Bras
I never spent a lot of money on bras as I was losing. I would go buy cheap ones from walmart until now. I love Lane Bryants bras they are very supportive.

Shakes Or No Shakes?
Protein shakes are just liquid calories that do not keep you full. After you start eating regular food there is no need for shakes. Even at breakfast with a tight band you can manage some greek yogurt. The only time I would drink shakes is after a fill when I had to depend on liquids for the first 24 hours. Other then that heck no to the shakes.

Never put peroxide on an open wound. In past years its what we used. Now they know it breaks down body tissue. Does not help with anything. Clean something with it lol

In Desperate Need Of Help, Support And Maybe A Smack On The Cheek
You have to be mentally ready for this. Go read my blog Real Talk from a Veteran bander. Get yourself back on track by not eating junk. Make a conscience effort to put good healthy food in your mouth. You spent the money so dont waste it.

Help !
There will be days like this. You have to just try to do other things to keep yourself occupied. Clean, drink lots of water. Go walk, brush your teeth ( yes that helps with hunger) start exercising.

Numbness After Thigh Lift?
Numbness after any surgery is normal. They cut nerves and they will regenerate. I wouldnt worry unless it never goes away.

Anyone A Smoker?
I would say dont smoke from now til surgery. I didnt smoke for a whole week before because I was scared about being put under and smoking. I quit two and half years ago after I was six months post op. I would not smoke before surgery

5 Days Post Op With High Restriction
I am sure you are still very swollen and with added fluid that doesnt help. Call your doctor and tell them you are having trouble getting in fluids. If your getting that full then cut the amount in half that you are eating. It will get better but check with the doctor anyway.
