WORTH IT$7,725
Today was my initial consultation. I had a pretty good idea going into it that I would schedule the surgery today and take care of the down payment so I made sure all my finances were in line prior to today.
I have worked over the last 3 years to live a healthier lifestyle including eating well most times to frequent exercise including most anything over the years weights, cardio, circuit training ... but I am a curvy women who just haso those dreaded problem areas. My transition to night shift too has not made it any easier when it comes to working on my body shape.
So... I decided it's my time to take on lipo for myself ! My consult went well, doctor and coordinator were both friendly and informative. I hadn't planned on so much lipo but hey I'm just the kind of person who does things right from the gate. I'm basically having everything below my beasts to my knees sculpted! Approx OR time 3.5-4 hrs under general anesthesia.
I was super anxious going into today but in a good way. I intend to keep posting in here over the next months. I only have a little over a month until surgery so I know time will fly by. My pre op visit is scheduled for May 21! I intend to include pictures and details every step of the way! I have no shame in this I work hard to be healthy but we ladies know that sometimes it just isn't enough! I'm just looking to make my curves look amazing and find overall appeal in my body shape and contour. So cheers to my first cosmetic surgery
Consult selfie included. Let the countdown begin!!!!!!!

Planning for recovery
Today I made it a point to look at reviews on the supplements recommend I purchase for my upcoming procedure. Based on positive reviews and the fact the I don't plan to cheat myself in anyway after spending a large sum of money on this I decided to order them. I purchased the same products for a little overy $20 less than what my plastic surgeon was offering them for. But I have them and plan to take them as recommended.
I also have an entire 7 days off of work and plan to speak to my personal trainer about the few weeks I will take off from lifting. I am a huge fan of lifting but I don't plan on doing my normal regimen of lifting and intense cardio following this.
Probably for the next month now I will continue to stay informed, read reviews and just anticipate my upcoming procedure.
I have also decided to keep this decision private from family and friends. Only two exceptions being my boyfriend ( highly supportive & my driver ? & my best friend who I vent all too ) . Unfortunately there are too many negative connotations associated with lipo so I plan to keep everyone else out of it.
36 days ....

It is an entirely personal matter and you don't need to tell anyone. I just told my mom (she was my driver), she told my dad (she felt like she had to), especially since I live with my parents. I only told my personal trainer and my sister who found out about it by accident that I was having surgery. I haven't told anyone at work what I had done, just that I had surgery and needed a few days off (thought I would just take the weekend to recover but needed a few more days). And I told one close friend after I had it done. You don't need to listen to other people's opinions or horror stories. It is something that you want to do and as long as you feel comfortable with your plastic surgeon that is all that matters. Your PS should provide you with arnica-mine did and I just finished it today. Wishing you the best of luck! I wish I had found this site before I had the surgery, but it has been great to read everyone's recovery tips.
