OMG it has come down to less than two weeks for my make-over! I cannot be more excited/nervous/anxious/sleepless if I start thinking about it before I go to bed I literally cannot sleep, so I try to not think about it so much and just relax before I have it. I am still taking my daily supplements of vitamins and Arnica pellets SEVERAL times a day. I was at work and a customer saw me taking them and pulled some out of her own purse and told me how absolutely amazing they are! I am excited to see the effects of these supplements but at the same time I am not underestimating my recovery or pain to be endured afterwards, especially with the breast augmentation. Also I am not looking forward to wearing the "faja" and tabla (foam board/tummy board), which is the tight compression garment that needs to be worn a minimum of 3 months after a lipo/bbl to help the skin stick back together. I am giving myself a year to notice all the true results since it will definitely be a long process and not an overnight miracle. I'm rambling but so far I am excited and just getting together pictures to show my surgeon of what I want to look like or to inspire him.

Super now ! My breast augmentation was done us glandular so it was not as painful and my nose is only a clogged discomfort. Now the lipo is another freaking issue. Worst pain of my life is the drainage massages and compression garments you have to wear for at least 3 months.

22 days! Can I even say more? I am finally getting the nervous feeling I have been expecting since I booked my appointment in March. I went to Walmart to shop for the stuff I will be bringing, like my the front-close bras, Arnica gel, bath wipes (like baby wipes but for your whole body instead of showering) which I will most likely need the first day or two, since I want to feel as comfortable as possible. Let me actually make a list so you guys can reference it as well:
-Arnica gel
-Arnica pellets
-Bath wipes
-Baby wipes (will be getting lipo so I will be wearing a compression garment with a front and back slit GROSS but what can I do...)
-Front close bras, I got Fruit of the Loom which run SUPER small so go to your local store and try them on. I got 5 since I want to be comfortable and not need to re-use until I can wash.
-Headbands (need my hair OUT MY FACE)
-Loose maxi dresses, tank tops, and shorts.
That is all I can think of right now, I am of course taking my cocktail of vitamins (No vitamin E of course) which I will also post later on.
I am just mainly hoping to be as comfortable as I can be and recover fast, which only one of those I can some sort of control over. Please realize this is a surgery which will take MONTHS before you can truly enjoy it, and to burst your bubble completely it will probably be a WHOLE YEAR before you can really see the ultimate results of your surgery. I am planning to unveil my completed look in 2014 and warning those around me to not expect anything spectacular until then. I will return to the states 2 weeks after my surgery swollen, in pain, uncomfortable and worst of all stuck with wearing a compression garment and Styrofoam board to keep my skin tight and smooth after the lipo for at least 3 months after the surgery...great. So I will look worst then when I left and might scare a person or too, and leave most speechless since even though I told them not to expect anything they will anyways.
22 days people! How long until your surgery? Have you started preparing? I am almost packed!
