Hoping for a more refreshed look after a face and neck lift. 3 more days....yikes
My dr thinks I should wait four or five years to do my eyes, I’m fine with that. They’ve always been my best feature, and I wanna keep it that way. I appreciate that he isn’t doing the hard sell.
I will post before pics after my surgery. Honestly, I feel like I look terrible , and it’s baffling to me why anyone would think otherwise. A random stranger came up to me in a bar last week and told me she thought i was beautiful. I can’t see it. Sometimes I like what I look like I’m pictures but the ones I took today..... whoa!

I have a facelift, browlift and CO2 laser scheduled for June and that is just a couple of months away so I am getting myself geared up for this endeavor. Please let us know how you are doing and pictures to follow your progress afterwards. Will be praying for you.

Let me mirror back to what you said

blacking out your eyes & 1/2 your face helps none of us.
It helped me---
So, speak for yourself, kpskate.

By the way, I don't see YOUR picture. Talk about hypocrisy.

I am flagging admin to remove your offensive and disrespectful obnoxious comment. How dare you try to shame or admonish this woman because her level of exposure does not meet your personal criterion. That is a choice each woman gets to make for herself without judgement--that is how we feel safe to share.

Flagging admin...

Piece of cake. I’ve had no issues other than a little pain around my ears. I’m going to have to force myself to take it easy. I had a friend stay over with me last night but it wasn’t really necessary. I did a little jig for her morning before she left. I’m sleeping in a lazy boy chair. I picked it up second hand last year when I had my breast reduction. It s big and ugly but holy crap. It’s comfy. I also use it when I’m marking papers.
I’m on a prophylactic antibiotic and pain killers. Taking th pain killer a littl less often and only taking one instead of two.
I only had a facelift and neck. Dr. Said he didn’t need to liposuction my neck. He said there was only a little fat (shocking) that he could remove manually.
Had a smoothie yesterday for dinner
Not that hungry. No nausea though.
All good.

So glad for you. I'm sure I had tons of lipo and 5 inches of extra skin to take off! I figure the worse looking you are, the more they have to do! So just proves you were pretty hot to begin with!! :-)

Lol. I had a tummy tuck 4 years ago...and now theres more! And very UNEVEN. But ok when I stand up. Now the only thing I hate about me is my arms. But after this facelift, which was worse than my TT, I'll just let my arms be huge...and make sure they're TANNED! Post more pics beautiful girl! And quit blocking out your eyes!!!! Lol

Funny how most men don’t obsess about their bodies the way we do. That’s our cross to bear. For men, it’s their status. We are victims of evolutionary psychology. I’ll post some at month one. I’m doing really well. It’s been a breeze.

You're right. Men don't obsess like women do. Can't wait to see your photos & I'm glad you're having an easy time of it. Please don't forget your stool softeners. lol Sad but true. You'll need them.

I only took narcotic pain meds for two days, so it wasn’t an issue. Plus I was using an inulin clear fibre to offset the damage to my gut flora by the antibiotics. All good. Seriously, not one issue. Same when I had my breast reduction. Hardy prairie stock.
Re occasional swelling you encountered, answers on here suggested compression head wrap will help to alleviate it.

Nice! You've done it. I was just like you. I didn't need to rest afterwards. I still have some of my pain pills. 4 Days after my surgery I was working from home. I'm glad you're doing well.
