2 weeks post-op

I'm already so happy and I am still completely covered in steri strips at 2 weeks post-op. Everything appears to be sized the way I hoped it would be.

I think the scariest part of any surgery is the unknown. I was never in true pain after the surgery. I was terrified of the ride home because where I would be after the surgery was 45 minutes-1 hour away from the surgery center. I really don't remember much of the ride home.

I do remember being ready to use my legs to help my weight, pretty much right when I was allowed to get up after being in the recovery room. I was a little dizzy on the elevator ride down (I was in a wheelchair, obviously). And I was a little concerned I would become ill, but I never did. I did receive nausea meds before and after surgery, as well as zantac before surgery, and demerol before I left the surgery center. I took my pain meds regularly for the first 36 hours or so and then I was able to go longer stretches before I would get uncomfortable and take pain meds. I really stayed up on taking them so that the pain never became intolerable.

I am so excited to see the changes as the strips fall off and I continue to heal!

My first consultation was in March and I was on the fence with doing a lift or the complete Mommy Makeover. A friend referred me but ultimately I chose this doctor because I was consistently impressed by the before ans after photos or his breast lift and/or tummy tuck patients.

I'm wondering about the whole scheduling deal b/c now I'm going to do the surgery six months later than originally planned. I decided that I'd rather take my Christmas Break to heal.

Anyway, the surgeon's office says to usually give at least 6 weeks. I'll be putting 20% down, so of course like anything else, the longer I can hold on to my 2 grand or so, the better.
