7WPO UPDATE

WORTH IT$12,350
Sorry ladies I've been MIA. My old job in The Bay Area has we working fr home in the evenings and it's exhausting. No time for anything these last 3 weeks.. I wanted to post a quick update this morning for my 7week progress.. Everything is doing well. Yesterday though my incision opened.. It was where the skin was pleated so I cleaned it good and taped it up. I haven't taken the tape off to see how it is. Also I feel something weird in my left breast. IDK if it's normal to feel the implant? It's hard to explain but it's almost the the corner of it or seething and when I push it it goes away. My next dr appt isn't until 12-11. I haven't started back to the gym but I am walking daily and doing cardio at home squats and lunges light things. I haven't been able to get rid of the few pounds though so I know I need to step it up. Hope all of you ladies are doing well! Hard to believe next week will be 2 months for me!

HI Suzy! Wedding cupcakes are the most beautiful thing I love that kind of stuff and this winter weather coming up around the corner is perfect but the wedding season slows a little right? I worked part time last summer for a wedding venue and it was sooooo much work I feel for the staff now on a different level!!! But I got to see all the décor cakes and cupcake ideas just in case I ever decide to give it a try hahahaa. 35 never married and U never know!! I am catching up on everything today and will post later too, I wanna see your cupcakes! (((hugs)))

Thanks Time you know it ! I put lots of hours into it. It is a hobby for friends and family. If I would figure out how much I made an hour I would be sad ;;; You should try it for the fun of it. My favorite part is planning, thinking of flavors and the decorating. It takes discipline to bake, make frosting and cleaning up the MESS. You are so sweet...35 and never married? You have such a rich , vibrant life. You will find the right guy to share your new chapter of yourself . You deserve the best .

well I spent 14 years with someone I knew I wasn't going to marry after about 8 years, does that count? LOL well with this weather changing I think I might bake some too, its so therapeutic. I love the way it makes the house smell too. You don't need to figure out what it is per hour, you enjoy every second and that's all that matters and I am sure people you make them for love them so that always makes you feel good too cant put a dollar figure on that. I know Ill have a husband when its my time. It just get lonely here and there but I am reading an amazing book that always seems to take my mind somewhere else and that helps. Thank you so much for saying I deserve the best I keep telling myself to wait for that and that is probably why Im single. LOL maybe my bar is too high? hahahaha I only want the person to love me the way I can love them. I think that is fair. XX Hope your having a beautiful day

Yes being in a relationship for 14 years surely counts...You were together longer than lots of couples are married.You are a success: not a failure in relationships even if you were not married. I am glad that you can visualize yourself in a happy loving relationship.What you dream and visualize will transform, just like your beautiful body did.I can see that you still believe in love and its out there for you , just believe it. Imagine your life with a special person who loves and cares for you like you do.He will be a special man that will treat you like the beautiful person that you are.Dream of the qualities that are important to you....Kindness, attentive, funny, positive , handsome , and thinks of you when you are not around... What ever qualities you want. Sometimes its scary to go forward when you have been hurt in the past, but, just have gratitude and let that past relationship go. Your bar is not too high its perfect for you.:) Whatever you desire will come true. Your thoughts about baking for enjoyment for the pure fun of it is true. It is an art ...How do you put a price on that.? Thank you for reminding me of what is important It makes baking fun and creative. I was having a so so day. Not feeling the greatest but you made me think about all the good things in life esp the love in my life that I am grateful for....You have a beautiful day too! ((HUGS)). ps what is the book?

AWWW that is awesome you are making me smile too. I am also grateful for what I have too and how far I have come down this life road and still happy and smiling. I try to think of what I want in a partner but honestly I told myself I would do something in sequence, get a mommy makeover, buy a house and then fall in love and get married. So I have photos of houses on my counter and fridge and that is what I am thinking of mostly!! I need to decide which one I want first. silly. Im ready the glassblower by Petra Durst Benning. It has such a good story line and was on sale at amazon for the kindle for only $3 Im so glad I got it :) I think Ill go get some baking supplies after work. I love love the cooking shows. chopped and cutthroat kitchen :) Im in the mood to bake now!! Im so glad your having a better day we really are so lucky and fortunate to be where we are.

Good to see you back time!! Been wondering where you've been hiding out! Maybe you should ask your PS about the boob issue and not wait until Dec... you know, just in case. I try to keep in constant contact with my PS between appts - more to my advantage than his! (He probably thinks I'm an annoyance bcz I have SO many ?s... LOL... better safe than sorry!)

Glad to hear your doing well and keeping busy! Take it easy on yourself about the weight, I too need a reminder as I am needing to step it up but remember, that it was major surgery and your body will heal at its own time!

Good morning Ladies,

Posting a quick video to show you my dog ear that will need a revision at 4 months. The nurse said it's an in office treatment that takes more than 30 minutes with a local for the pain. It's not decided yet if it'll be lipo on both sides or just the one and or another incision OR she said he may want to do the cool sculpting on both sides and back... But definitely will need to be corrected. Other than that things are going wonderful. Happy SX day to dream cruiser. And hope everyone has a beautiful rest of the week!

Dog ears and other complications... ugh, what a pain. So has it always been there or did it develop during your healing process? I had a tiny little something at the end of my L hip, too (like you) but it's flattening out as it heals. I don't think a dog ear - maybe just a bit more skin on the stitch or something.

yea that is what I have. its not flattening though and when I swell its really bulging. And the seam of the incision looks like a 3 year old cut it. The nurse said it was the internal stitches LOL I think not. Im not looking forward to re-healing again! Ill take some closer pictures this evening so you can see. :)

No I wont have to pay for it. She mentioned a small incision to remove extra skin or lipo or maybe cool sculpting for both flanks... I wont know for sure until I see the actual surgeon...December 11th

PS Visit Update from 9/19

Time4meORSeptember 21, 2014
Hi Ladies!!! Im so behind on getting online its been a busy weekend. Friday was my visit to the PS. I didn't get to see the Dr again!!! But I was assured my 4 month appt on 12/11 will be with him. Well I have a dog ear on the left side that will need a revision. Maybe lipo OR maybe a small cut and additional skin removal in the office with a local less than 30 minutes to correct. So that is hopeful. She was able to pull the stitch from my BB and clip it back. It was a super fast appointment. She said I don't need to wear the corset or the binder any longer unless I want to. And of course I need it its like a security blanket for me!! I was released for the gym and all my normal activities. She said I was looking as she suspected healing well and high spirits. And that at the 4 month visit he will fix the left side and itll be how I want it. I cant say I am stoked about having another recovery but hey. this is what I signed up for. She pulled out my pre-op picture. I was like that doesn't even look like me!! I don't recognize that body anymore. So things are going well and I couldn't be happier. this morning I woke up with massive energy, made a big breakfast for the boys and a protein shake for me and cleaned my entire house. I have been letting things go for weeks and hibernating as much as I can so it feels good to accomplish cleaning it all up. I still feel a little bleh Im blaming it on fall coming!! Im going to catch up on how everyone is doing. Happy Healing!!

Hey girlie how did you take off the wire off of the corset? In just bought one and was wondering how you did it!

Time4meOR
September 24, 2014
Hi!!! On the inside of the corset where the line is I made a small snip at the top without cutting all the way through them from the bottom I pushed the wire up through the hole. Save the wire and when you want to put it back in or when you plan on standing you can.. You can take them all out if it more comfortable as well. I bought a size Med and just took out the two in the front, and a size small and I took all the wires out ^_^ Let me know how it feels!!
