One more thing I forgot to mention is this really weird sack or pouch that has appeared above my pubic area. I never had that there before and it's totally gross. Has anyone else had this problem? How do I get rid of it???

It might be the swelling. Wait it out and see how things look next week.

Yes it's swelling. I had my lipo done there a year ago in august and just had my revision done almost 3 weeks ago. You'll have an awkward looking swollen pubic area for a few weeks, I still have it but it's already gone down pretty significantly. Who was your doctor?

What is a revision? I had Doctor Mcintosh. It really stays there that long?!?!

Day 1 Poat-Op

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!

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.
