WORTH IT$9,500
I'm excited! I'm having a TT, BA, and lipo. I know recovery will be harsh the first few weeks, but the end result will be worth it! I've read a lot of the amazing stories and I look forward to the end result in about a year. The forums on this site are very helpful and I did lots of research before deciding on getting the procedures, and who to get them done by. I suggest anyone wanting this procedure get very informed and not be blindsided by the results. I'm not disillusioned and I know it will be hard after the surgery is over.

Day 1 post op
1 day post op.yesterday I got nauseous when I came to and that hurt pretty bad. I was walking around the living room yesterday evening. The abdominal spasms aren't fun, but they aren't that bad either. Getting percoset from the doc today, hydro just isnt cutting the mustard.
Everything is getting easier , but slowly.
A few times it felt like I was pulling stitches, but I'm probably overreacting and it just seems that way. You don't really know how much you rely on your core until youre not supposed to use them and let them heal.

Full Post op day 2
Feeling a little better than yesterday. I hate the feeling of pulling, but it's necessary evil, and it keeps getting a little better every day. It hurts to not take it easy.
My hubby had to go back to work today, yesterday I worked on getting up to the restroom on my own with him hovering, it's not perfect by any means, but I can do it.
At first I was very scared that I was popping stitches left and right, not the case at all; plus I thought I wasn't supposed to use my muscles at all, but that's not possible.I just have to go slow and easy. I still don't have much of an appetite, but I'm not going to force it. No matter how bad it gets, I know it's going to get better everyday *smile*
