2 weeks 1 day and I have a bra on! A real one people!
WORTH IT$6,680
Ok! Today is 2 weeks and a day PO and I have an actual bra on. Like, a real one.
I feel so much better today..I finally had to lay myself down and do nothing for 2 days bc of the swelling..I tend to think I can do more than I can..and ouch! There is no load of laundry worth my $6680 results..not one stitch. My husband can go naked under his suit b4 I'm gna do that again! Haha! Ladies, seriously..take my advice..don't do things that u think u can..even if u feel like it. I'm the type that needs to b up and doing for my babies and husband..all the time. I finally had to let Brian win and put myself to bed. I watched movies and drank (saying this almost gags me) water for 2 days and I SWEAR..I lost 8 pounds of swell hell in those 2 days. I thought my doctor friend wasn't as smart as his diploma was making him out to be..apparently, he's a doctor and I am not..bc, water and laying around, really did work. I'm fine with laying around if I am alone..so, I even let my babies spend the night with my parents..that didn't even make me a selfish mommy..this surg didn't either! (I know...moms, we deserve it! As long as we take care of our families and love them like crazy..we deserve to be comfortable and happy with ourselves!) I'm gna post pics of today..my boobs were done years ago so this was not part of the surgery I had..they are just out of control. Completely out of control. (Double D's and spilling over, out of control) So, look past the too big girls..and the swell hell (which is still there) and know tht today..2 weeks 1 day, I'm almost standing up..I had to put some spanx on after this pic so don't be thinking I'm gettin dressed already..I'm not! Haha! (Pics can be deceiving and I'm all about truth!)

Woah, that definitely sounds like the garment from hell. Oh boy I'm definitely not looking forward to the recovery process. I could imagine your pain from your oh so vivid details. lol (I'm laughing because again your sooo funny. Not because your in pain). Oh man I would definitely be taking those med's like clock work. I won't even attempt to be Super Woman. Ouch! but like you said your gonna be looking HOT in the next few months so it'll be worth it :-) That's what I tell my self when I have these thoughts of what the hell am I thinking. I shouldn't even do it to myself but then when I get in front of a mirror or sit down and have this sagging crap rest on my lap, I think ok this definitely needs to be gone. lol
Haha! I swear to u..the pain is almost non-existant! I'm not tough by any means but..they give u meds fr a reason! The things that drive me nuts are the garment, not being able to take a bath and soak (bc it seems like it would b so nice to do), not being able to stand up (which makes my boobs look saggy and they r not bc I paid for them not to be), the lower back ache, and the swelling (which isn't painful it's just annoying bc of the garment and the fact that u can't see what's goin on as quickly as I would like)
It's more "annoying" than anything..just..seriously pisses me off at times..but, there is nothing that compares to being able to make a puppet show out of my extra skin..and belly button...that is a talent no one on this eart should ever hve to openly admit to having..ever. Haha! (Unless u r comfortable with extra skin and some women r..which is amazing and wonderful..! I am just not..!!)
It's beyond worth it and is easier than the horror stories I was told..but much more annoying than I thought..the better u feel the more irritating it is to not b able to just..do!
U r gna look hot and every time u sit to pee and look down and DO NOT see all that action sittin in ur lap..ur gna remember me telling u ITS WORTH IT!!! (And now, the next time u pee..u will think of ur crazy new friend from Oklahoma named Sumer..and u will giggle!) haha
I'm not even on the toilet yet and I could just imagine it. Lol your so awesome :-p
Hey, passing by wondering how your doing. I hope all is well :-)
I'm doin much better today! The "death trap" that I'm wearing is getting more tolerable..as the swelling goes down the garment of death starts to fit a bit better..I can't wait to be able to stand!!!! Haha! How r u and when is ur surg date??? I'm excited for u!
Uh oh, skinny waist is in the making. Glad swelling isn't so bad and garment from hell is easing up. Well, my surgery is scheduled for August 18th but still don't have a pre op appointment scheduled yet. The DR assistant forgot about me before she hauled her self away on vacation. Lol I called the office to find out what happened and no wonder I haven't heard from her but the gentleman that answered took my name and said he'll get back to me with info. Let's see when that'll happen. I'll call back tomorrow to see what's up because I need to start preparing. If its not going to happen on the 18th I don't want to turn into a mad woman for no reason. Lol
What in the heck??!! Forgt to schedule u??? I'm just seeing this btw. I'm too impatient! Luckily, when I decided to do this (it was a surprise/gift) my girls/mom had already scheduled my consult..and the surgeon had already performed 2 breast augs on me prior to this..and the girls at his office are SO sweet and hilarious..that they called me the day after I had scheduled the 1st apt..and told me they were gna open up a Friday for me (which never happens) so they could get me in earlier. I was able to get in within a few weeks! I had zero time to freak out! Haha

11 days PO and feelin like I'm in shackles and chains!! Haha
So, 11 days PO and let me tell u ladies and gents..If I were a song right now, it would b a Country song and it would b slow and sad.. This is brutal..pain? Nope..none. that's my HONEST response to the questions most commonly asked..I've not had pain (hardly) at all tho..I'm lookin to win a T-Shirt that spouts off about how "tough" I am bc I took "no meds"...bull-poop! I have been given pain meds and I have used them according to the dosage prescribes. I'm not one to have an opinion over meds or no meds..everyone is entitled to their own opinion on the subject but as fr me, I'm what some would call a "weinie" so..show me the pills!!! Fabulous! Back to original rant on the brutality of the situation..the flippin GARMENT. Holy wow..holy cow...holy poop...holy moly choco poly...so dumb this one. It's torture and I believe that a very very skinny chic who never needed plastic surgery in her life..invented this stupid thing bc no way in hades would a woman or man, who has ever ever been thru this, would ever think "ooohhhh...I have a perfect design..death! We will design death in spandex form". Ok ok..it just isn't fun to wear and I had lipo too and apparently the garment (which extends from boobs to calves) is used for some bla bla bla medical something and I TOTALLY respect doc's orders..so wear it I do..but burn it, I will!
I will be posting pics of today and for all u girls out there about to have this surg or on day 1-10 and not quite to day 11..please know that these pics were HARD. I tried to stand and even perked my boobs up several times to help the pic look glam..then I thought, I CANT DO THIS..I can't be posting false PO advertiment, girls will b so so sad when they see them and feel like a beaches whale on day 10..DISCLAIMER: I feel like a BEACHED WHALE who just got dumped by a super hot Great White Shark and started her period on the same day and drowned her sorrows on..penut butter and jelly fish snadwhiches while watching a old Shark week marathon just for the sake of MAYBE catching a glimpse of the [RS bleep] that left her for a sexier dolphin from the Bahamas..yep..that's how I feel..but, I'm gna be lookin so hot in a few months so..bring on the PB and J! ;)
