Hi ladies!
Reading everybody's reviews has really helped me make my decision. So I scheduled my procedures. My only question is right now. Have any of you ladies had a ATT and BBL at the same time? If so, can anybody please give me some advice on how to stay comfortable through my recovery process. It would be much appreciated!

I am renting a lift chair from Rent a center. It cost me $127 for 4 weeks. I have read some girls use a Boopy to sit on in their recliner? The Boopy is a large pillow breast feeding moms use to help them with nursing? I am sure you can get on cheap with all the garage sales going on.

Made it to the flat side!
Hello ladies! I had my surgery Monday the 12th. Everything went well. I'm still feeling a little woozy and sick at times. Had my first doctor visit today. Everything looks good. My only worry is that I'm going to split open my stitches.

Good morning Heidi, how is recovery going for you? Would love to hear from you. Happy healing.

Good morning! So far so good! The only thing that's really driving me a little nuts is the back pain. Trying to get up enough energy to take some more pictures. But the strain on my back keeps me from standing up too long. How is your recovery coming. Are you able to stand up straight yet? Because I can't yet.
June 19, 2017
Yes I have been able to stand up straight since about day 2 or 3. Actually at my post op appointment I had to ask if I even received muscle repair since I was able to almost stand upright. I received really good advice, this electric chair helped with that. I was told to recline slowly into an almost flat position. This helps the muscles to relax and not allow that incision to heal in a contracted position. (Hope that makes sense) heating pad on low and your muscle relaxers should help with the back pain. Maybe alternate with cold packs too? I hope you feel better soon. You will be happy once you get over this small hump. Sending you warm hugs and kind thoughts.

Thanks! It makes a lot of sense. I haven't really been reclining all that much because of how much it hurts to stand back up. But I'm going to take your advice and start doing that exclamation point I had started with the heating pad and ice packs and that does seem to help. I'm happy to hear that you're recovery is going well! And warm hugs and kind thoughts to you too! :-)

Haha! I use voice text too. Smh. Just go slow and only do what you can handle (smiley face)

Hi Heidi! How are you doing? I hope recovery is going well!! I think you are almost 1 month post op and have been looking for an update. I hope you are well. Keep us posted. Xoxo

Hi! I'm doing really good! Still slightly hunched. But pretty much standing up straight. How are you doing? I haven't seen any new photos lately. You just hit your 5-week mark didn't you? I plan on posting new pictures today of my 4 week.
July 12, 2017
Hey Heidi!! Yes I am posting new pictures tomorrow. I just went to Dr. Pryor on Monday and had my tape removed. Everything looks GREAT! So happy to hear your doing well!
July 12, 2017
Awesome! I see Dr. Pryor tomorrow to get my tap off! Cant wait to see your photos!

Made it to day 8!
Made it to day 8! It was a little rough. Lot of up and down emotions . But I'm working through it all. Thank goodness for this site! Had a bout with constipation. But I work that out! No pun intended! LOL! My appetite starting to get a little bit better. Still walking a little hunched over. But it's getting better. It's so tight in my upper abs I'm afraid I'm going to tear something. I have 6 more days until my drains come out . Hopefully ! Finally had a little bit more energy today to take some pictures. So I added a couple more.
Sweet, can't wait to see the new you! Check out my Notebooks for some great lists you can read through.
