I've always had this annoying...

WORTH IT$2,700

I've always had this annoying "pooch" on my stomach and a back roll on the bra line. I'm at 146 lbs right now, used to be at 120 lbs. Not looking to lose weight, just feel a little more comfortable in my clothing.

I had my vaser lipo done yesterday! My appointment...

Chekie
I had my vaser lipo done yesterday! My appointment was at 11am, however I did not get it started until 1:30pm. While waiting, we watched "Yes Man" on TV in the waiting room. I know they had someone before me, so maybe that person was late to their appointment -- but anyways! They didn't have a bra that would fit me, so my breasts were covered with a blanket. My husband was just as nervous as I was. One man came in and took pictures. The woman nurse came and gave me a pill with water. I thought he was the doctor, but he was actually a nurse. The doctor came after a while and marked me up. Said goodbye to my husband and they walked me over to the operating room. They started the IV and put up a sheet in front of me so I could not see. I started to relax (I'm pretty sure because of the IV) because I know for a fact I kept shaking out of being so nervous. I kept apologizing to the doctor and nurses. Started to feel some kind of needles or something. It was kind of uncomfortable. Once it got up to my side, it was extremely comfortable. That's all I remember! Next thing I know, I'm waking up in another bed with a very sweet nurse helping me. She helped me put my husband's pajama bottoms over the garter and a tank top. She then wheeled me out with my husband as he went to get our car. I fell asleep on the ride home. Once we got home, I took my antibiotic at 8pm and kept sleeping. Woke up at 1am, used the bathroom and laid back down. My husband and I decided to play a game of Left for Dead 2 on XBOX 360. Then we fell asleep for about an hour and a half. Woke up at 4am and took another antibiotic with a pain pill. I'm bleeding quite a lot on one side. Even with the garter on, I must say I'm really excited!! Everything looks so tiny compared to before. Before surgery, I was at 143.8 lbs. Once home, I weighed 151.1 lbs. Weighed myself a little while ago, I'm at 149 something lbs. Again, I don't care how much I weigh, as long as I'm a little smaller! :) Definitely going to post up a few pictures soon. I have an ultrasound scheduled for Monday.

Went for my ultrasound massage. Taking off the bandaging wasn't too bad. The ultrasound was okay, just annoying. I love the way things look so far. Posted some new pictures :)

They have a special for vaser lipo $1800. did you do that and the price went up once you got the lipo?

It was $1800 for the full front and $1800 for the full back. I opted for full front and half top back ($900). They waived the office fee for me. The rep who kept trying to force me to do this would call about 3-4 times a days, trying to work out deals for me. I'm sure she just desperately wanted business (or commission). The office fee was supposed to be $400.
