Doing my happy dance I tried on clothes! Check check check me out!! Hehe #TeamHughesBarbies

WORTH IT$24,000
I'm so excited to say today i left my home for the first time outside of a dr.s appt. I was able to drive and sit up. for 4 hours. I alternated between the nicely padded office chairs we have and kneeling on the floor. The kneeeling was nice since I didn't want to draw too much attention to myself by standing. The only thing I will remember to do is to bring a pillow to kneel on. The floor is so hard it hurts my knees. This wasn't the highlight of my day barbies! Wait for it... lol
I went clothes shopping for the first time since my surgery and was in tears. I have dreaded shopping and trying on clothes every since i had my child, because of all the lose skin which created a muffin top, the booty she took and the deflated balloon boobies. haaaa so I tried on yoga pants and barely got them past my before I was like ohhhh noooo honey this is not going to work! lol I then tried on a pair of windbreakers which fit but did not show off this nice booty and figure I just worked and payed for. I began to feel a little sad. So I moved on to a maxi skirt which was too small. At this point I'm like fml! lol so I asked if I could get another size. The lady working there was not nice, but I just assumed she's probably having a ruff day like me. lol SO I looooove brightening up ppl's days! So I smiled and explained that I'm sorry I would normally go get another size myself but I just had surgery and already had to walk all over the store to find my clothes because another agent put my clothes back because I stepped away from my basket for maybe 2 mins to locate more white t shirts. She said oh I understand its no problem and we began to laugh and talk. Goes to show you that if u attempt to brighten other's day that energy will reflect off them and bounce right back to you.
So a young gentleman brought ugh the bigger size. I tried it on and was like omg omg it fits. Honey before I knew it I was out the changing room with no top on. lol lol we laughed and got excited over how well it fit! wooot woot! feeling empowered I tried on a maxi dress! Barbies, i got misty eyed. Yes I have on foams on my tummy and im only 2 weeks post op, but barbs I look great! for the first time since I was in 10th grade I was excited and completely happy with the way i looked. It was such an amazing feeling i just had to call my new friend over to celebrate with me. I snapped pics. Yes I finally have on clothes in a pic. hahaha what? being nude is natural, I hate clothes. Everyone shld be naked. :)
I could be more amped and satisfied. As soon as I got home I whipped out the tape measure. I am at 42.5.... why I do believe I have fluffed a tad bit. hehehe Poor Dr. hughes I emailed him again asking him about massages and fluffing, implants and so on. Hes like you can get massages at 1 month and it is going to get rounder with time... it is! she is! I am! wooooooooo! any who check out my developing dunk barbies!
For anyone that is reading this and if your in pain, just remember that it wont last forever and once you get in the mirror and start seeing the results and swelling decreasing, range of motion improving, and receiving compliments, you will completely forget about the pain and just be in awe of your results.

Let's start with the initial contact! Dr. Hughes is by far the most responsive Dr. You will ever have the pleasure of working with. Even before you are officially a patient of his. I requested a consultation on a Sunday and Dr. Hughes contacted me the same evening confirming an appointment. The Consultation Dr. Hughes was upbeat and friendly and took the time to thoroughly explain procedures and what he thinks would work best in addressing the concerns I have with my body. The arrogance ppl speak of is actually confidence and knowledge in his field which is reassuring and puts you at ease. Heck even Super Man is confident!! ;) The pre-op appointment I met with the Adam and the nurse to fill out paper work and to take my vitals. Olga was friendly Dr. Hughes stopped by to check on me and get me pumped up for the surgery and to answer any additional questions I could think of. Again very sweet, upbeat, and thorough in his answers:) Emails for questions I had prior to surgery date. I had random questions prior to surgery which Dr. Hughes immediately responded to! World class service! Where can you find another Dr. With such a great response time?! No where!! Day of surgery I didn't have to wait long. I was taken in immediately and started the pre-op prep. The nurse was sweet, friendly, and engaging. Which is so important when you have never gone under the knife and this really eases anxiety. The anesthesiologist came in and explain things. He was also very sweet and nurturing, was such a blessing to work with him. He also answered thoroughly answered questions. Dr. Hughes came in after as always with his big friendly smile to put you at ease and with a couple of jokes. He made the markings and explained the procedure again and answered any questions we thought of last minute. Again such a blessing to have an upbeat friendly Dr.! Post op Recovery Both Dr.s, Dr. Hughes and the anesthesiologist, came to check on me. To see how I'm doing. Again very nurturing and amazing service. I Just really feel blessed to have found Dr. Hughes because the care he puts into his work you feel at ease that you're in great hands and will be so from beginning to end! At the hotel for recovery Olga called to check on me and give further instructions and advice. The pain was so intense, I naturally have ZERO pain tolerance, lol(I got an epidural while giving birth and STILL passed out 6 times from the pain) so my friend called into the clinic at 12:50 not knowing they close at 1, and as everyone is leaving got in touch with Dr. Hughes to request different pain meds. Do you guys know that Dr. Hughes waited for my friend to arrive to get a new rx after closing hours on a Saturday! We all know most Dr.s once their working day is over will dodge calls or additional work. Not superman Dr. Hughes he waited and wrote the rx and gave him his cell phone in case there are any issues! SO WHEN YOU READ HES AN AMAZING DR. BELIEVE IT! It's not hype or fluff, just simply fact! Post op check up I went in Monday, since I live in San Diego, to do a check up and dressing change with Olga. It's pretty cool they were able to fit me in the same day! Again evidence of amazing service! Olga was very friendly and thorough and funny in her explanations and changing the dressings. She also got me to walk straight up which relieves a lot of pressure in my back! So awesome! Dr. Hughes came in to check on me to see how things are going and if I'm happy with my results! High 5 I'm over the moon with my results! The results at 4 days post op The work as you can see is extremely CLEAN! The Dr. Works w an eye for precision and being that I have darker skin scarring is a very important factor. Olga took the bandages off and there was no blood and the lines were so freaking straight and clean! Just amazing eye for detail. I know my scars will heal fine. Did you guys see my before pics?!! HONEY I was a hot mess! Thanks a lot Mother Nature! Lol and Dr. Hughes, like a super hero, saved the day! Look at those results?!! I can't wait until I'm healed! The before and after are like night and day! Woot woot!! I'm definitely goig back to Dr. Hughes for my thigh lift and other procedures I wish to have done SOON! Lol ***** I certainly recommend Dr. Hughes to everyone, and anytime I see others post about botched jobs I recommend they go see THE DR! The proof is in my pictures! I'm sure I'm the most extreme boob job, and ur boobs look better than mine did. If Dr. Hughes can correct mine, ur boobs should be a breeze. Oh I forgot I have no pain from my boobs at all! I hopes this helps you guys in making your decision and if you have any additional questions I'm more than happy to answer! :)

Hey Hughes Barbie Doll!!!!! You look FANTASTIC!!! I feel your totally positive vibe! DR HUGHES IS THE BEST ISN't he?!!! I think you and I had the same stuff done. You are absolutely right.... I had ZERO pain from my boobs--zero.. And my sensation came back right away too. I'm so glad you are so HAPPY! {insert HAPPY song from Pharrell } This surgery is so life changing!

You've done the HARD work to get here---you ROCK THAT BODY!!!! Isn't it just "mind blowing" how great you look and feel?--there are just no words to adequately describe it!! {{{{big hugs!!!}}}
