My dad died 4 days before I went to do it the first time. In my state of stress I could not do it so I postponed until August. Hopefully this will be a better time for me. I will be doing 12 areas of lipo and then filling in some areas on my buttocks that have a hole on the side. Widening my hips a bit. I already have a big butt so I don't need a lot of fat transferred there. Just a slight lift to keep it firm.

First off, I'm so sorry to hear about your father’s passing, my sincere condolences to you and your family. 

I'm glad that you joined us to share your journey and I hope that you find lots of support  here. Also, you can  check-in here to garner more support and maybe meet some recovery buddies. 

Are you telling anyone else that you are having this surgery or will RealSelf be your only support system? Are you comfortable sharing some before photos and then, of course, progress photos so we can follow along and see your results unfold?

Hopefully no one dies or gets sick or anytging drastic happens. I hope the universe lets me have this surgery and helps me look my very best. So tired of not wearing things because my stomach is in the way. Sure, I could starve myself and lose the weight but then I look like a stick. I want to look amazing. I'm so scared but so excited. Praying it all works out.

I have been drinking vitamins and water and eating right. No smoking, no drinking, doing exercise. I did have a terrible headache today bc of all the stress with my jobs but I am trying my best to stay healthy and happy so my body goes through a smooth transition. I am scared but I am ready. I have waited 20 years and an extra 6 months! It's now or never. i hope they call me tomorrow so I can know what time the surgery is Monday. ???????? it's in the morning but not too early.
