Ok, now without the garmet
$10,000
These were taken last night, with the same bathing suit as my before pictures. I'm excited because things look great even though I'm still very swollen.

Yesterday was a ROUGH one
Let's start with the positive: Everything is looking great! On Monday, my stitches and my drains were removed, which I'm so happy about because I would drop those bad boys often, causing crazy pain so yes, I'm a happy camper!
Tuesday was a whole different story ... Emotionally I broke down. I believe it came on due to the combination of not having had BM since last Tues, which my doctor said may be due to the medication, so I had not taken them in almost 48 hours, along with my inner arms and thighs having the worst burning sensation, and the final straw came when I swelled up so bad that my skin felt like it couldn't hold it making me feel claustrophobic and hot in my garment until I finally broke down and CRIED! After a good cry, I took my meds, slipped a few ice packs under my arms and between my legs, and took a much needed nap.
And when I awoke, the swelling had reduced, I felt like a million dollars, AND and I had a BM!! So the day ended great after all.

Awww.... hang in there! You are looking fabulous!
Thank you, your time is coming quick.
I know... 2 weeks from today! Its crazy... but I'm so ready to stop thinking/worrying about it and just get it done! Any regrets?
None, unless you count wishing I had received the BA so I'd be almost over all pain. But I don't think I could have handled it. But no, so far no regrets.
Yay! I'm so glad to hear that. How are you feeling about the lipo on inner thighs? Worth it?
Well that's a good question... my legs are so swollen that I'm technically bigger than I was, but knowing that is just due to swelling and not the fat that existed before, I am confident that it will be worth it.
You are going to have great results. I had a full lift and implants last month with Dr. Steely, and I know without a doubt that you are in good hands with him. It gets better every day. You're going to look just fabulous
Thank you, I am already extremely pleased. He and his staff are really great. Thank you for continuing to support him and letting us newbies know of your experience. It really helps reassure us that we're making the right decision. This website is great.
You look amazing!! Was the $13000 the whole fee? I hope you don't mind me asking.
Yeah, I need to double check to make figure more accurate but that's a pretty close estimate. It may be a little more if you include my overnight hospital stay ($1100/night)
You look great, hopefully the worst of it is behind you.
Thank you, I'm hoping so too!
I forgot to mention, I believe the onset of the swelling was because I went full fledged grocery shopping after my doctor's appointment, so it was brought on myself by my own actions (not due to drains being removed). Ladies and Gents, don't bring on too much or be warned.
