready so that's out of the way. Luckily for me I found a pharmacy that with give controlled substances on prescription because most pharmacies in NYC will not.
I really don't know what else I need to bring. My doc says just bring myself and comfy clothing that either zip or button up the front and while that's easy enough to do, I feel like there is an after lipo checklist that I need to check out or something.
My doc will provide a bra, two compression garments and a lipo board or foam. Is there anything else that I should have guys??
I still have to book my stay and my flight so this week I will tackle that stuff.
I am going to try to upload some before pictures for you guys this week.
In the meantime any advice? Suggestions? Help!

Thanks!

You had fat taken out of your buttocks and thighs to enhance your breasts? Can you please post pictures of your updated silhouette, such as what you have for pics 2, 4, and 5 above. It would be of great help to see what your side view now looks like with the extraction and enhancement now complete and probably healed a lot better.

So I arrived in Charlotte this morning from NY. I am staying at a really awesome Air bnb nearby the docs office. I have my offical consultation in an hour to pay the rest of my dues and discuss my wants. I AM SO EXCITED!! I will post a ton of pics tonight hopefully if my husband is not too tired to take them. We were up all night last night packing and cleaning the house. I am hoping for dramatic lipo results so we shall see! I will keep you guys posted.

I can get around but definitely in pain (The lipo sites). Have needed the pain meds and so glad I have someone with me to help. Also from NYC! If you have any reco's for lymphatic massage let me know, I'm trying to find someone. Luckily I have 7 days off post op but a little nervous about managing subway, carrying bags etc if I'm still tender when I return. My Dr said no lifting 20lbs for 6-8 weeks. Lots of luck & best wishes for tomorrow!!!!

I had the surgery this morning. I feel pretty good. Follow me, you can keep up with my journey. I'd love to see your results! I am nervous about all of that as well but I think after 7 days you'll be fine. I do have a really good masseuse. Once I am back in NY i will give you the deets. Thanks for your well wishes hun!
