43yrs Old, Mom of 3 ready for my TT, BA, Lipo- Grand Rapids, MI

I am from Ontario but am having my surgery in Michigan. I have attended 5 consultations to get me to this point so far. My surgery is on the 30th and is already paid for. I am having a TT, BA and lipo to flanks and inter medial thighs. (sorry I'm new so still learning the short forms & lingo). We live about 3 hours away from the PS so we (my husband & I) will be spending the night before (24th wedding anniversary) and the night of the SX in the hotel that is attached to the PS facility. I am supposed to be getting a phone call from the nurse 1 week pre-op to discuss the SX and go over any questions & concerns I may have. The day we arrive I am to pick up my pain meds. I have been reading lots of great stories and love all the information I have been gathering. I have made arrangements for a hospital bed rental for the 1st week post op. My husband has taken the first week off work to be with me and help out. I haven't taken any before photos yet but I will soon and will update them.

Ok so it took a lot to get my nerve up to take these pics. My poor little deflated boobies are even smaller when I see them in the pictures LOL. So my surgery is in 10 days (wait do I count the day of surgery?) I was really excited but I think I'm getting some butterflies now! My hospital bed is on hold and will be delivered the day after my surgery. I'm a little nervous about the 3 hour drive home after the day of surgery. My husband said he'll pack up a bunch of pillows and a blanket for the car ride home. He's being so great to me so far listening to all my stories. So I do not take any pills or meds for anything at all, not even vitamins. There's a lot of talk here about people taking vitamins and stuff. I'm open to any advice for things that might help me out. I've already bought some comfy pjs and tank tops and will be getting a couple new sports bras. For sure I'll be getting some stool softeners (I already have some constipation issues).

Hope this goes through....just got hit by a huge thunder storm! Thanks to everyone so far for your welcomes and hi's!

So just got my pre-op call from the nurse. I was surprised when she asked if I get motion sickness. I laughed and told her yes....severely!!! They're giving me a patch to put behind my ear the night before sx, said it'll help so I don't get sick from the anesthesia. They're calling in my meds to be picked up the night before. I have my list of items to bring for the hotel for the stay the day of my sx. This is going to be the longest week of my life......hahaha I'm sure I'll change my mind after sx. I'm loving (obsessing more like it) looking at everyone's before/after pics and videos and reading stories.
