Pre-Op Today.....13 Days to Go! - Ireland, IE

UPDATED FROM nomorefear

15 days post

15 days PO today!

Well today makes it 15days post op, I think that my whole TT experience has been very positive from day one, and ITS don't mean to take away from the pain thst others have experienced, but for me its been very minimal and I am so grateful for that. I am walking straight since surgery eventhough I may not have been walking as fast as I normally would I was still walking straight. I now back to full daily routine minus working out which is starting to agitate me, but I plan to start a gentle routine next Monday and see how it goes (fingers crossed). I'm still eating very clean with high protein, but I have found my apatite has decreased, I have not weighed myself yet, but plan on doing it on Monday......
The swelling starts about mid afternoon and by nightfall I have a nice pot belly, no swelling above incision only below, easy to put up with when I have had such a great TT experience to date. I love my scar and the scar placement and of course my new found BB!.

Well that's pretty much it, I hope my story gives reassurance to anyone who is approaching their surgery date. FYI love the clear silicone sheets. I plan on starting Bio Oil on scar next week too. Happy and positive healing to all. xx

You are super flat and lookin fabulous! I hope my recovery is as good as yours!

October 25, 2013

Aww thank you luv2bmommy, I definitely think I have been super lucky with the way everything has gone to date, especially when I read the difficulties with pain some of the ladies have been experiencing (my heart goes out to them). I am sure your results will be fantastic, you already have a great shape, and when your time comes I will be sending you the positive healing thoughts that have gotten me through! x

October 25, 2013

Awww thanks Doll!

October 26, 2013

You look absolutely perfect! So happy that you are happy!

October 26, 2013

Thanks for the kind words Buffy,how are you these days?

October 30, 2013

Wow. Your surgeon did an amazing job! I looked at your before and you look so awesome. Beautiful work!

October 30, 2013

Thank you for the compliment, I just checked out your review you look amazing and there is no way I'd put 53 on you, way to go! x

October 31, 2013

Thanks. I never get tired of hearing that!

November 6, 2013

your results look awesome already!! I am happy to hear your healing has gone so well, I stay active and eat very clean too so I pray I am as lucky!!!

November 6, 2013

Hi Fitchickmom! thankyou for your comment

November 6, 2013

I wrote alot more in my first reply to you, but it didn't show up (grrrrr). The general gist was that you look amazing even before surgery so I just know your results will be amazing. I do believe that being physically fit before surgery helped with my recovery. I will be thinking of you and look forward to seeing your results! Stay positive and at quite moments when you get a minute to yourself repeat to yourself how amazing the surgery will be and how well you are going to heal. Happy healing. xx

November 6, 2013

November 15, 2013

Morning! How are you doing? Approaching five weeks post op, aren't you? How are you feeling? How is your incision healing? I've been thinking about you and just wanted to check in and say hi :)

November 15, 2013

Sorry, was meant to read Hi and hope you're well :)

November 15, 2013

Hi Snowfly, I am doing great, you are fantastic for checking in with me! (thank you).....never mind me, how you feeling omg you must be so excited and I am excited for you.....you won't know yourself, what is for you now about a week to go (am I right?). You will do great, use the positive reinforcement techniques. Let me know just before you are going in so I can do a wee bit on my end for you!! Remember this is going to be amazing and your results are going to be amazing. xox

November 16, 2013

Oh, Thank you for that! I will let you know, and I so appreciate the good vibes from oceans away!! I'm sorry, I have to ask you again the name of that author and his book, please... Glad to read you're doing so well!

November 16, 2013

Just under two weeks to go :) Nov 27 is my day, and I AM so excited. And nervous, a little scared, too. You know. The whole gambit :)

November 16, 2013

So that's next Wednesday week, I have it in my calendar now!. I still remember how nervous I was and then then about two days before a calm just came over me and it stayed, it was so weird, but I was just ready. I hope the same happens with you

November 16, 2013

I can't believe this.....I had written so much more, but it didn't show...(not the first time this has happened, oh I'm soooo cross....grrrrrr. Anyway the book is 'The Power Of Your Subconscious Mind' by Dr. Joseph Murphy. I love this book and use the methods in it all the time. I am so looking forward to your results I just know its going to be wonderful!. Keep in touch Mrs. [RS bleep]

November 16, 2013

Thank you! I will set my mind along those intentions then. Sometimes that really works for me :)

November 16, 2013

Yes, I've done that, too, but invariably it's My fault, lol! Great to know that this site may also be conspiring against me ;) Ok, I've written down Again on my latest list. (I can't even tell you how many partially filled lists are at the bottom of my shopping bags and I don't find them until next shopping day :p) Slowly getting organized! Thanks so much for caring, I really like the thought that someone so far away will be meditating a bit for me

November 28, 2013

I haven't read this....but I am TOTALLY on board with this intention stuff.. positivity is VERY powerful.

Feeling very relaxed and ready

nomorefearOctober 9, 2013

Today I'm feeling very relaxed and ready for this positive life change. I decided on some me time now that the house is cleaned, the laundry done and the fridge stocked.....so I took myself off to the beautician's and got myself waxed from head to toe (well from eyebrows to lower legs!). I am scheduled for surgery at 2pm tomorrow, so by 5ish I will be on the flat side (Oorah.....)
