Hello Ladies and Happy New Year! Just some few...

Hello Ladies and Happy New Year!

Just some few items to summarize, it's been a while since I've last updated. It was a busy December month!

7 weeks PO
- I'm standing completely straight
- Swelling is still apparent in the evening especially when it's a busy day
- I still wear my CG from my PS in the evening/bed time
- I haven't "officially" been released to work out, but I've started some light dancing (with my daughter) on the xbox kinect (dance2)
- Lipo'd areas (side and front) are more sensitive rather than sore, but healing and feeling a difference (for the better) every day
- I get a little stiff in the morning and still "roll" out of bed due to lipo and MR, but that too is getting better each day
- When I swell up I notice more swelling on my left side of my tummy
- Belly button is simply cute, I love how it healed, you can't see the incision (will try and post a close up next time)
- TT incision is really perfectly, since I am filipino, my scar is darker. But i'll inquire with the PS on my follow-up for recommendations. The incision is very low and perfect for low rise jeans
- I'm using the silicone strip that is washable, supposed to wear 24+ hours at a time. It's great but I wonder if the disposable strips are better? (you need to wash and let sry before reapplying)
- There's still some numbness below and a little above the belly button
- My stretch marks are still there, but it's not a bog concern, it covers nicely
- Breast are so much softer each day, I believe they have dropped nicely; however nipples are super sensitive..LOL
- My breast size was from a 36A/b to a 34 DD OR 36C (400 cc Natrelle silicone)
- Still can't completely reach above my head without feeling the tightness of the abs, so I still use my step stool.. :)
- I've been completely off meds at 4 weeks and transitioned to advil when needed and normally on a really busy on my feet day
- I haven't gained any weight but lost a few pounds, HOWEVER when I swell I can bumped up to an additional 2 lbs.
- I can fit into a size 6 losely, but I haven't hit the gym yet so my personal goal is one size less by my April birthday
- I've noticed I can't still for very long, I have to stand up and stretch my body. I tend to feel stiff after a few hours on the computer
- My confidence has boosted up higher on the richter scale..LOL, I love my hubby

Overall I'm beyond happy with my results, no issues and excellent incisions.

Thank you to all the beautiful and supportive ladies online for your positive feedback. It truly helped me when I most needed the support of someone who understood how I was feeling throughout the mommy makeover process.

Hi ladies! I'm feeling so much better each day,...

Hi ladies! I'm feeling so much better each day, can't believe how much my body and MIND have changed since Day 1. Hubby will take photos tonight, unfortunately it's been so busy and I've been so busy, by the time I remind myself to take photos, I'm so swollen at the end of the night.

I'm at 135 on a good day and hang at 138 on the bad days "swell hell". I'm standing straight, but I have my days when I start to slouch and walk like an old lady, but I know those days are almost at an end.

My next PS check up is Jan 7th and hope I get released to do some minimal gym activity. I'm ready to make more changes to my body for summer 2013!!!

I hope the ladies who recently had their MM to rest....rest...rest... you'll have your ups and down, but in the end, it will all be worth it.

Happy Holidays ladies and Happy Healing!!

I am very lucky to work remotely from home;...

I am very lucky to work remotely from home; however having to sit for long periods of time, my back aches, and my abs aches, more like stiffens. So I stand in from of my computer and type for as long as I can..LOL. I'm sure I look funny in front of hubby, but it's the only option I think I have right now.

Does anyone get that too?

I'm healing well and as much as I tell y'all that I'll take a photo, I feel so swelled up my belly button is going to "pop" off. Trying to stay positive mentally and await for each recovering day.

Choosing my Plastic Surgeon: My husband and I live in North Dallas. We have researched several really great plastic surgeons locally and found about 3 of them. I chose mine based on his interactions with me during BOTH consultations in 2009 and again 2012. I didn't feel rushed or as if I was there prior and knew all the answers. He made me feel comfortable by answering all my questions and especially my husbands questions too. He made sure I felt good about our meeting and not confused or worried from medications, procedures, and that I'm freaking out..LOL, he giggled but also comforted me. Aside all of that, he's very experienced and he's a perfectionist. I've seen all of this photos and spoke with a few if this patients too and they all love him in both professional experience and bedside manner.
