Like many of the women on here I'm a hard working mom who lacks the confidence she deserves, and have been going back and forth about this life altering decision for a couple years. Reading other reviews has helped me gained the courage I needed to finally take the plunge which is why I decided to write one.
When I was in high school I was thinner but I have always had wide hips and a lot of extra padding on the top of my butt crack. I also have always had full big breasts.
After I had my three children I gained quite a bit of weight due to going through a divorce. It took me a year and a half but I have lost 50 pounds by being aware of what I'm eating, walking, running, exercise videos, and most recently started cross fit. I have come a long way and look and feel so much better!
Now when I look at myself though I have so much extra skin in my belly area and just some stubborn overlying fat that won't go away. Also my butt is not symmetrical anymore because of that fat pad at the top of my butt which makes me very self conscious and I'll tell you that out of the 50 lost pounds nearly none of it came from that upper buttock area! My breasts are also very deflated and stretched out looking. When I ran this summer my breasts were literally melting away; on top of being saggy from breastfeeding each of my three children for over a year each.
So on March 14 I finally go in and have all this taken care of! I'm getting a lift with 275 cc implants (that's the size that filled out the bra I want to wear again), a tummy tuck, and liposuction on my upper buttock area and I'm really looking forward to it!

So these ice packs i got in the camping section, much cheaper! I know they won't last as long but I don't need them to. Also I think the ice blanket will be perfect for my tummy!
We decided to go with a hospital bed instead of positioning pillows. It costs $198 for the month for a bed and almost that much for all the pillows I would need. Also, I'm the person who hates clutter and will throw anything unattended away lol... So I don't want those pillows hanging around anyway!
Went to the natural store and bought some oral and topical arnica. This was recommended by my Past and my homeopathic doctor I typically see. It helps with swelling and bruising. The topical will not be used on my incisions, but any other sore place and then taking internally as well until bruising and swelling is gone.
The only things I have left are my bras and survival pads. I am going to check with my local hospital about buying a package of the postpartum pads they use in woman's services, those will be perfect!

My PS actually put me on the oral Anica starting yesterday for my surgery next Friday (the 16th). I still have to pick up the gauze pads and wanted to add to my ice pack collection. My surgeons office recommended the soft gel kind. Good call on the hospital bed! I just had no where to put one! I had 2 c sections (belly button down) and remembered how very difficult it was to get up and down out of the bed unless I sat the bed all the way up and then could swing my legs around to the side. I got a lift recliner for my recovery time.
