Breast Reduction, TT with MR and Lipo Flanks, Thighs

I’ve been considering breast reduction for a few years. During pregnancy I gained almost 40 pounds with my son.
My breasts got bigger! So I asked my GP about breast reduction. She referred me to Dr. Nguyen. A month after I got a call for my consultation to have a month later. Consultation was Feb.28. I thought if I’m having this I might as well ask about tummy tuck. My stomach stretched quite a bit and I have lots of stretch marks and loose skin. I read somewhere you could save by combining the surgeries.
First consultation was quick and easy and was approved for breast reduction through insurance and was put on the wait list. I asked about tummy tuck reduction and I was scheduled to come back a month later.
Due to COVID 19 my second consultation got pushed back a couple of times and finally had it June 5. Booked my surgery date that day for Aug.17.
It was strongly recommended by PS to go with auxiliary lipo so I don’t get a side boob after reduction as well as flanks and thigh lipo.
Had a couple of weird days thinking what am I doing!? And having second thoughts. Now I am mostly excited.
Dr. Nguyen was very nice and she went through everything with me and answered all my questions before I even asked.
I’ve added some photos of my belly. Will add photos of my breast soon.

I’m about a month away surgery. Getting super excited! I will be paying for it tomorrow. Then being sent out to get my measurements for my compression garment. My PS wants me to start wearing it a week prior. I’m really not looking forward to that. I’ve also ordered a couple of fruit of the loom bras. I tried them on and they seem comfortable enough.
I’ve been debating weather I should order the toilet seat riser. Some reviewers here stated it made their life easier but I’m just unsure. Someone else recommended a reading pillow. I might get that. I will update on that.
I thought I update my info as well as I find it helpful when I read reviews with them for reference sake.
5’1
142lbs ( really hoping to loose 5 pounds before surgery)
Measurements at the moment in inches are
Bust- 37.5
Waist-30.5
Hips- 41
Bra size 35DDD. Hope I end up a full C.

The nerves are starting to kick in! I’m definitely already a bit emotional going from super excited to super nervous. I also got my period yesterday so been feeling yucky but I’m glad I didn’t get it at the same time as surgery.
I started wearing my Marena compression garment as per my PS recommendation to wear it one week prior. She wanted me to get used to it. It’s actually not that bad. I’ll have to wear it a total of 7 weeks. Apparently you get used to it and you actually feel better with it on after surgery as it keeps everything in place. So we will see.
I bought a couple of wedge pillows on amazon. One for my back and the other for my legs. The thought of sleeping on a recliner wasn’t appealing to me. I’m also a side sleeper. So the whole sleeping situation worries me a bit. I don’t remember having issues sleeping after my c section I was sleeping like a baby but that might been due to being sleep deprived! Also there was no tension on the scar.
I’ll be staying overnight at the hospital I’ll be in a reclinable bed for the first night and someone checking up on me. Hubby only allowed to come and check on me quick then he has to leave due to COVID.
I managed to go down to 139lbs. I wanted to loose a bit more but oh well. I’m hoping eventually going down to 130 after surgery. It will be easier to work out without the big breast holding me down.
I took some more before photos and I will post some after surgery.
