39 year old physically fit. I've been married to my husband (he is 6'3" and about 300 lbs) for a year and I have consistently gained weight since meeting him. I am 100% accountable for my 20lb weight gain and I just can't take not fitting in my clothes. I'm doing this surgery for a lifestyle reset!!

Pre Op Today

I was more nervous going to pre op today because I didn't know what to expect. My surgery day is in 6 days so I'm getting more anxious as I read reviews (success and horror stories!).

Thanks to this site, I got some prep done before pre op. Bought bromlein for swelling and just ordered Lipo recovery board and foam. My surgeon didn't give me that advice, but figured it didn't hurt to have on hand. I asked him to write me a prescription for anica for bruising. It's an otc natural supplement , but if I have a prescription - I can use my HSA card to pay for it.

Took pre op pictures (I felt so vulnerable !) and asked the questions I had written down. He gave me the prescriptions for my pain meds (that's scary!) and scheduled my post op appointment. Also finally paid off my balance.

I also took a leap and decided to add arm lipo! Eeek! I figured get it all at once. I appreciated that the surgeon didn't persuade me to do it but was just supportive.

I took some pics of the office while waiting in my robe to see the surgeon. He took awhile so I also took my own pre op pics using the timer on my iPhone ..lol

Filling Prescriptions, Getting Arnica. Doc says I don't need anything else?!?

I was on my way to Walgreens to fill scripts and buy gauze, band aids, overnight pads (for leakage) based on what Ive read on the site. But I called the doc office just to have a good checklist and they said they will send me home with ALL those post recovery supplies. They recommend I have peroxide on hand to clean the garment if it stains - but that's it! I feel like buying everything anyway just so I know I have it and can see it..lol

Well, it's really awesome knowing I don't have to spend money on any recovery supplies. I wonder if any other PS also sends home this supply kit??

My doctor's office doesn't provide all the supplies. They told me to bring pads and prescriptions with me and have band aids and gauze at home.
