I am SO nervous/excited!!! Today is the day! It is currently 4:45am. I am to arrive at the surgical center by 5:45am. Surgery scheduled at 7am! It’s all happening AND SOOOON!! I have been washing with antibacterial soap for 2 days now. I have my bag packed. (With: spanks, post surgical waist trainer, all Rx meds, socks, chapstick, and my phone) surgery is expected to last 2.5 hours and I should be home by around 10-11am.

I am taking pain med every 4 hours. An hour after I take that, I have a thc gummy. Between the two the pain is tolerable. The pain is bad, but I can already see big results! So it will be worth it I think. I can go to the bathroom by myself. The part that hurts the most are my ab muscles where they sewed them shut. I can not even feel the incision site! The drains are easy to empty. I took a shower this morning. Getting the spanks on and off was HORRIBLE! But I made it through with help from my husband. My back hurts from the same position sitting/hunching/sleeping. Heat and ice help quite a bit.
