Surgery done!

It was estimated to last 5.5 hours. I went into OR at 10:30, woke up at around 5pm. I’m not sure how long I was under prior to waking up. I received 190cc sientra textured implant on left, 220cc on right. Subglandular because I have a lot of breast tissue. Dr. Epstein removed 3.5 lb.s of fat with lipo. 5.5 lb.s total. I weighed 147.5 at checkin. I’m in surgical center. No real pain issues. I get an ache and they put something in the IV. Pain is 2/3 if I laugh. 1 if I lay still.

Two Weeks Plus and Great
meganagainAugust 2, 2017
I was supposed to have a tummy tuck and breast lift this week but about nine days post op I was really tired and when I told my cosmetic surgeon, booked to do tummy and breasts, that I bled a lot in surgery, he tested my hemoglobin. It had dropped from 13.6 to 10.1, so that explained the fatigue. I was really anemic.
A few days on iron and I feel amazing. Really at two weeks, my pain was gone and I felt normal. I looked at my incision for the first time today and it's gorgeous. I do have some incisions poking out on the inside. I have to go to in tomorrow to get the stitches removed or cut so they stop poking me.

Working from home, feeling good
meganagainJuly 17, 2017
I'm off narcotics and feeling good. I own my own business and can work from home so today I started early and it's going well. I have a pattern where I work for 25 minutes and then get up, ice (I can't find a way to sit on ice that's comfortable), walk around. Then back. After about two hours I took a nap, then back at it.
Spent some time reclining on the couch. This position is good because I can ice while I sit but it really starts to wear on my lower back/tailbone.
Now I'm trying standing.
I haven't had a ton of appetite but I make sure I'm eating really nutrient dense foods frequently, even if just a few bites. I have stayed on a keto diet and it actually is great for recovery. If you can only have a few bites, I think an avocado is better than a saltine. I made a batch of keto swedish meatballs and they were the only thing that could really make me HUNGRY but I tried to hold back and balance it with lots of green beans. Do NOT want any kind of back up in the digestive system.
