Countdown till I become a fisherdoll!

I cannot express how satisfied I am with Dr. Fisher’s work. I am 4 days away from my month anniversary and the process of my healing is going exceptionally well. My incision is completely healed, no scabbing or breakthroughs (thank you Lord). The only issue I’m still having is the extreme swelling and my lady parts looks massive. I’m back at work full time and it seems like if I sit for more than an hour my stomach starts to get tight. I can sleep comfortably on my back and sides, still hesitant to sleep on my stomach.
I can say that with my abdomen muscles tightened, I definitely am limited as to food intake. Anything that is high in salt, alcohol or sugar you will blowup like a puffer fish lol

I have officially crossed over to the body I was meant to be in!! On the 12th I has my surgery and it was by far one of the top three things I’ve ever done (first two were my kids).
On to the details of the surgery: on the 11th I meet with the coordinator, signed away my life, took my weight and paid for my garments. Around 4:45pm I received a call with my surgery time for the following day. I went in at 7:00 am and meet with Fisher himself and was star struck! His bedside manner was exceptional, very upfront and attentive. Of course I had a million and one questions for him, never did I feel rushed. Every question he took his time to explain and made sure I was comfortable and understood his response. Around 10:56 am a very handsome anesthesiologists came in and explained what he was about to do, then escorted me to the surgery room.
The room was extremely cold and sterile looking. I was given a warm IV and told the medicine I was being given would leave a bad taste in my mouth and possibly sting ( they were correct). Before I went under the anesthesiologist said a prayer and lights out.
I woke up in the recovery room COLD, the nurse came over and gave me a warm hose that was blowing out warm air, I was then given medicine for the pain I had and dressed. It felt really fast but the whole process once I was in the recovery room was about two hours.
My niece took me back to the hotel to rest. I was up every hour to walk and hydrate. The following day I was up and moving around as if hours ago I wasn’t just dissected lol. My sisters and I went to my post op appointment and the nurse was shocked that I was alert as much as I had been. All in all the surgery was to bad for me.

My coordinator reached out to me yesterday and said I will need a cell saver since my BMI is a little over the required max. A little bummed that I will have to shell out more money, but I don’t want to delay the process any longer. My frame is solid which makes it extremely hard to drop a lot of weight without losing muscle. Thank goodness I have been saving additional monies for just in case....
