Post Plastic Surgery!

Well, I am home and finally on the good side of recovery. I ended up getting a uti that I swear just about killed me. I have all these compression garments on and could not pee and when I did it was a trickle and extremely painful. I started running a fever and hubby freaked. I am on meds and doing much better. I have to say the tummy and boobs feel great the most painful thing was the lipo of the thighs. I was really surprised this hurt the most. I thought that would be the least painful. I will be posting pics either tonight or tomorrow of my afters.. they might not be that pretty, I am really bruised and swollen but the swelling has come down quite a bit. My hubby loves the new me :eek: I swear I can hear my implants sloshing around when I move.

Weird. I am hoping I can get my drains out on Wednesday when I go to the doc. They are a pain in the butt. I took a shower yesterday and it was glorious. LOL. My hubby came in with me to wash and support me. I am slowly weening of the pain killers and will be glad when I am able to get around without being exhausted. I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving.. I'm pretty bummed I wont be out with all the other Black Friday shoppers :cool2:

Congrats! I am glad to hear you are dong well. I know down the road this is something I will have to do. I am a 44 F bra and they are already hanging pretty low. I can't image what they are going to look like when all is said and done. Going to have to start saving....

May your recovery be quick and with little pain.

Hey there stephanie. I was a 44 DD pre lapband and mine had shrunk to a 38 D pre plastic surgery. I think I am probably a 34 or 36 DD now. Definetly start saving.. I am loving my new body. how long have you been banded?

I am only 5 weeks out tomorrow. This will certainly be down the road, but I know it will happen. Down 25 pounds!! So I am pleased so far. Still getting used to things, but overall happy I did it. Take care and Happy Thanksgiving.
