Day 7 and I feel Great!
$10,999
I went for my 7 day post opp and I feel fantastic. I have not taken my meds yet but I will when I get home. The Dr. feels the wounds look good, my abdomen is looking good with tapes holding/pulling opposite sides of the button.
My binder is what I am having a battle with. I am used to compression but this hinder is interfering with my drain cord inside my skin. Some some reason, when I wrap the binder it alway presses against my lower skin which pinches the drain cord inside (super painful). So i remove it from time to time. Can't wait to take the drain out sheesh!
Next week I go to smooth shapes appointment to get my lymphatic massage. Can't wait to start getting these fluids out. As soon as my drain is taken out I will really be able to go in on my compression garments.

<i>[RS bleep]</i> it's only day 4!
[RS bleep]! [RS bleep]!! [RS bleep]!!! I feel freaking pregnant, I feel bloated. This is truly worse than my C-Section procedures!!
I am so inconvenienced I can't even sit up on my own. I stay drugged up and feel drugged up.
Sometimes the compression garment feels unbearable. I have to loosen it from time to time.
Then the drain. Whose bright idea is this? Sorry soft but durable and then when my husband strips it to release blood clots I want to punch him. I have gotten mad at him for allowing me do this. Never mad at myself because im the one who wanted to be the baddie.
There are times I have felt like I should have just not comeback and deal with this much pain and discomfort. Can you imagine that? You know how Lame must be for wanting to go through this whole length just to flaunt?
I keep naming celebs in me heard who had work done and I think, did she do this too? Dang was she this desperate??
I am so judging myself right now. I thought I wanted a boob job just to complete my badassness. BUT with this? I am super sure I will NEVER undergo any other cosmetic surgery. I think I'm done.

I am scared as hell. So scared. I have told my...
I am scared as hell. So scared. I have told my husband where to find everything and am basically preparing for if I don't make it back to life. Oh my goodness! I am just torn! I have had my second baby and I decided that I am done having kids and could not wait to get it done when I was pregnant. I told myself, nothing would stop me.
I am sure this is a natural feeling. I will just not think about it and take each step at a time. I mean I have had 2 C-sections (we all have) for goodness sakes, why am I so terrified. Anyway, I'll take before pics and try to document as thoroughly as I can.
Ultimately I can not wait to get snatched!

I felt the same way and did the same thing... I was afraid I wouldn't wake up from surgery, wouldn't see my kids again, etc... I just kepy praying and asking God to allow me to see my family again. When I woke up from surgery I was thankful!! I had TT & BBL together so surgery was the easy part. The recovery however has been a real challenge. I am 13 days post-op. Healing is a slow process. I also had lipo in several areas, which is so very painful for me. I wish you the best with your surgery and recovery. Take it easy and let your hubby or someone assist you with everything.
Hey doll. I am just reading your comment now. Wow you are a champ. It is so hard dealing with the TT alone not to mention BBL. Also had lipo done around my waist. Can you image some people do the full mommy makeover and get boobs done too? Unbelievable.
You are right the surgery was easy, the recovery is the hardest part! I have 2 babies and my sons are super active and they want mommy all the time. I can no longer breast feed because of all these meds I'm taking. But I can't wait see my banging body come to shape tho.
How are you doing now?

How long after your consultation, were you given a surgery date?
There was an available date in less than 3 weeks
Ok that wasn't bad. I'm thinking about going Dr. Okoro, his work look great on Instagram. I want a BBL and TT.
Yes he really is in high demand. I have gone to about 5 consults about my TT which 3 of them was him. Because I was just too scared to take action: now that I have, the recovery process is hard but I finally did it.
Congratulations and Thank you so much for responding. Take care hun
Dr. Okoro is amazing. He did my breast implants and I will be going back for a full tummy tuck, lipo around my wait back and bra area and tummy, and have my highs liposuctioned as well.
You will not be disappointed if you go with him for your surgeries. He loves his patients.
