So my surgery never happened...
$5,000
I had a death in the family and financially things just fell apart. However my mom is now 4 years post op with Dr Lima and she looks great...however she says has a few deformities in the hips and back. She's still happy and not sure how abnormal it is. Honestly my mom was a someone who optimally needed 2 or 3 rounds. Her breast reductions she is happy with. Still perky an very natural. All in all she is extremely happy with her results and it was a life changing experience. She's a brand new woman.

Purchased my flight and moved up surgery to 1/4/17!
So the tickets were much cheaper all of a sudden the first week of January so I contacted Dr. Lima and asked if we can move up the date to January 4th. He said of course! So I bought my flight united airlines heading out 1/1 at 11:55pm and arriving 1/2 at 5am. He asked I be there 2 days before. And now I have to look at recovery homes because my mom is the only person available to watch my girls. If anyone has any recommendations let me know! I heard of Janet's but just wanted to hear what you ladies suggest. :)

Omg I'm having sx on the 4th too! And so is someone else, can't remember her realself name but we text. I wanted to do the week before but it is significantly cheaper the first week by like a few hundred dollars so of course I went with the cheaper lol. We're both staying at Janet's if that helps and Janet's recovery house provides you with everything so you just have to bring ensure, wipes, and pads. I wonder why they asked you to come two days prior though because I'm getting there the 3rd at like 8ish at night and I'm going first on the 4th but they said they'll run my labs that night when I get there so idk why you were told to come two days before hmm

115 days to go! I need advice!
That's a little under 4 months but it's is surely approaching much quicker than I had anticipated. I have my days where I think I don't need the surgery but I promised myself I'm going to do it..... Soo now I have to start preparing for surgery and my travel right? I don't know what to start purchasing for my travel and recovery while at DR. And I've read a lot of you take supplements to prep for surgery. If anyone can give me some advice or can direct me to a rs sisters page that has all the info I would really appreciate it because now I can't find anything I'm referring to.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Vitamin c, folic acid, iron, b complex, and geritol liquid is what Janet told me to start taking prior to and to have the same for after sx. When it gets closer like January 1st, you can do bromelain and arnica tablets in addition to speed up recovery. But otherwise, that should be it on the supplement front in preparation
