Hi, well after "lurking" for quite some time I'm plunging in! First of all I'm a train wreck right now! ???? My surgery is in a month and I'm a bundle of nerves. I'm 5'1 and 214. The good news is I'm healthy under the fat, but my belly must go! Your all so courageous and I commend you for putting yourself first. I just need some sound commentary for those who have went down this path and especially those with my height and weight issues. I have so many questions but I'm not sure I have a lot of answers. I need help. And I have no idea what to buy....

I've added my "before" so we can gauge my results. I'm praying to be healthy and have this waist "snatched"!

I can't wait to see your results. I remember all the excitement and nervousness I felt leading up to my big day. Just try and get some rest and get ready to take the plunge. IT'S SOOOOO WORTH IT!!!!

I can't tell anyone reading how much it has helped me to read the numerous journeys! I actually forget to post, but waiting is not very exciting. Each day is an extension of the previous day because it's still not "operation" day. Now that is exciting!
Anyway, I have my mostly everything I need and I'm ready. I'm going to get food over the next few days, along with fresh fruits and veggies. I don't have enough loose clothes so I'm going to have to shop this weekend. Does anyone have any tips for sleeping in the recliner for the next few weeks? I'm not sure which position is best, back or side? I don't want aggregate swelling.

I am having major panics, I too spend ages reading everyones journeys while waiting on T-DAY . However now I am panicking that I haven't gor everything done... Christmas shopping , university work, meal plans compression garments and vitamins... its never ending . to make it slightly more stressfull I am having my surgery in Tunisia and only spending eight days there :( I then fly home on the 20th and fly over to Algiers on the 27th for 12 days relax. totally petrified that I may have bitten off ore than I can chew scheduling for December :( I also don't have a recliner but I am hoping plenty pillows will suffice.

Take a deep breath! Get everyone off your mind. As for Christmas , think online shopping. You come first. People will take a gift any day you give it to them. Trust me. Make a list. Low sodium foods. Protein shakes and bars if u eat them. Water. Everything in low areas so u don't have to reach. Get a small tray for food and vitamins.
Body Pillow
Gauze pads
A Loose house dress
Stool softener
Straws
Jello
Apple sauce
Pineapple juice
Smoothies
Palmer oil (for dry
Handheld massager small one for Lipo discomfort
Milk of magnesia for daily intake to help with constipation.
