about 25 lbs gone
I’m surprised how fine I’m actually doing. Yesterday when I woke up from surgery it was rough. I have an allergy to dilaudid which makes pain management a little more complicated for me. When they moved me from recovery I was crying the pain was so bad. It felt like a combination of my skin was burning and like someone had just beat me with a baseball bat, the feeling was super intense. I have a high tolerance for pain (two kids naturally by voice), I rated my pain at a 9, my husband was shocked. They have me an oral OxyContin and that quickly changed. Because of how much fluid they pumped in I have two drains coming from the back. Im wearing a surgical bra and because I’m 6’0 tall I have 2 binders. I have a decent amount of blood coming from the drain area so I have a pad there. As soon as the drains are removed I have a full knee to shoulder surgical compression garment I’ll change too. I slept on the recliner last night and I’m really quite comfortable as long as I’m not moving. I needed help standing up this morning because the pain meds wore off over night but I’m moving well. When I sit down or stand up there is a very sharp pain at the incisions that is a combo of deep bruise and burn. I’m super excited to see what this looks like in the upcoming weeks. I had my surgeon take pics so as soon as he send them I’ll have them posted! Attached is what some of the bruising looked like last night.
Taking Down the Shelf
This will be my second procedure, and will be a two step process. In Jan 2018 I had a full abdominoplasty removing all the fat and hanging skin from my front. Now we are debulking my back and then I will have the extended abdominoplasty in a couple months. I have a lot of fat in and above my butt. I’ve had this shelf as long as I can remember. Seriously you could set a drink on it. So July 31st I’m having lipo from my bra line to my butt and around my hips. I love my surgeon because he’s safe but aggressive, and so I can not wait to see how many liters he removes and how many inches it takes off!
