39 Year Old Mother of 3 Looking Forward to a Fabulous 40 Body - Metairie, LA
ORIGINAL POST
I'm 39 years old 3 kids 3 c-sections so Im sure...
WORTH IT
I'm 39 years old 3 kids 3 c-sections so Im sure you can image the amount of skin left hanging. I'm super excited I am scheduled for Nov. 16. 2016 but my first visit was wonderful. Dr. Sand addressed my concerns right there on the spot. I was most impressed with Dr. Sand drawings of my current body shape & what my new body would look like after the TT. Im Excited, Nervous and Ready all at the same time!

I made my visit to the surgery center today everything was clean and peaceful. The only obstacle I had to face was a double finger stick. Other than that I am ready togo! I'll take this weekend to prepare Thanksgiving Dinner for my family and my Oldest son will take care of the turkey. I keep you guys updated.

I had my surgery at HOSC on 10/4. They are wonferful!! I had my TT & lipo with Dr. Khoobehi. I am 16 years ahead of you but love the results!! It is still a slow recovery with all the lipo I had done too. My best friends are my body pillows from Dollar General!!! It's hard to get comfy & they have been my lifesaver! I also bought the Flexi brand body shaper from Walmart, the ones that have an unfinished hemline on the thigh & a silky feel. I really like them. The compression garments were a nightmare for me. All of it rubbed me raw. I still have the new, extra one I never used. I think it's an XL or XXL. I will check. If that's your size & you want mine, let me know. If you have questions please let me know since we are neighbors!

@sehoward thanks I'm sure I will be able to use that also thanks for all the information I need to know everything that's helps the healing process

I can't wait to see your after pics!!! Being much younger than me, you will have more skin elastisity & will heal faster.

sehoward I will need that Garmet how can get it from you? I can meet you today or tomorrow just let me know
November 21, 2016
I work around the corner from HOSC. I need to check the size for you. They look so small even though mine is either an XL or XXL. My cell is 450-2486. If you want it this evening we can meet up.---Suzy Howard

I also have unopened arnica tablets & the topical gel that you can have. I went overboard ordering it.
November 21, 2016
I will be at Dr Khoobehi's office tomorrow at 4:30 for an Endermology treatment. He's on the corner of Vets & Cleary.

Most likely I will be headed home earlier today trying to finish preparing "Thanksgiving Dinner" before my surgery so if possible I can come to your job or whatever is most convent for you. Just let me I'm headed to get my nails done on airline and clearview, then Walmart to pick up last min things.
November 21, 2016
I work until 5. The garment is at my house in St. Rose. Is your surgey tomorrow? I work in Lakeway 3, Causeway & 6th Street.

November 21, 2016
Yes it's tomorrow for 7am but I could ask my sister to meet up with you
November 21, 2016
That's fine. Give her my cell #. I will put the garment. In my truck. Do you want the unopened arnica too?
November 21, 2016
I know you are excited!! It will be a breeze after 3 c-sections!! You will wake up with a beautiful, flat stomach!!

November 22, 2016
Sehoward you have been wonderful.. I'm worried about the pain though what did your doctor give you? Also my sister's name is Ashley I have given her your number as well.. wish me luck
November 22, 2016
I know its late but you can call me if you have questions. I got percocets for my pain. You will do great. I needed an additional week for pain meds & Dr. Khoobehi wrote me the prescription. It's not any worse than c-sections. Ghr lipo is the most uncomfortable. After the 1st & 2nd week, you will be fine. I'm so much older & I'm not as tough as I used to be!!!! Call me if you have any questions. Prayers your way tomorrow!!! Xoxoxo Suzy

Suzy I am feeling a little better but I can't take the smell urine I smell so pissy lol my sister and I washed the part between the legs and use a blow dryer to dry I hope the pain doesn't get any worse than it is if so I will be looking for those meds. I will keep you posted. Kendra

I know it's rough. The garment sucks. I couldn't pee right through that hole either. Pee went everywhere. I told Ashley to pack you all over with Kotex!! I drained everywhere for a couple of days. You have to make sure that you walk around the house. It's hard to stand up straight but make yourself do it. When do you go back to the doctor? What pain meds are you taking? I promise it will get better. The day after is the worst. Your stomach looks awesome!!


November 23, 2016
I'm so in need of stronger meds my muscles are killing me I'm still pretty numb below but I don't how that's going to last I hope forever lol don't need to feel anymore pain
November 23, 2016
Omg!! That's all the dr prescribed?? Have you called him? Call him & tell him you need real pain killers!! You poor thing!!!

November 23, 2016
I went there today but I was ok just when I came home the amount of pain was like OMG all of a sudden.
November 24, 2016
