Just Had my Pre-op Appt - Tacoma, WA

So I decided to do smart lipo at Sonobello in Tacoma,WA. After changing meds 3 years ago I started to gain weight like crazy. I have tried every diet and I work out 3-4 times a week at a pole fitness place. I also see a personal trainer 2 times a week. The problem is that I only gain in my torso. I literally do not have a pinch of fat in my legs or arms. So I decided I need help. I was super nervous to go but I ended up having a consultation with a lovely lady named Lisa. If she doesn't make you want to get lipo I don't know who else could. Wow she is beautiful! She made me feel comfortable and gave me a good estimate with money off for wanted to do 3 areas.
I haven't told any of my friends that I am doing this procedure because when I mentioned that I wanted to do it I got a lot of opposition and some even got mad. So I decided to keep this to myself. My preop appt went really well and they are so nice! The one thing that bothers me about everything is the leaking for couples days afterward. How gross is that?!!?!! Apparently the very best thing to do is to get up and moving afterwards as much as possible without over exerting yourself.
I am added some before pics and hope that all this money spent will help me feel better after all the waisted (or so it feels) effort of the diets and exercise. Of course I will go back to exercising after!!!

So I'm at work now because my appt is at 2. I'm super nervous but excited for change. I got a call the day before yesterday to remind me not to drink coffee and other suggestions before surgery. I'm not too sure how long the procedure will be. The doctor forgot to sign my Vicodin prescription so I don't have that one I hope that works outs because I know it wouldn't be fun without it. They said to bring the not signed one and they will write a new one for my boyfriend to pick up while I'm in surgery. I'll update later before or after the surgery.

The surgery went really well. I did three areas; upper abs, lower abs, and waist. The drugs they give you are good for sure because I barely felt any pain. I nodded in and out during the procedure and talked waaaayyy too much! Some of the procedure hurt in the upper abs area and tickled on the waist area. The doctor and nurses were super nice and fun to talk to. The whole thing took about 3 hours. When I got home I went strait to bed around 7 and my boyfriend got me up several times through the night to walk me around and drink some water.
This morning when I woke (after sleeping 10 hours) up I had to pee really bad so I took off the waist wrap and the body cincher. My pads were soaked! So I changed out the pads and put the garment back on. It's thought getting it on and off. What I found more crazy is the amount of energy I had this morning. I made some coffee and did a load of laundry and other house chores. Around 1pm I lost all energy and took a nap. I took some pics of the after and the fat they took out. It's really gross!
