Here is what I have been using for my after Care in addition to the pain pills and my daily multivitamin. So far so good. Lots of swellings and more swelling but pain is not too bad. Just a little sore. Very minimal.

Learning how to be patient....

kmac6768
So I have read hundreds of posts, looked at 100's of before and after pics on this site and yet nothing really prepares you for your own results and journey. Rule number 1...be patient. Your not going to be instantly skinny, your body is going to look kinda weird and deformed, it is impossible to picture what your going to look like in 30 days and its normal to look and feel like a balloon for the 1stime few days!!! I knew all of these things based on the helpful posts all of you ladies write that help me so much. It's just so sereal when you looking at yourself. All of our bodies are different even though we may be able to relate to someone's shape and size we will all have different experiences. I personally am swelling a lot! I am round, weigh 10 lbs more theb normal and are retaining a bunch of water. The doc says this is normal and swelling takes a while so be patient. When the doc took off my garment the next day for my follow up appointment I looked weird shaped, looked like I have two stomachs now and started getting nervous. My plastic surgeon and his staff assured me this is all normal, it takes time, everyone feels this way and is scared and your not use to your body looking deformed. Your body will reshape, swelling will go down and in 30 days I will see a big difference in 6 months your final results, but in 30 days 80% ish of the swelling will be down. Here are the pics 24 hours after my surgery. Hope this helps you all on your journey as all of you ladies have helped me tremendously!!!

Why am I so hungry...??

kmac6768
So the day after my surgery, I felt so hungry! I was eating every 2 to 3 hours and for some reason I just couldn't seem to get rid of the hunger. I was munching all day. Grapes, toast, mozzarella, salami, ham, Prosciutto, Pirates bootie puffs...seriously what was wrong with me. I calied my doctors officell (which by the way is amazing) and Nicole the office manager told me that my body doesn't know the difference between being hungry and thirsty and if I drink a bottle of water, wait 30 min then I won't be so hungry. True enough finilly after wanting to eat every thing in site. I realize I'm just more thirsty then anything....drinks tons of water!!!

The water will help a lot and I have been drinking the low sugar Gatorade. My doc also told me do not diet during the healing process. It is not healthy. Try to eat low carb if possible and force yourself to drink a bottle of water every hour if possible. I am on day 4 and my hunger is finally under control now that I'm hydrated!
