    I lost 140 pounds......overweight forever.
    i thought i would never do plastics, i have a great marriage to a man who has loved me no matter what. then i realized that as i got to a good weight that iknew in my head that i was a good weight, i wore a 10 and i could cover up what i needed to, but when i looked in the mirror it was the same body, only deflated.
    So happy with the decision.
    It has discomfort, but i will say i was pleasantly surprised it was not horrible painful, i am shocked. The girls that had Lipo were in more pain than me, and they did not have as much incision work as i had. i would do it again in a heartbeat tomorrow. Post op i only used motrin and tylenol for pain control. the compression garment has given me the most pain. I am tight and that is uncomfortable and hard to sleep at times.
    All in all a great experience. I will get some revision work down the road. As it is he did lots of work, and had me on the table for 13 hours. I had LOTS of skin. I know it was to my benefit that I was in great shape, i became a gym rat and it helped the recovery and the results.
    I know i liked seeing the changes in people.

    oh sure, i have used Spanx forever. but spanx only does so much. it is very different. spanx are wonderful, but i was wanting to make it permanent and make it all go away.

    my actual procedure was a lower body lift with anchor cut. I had lots of skin above my navel, so it gave me great results. so i was cut all of the way around and had a large area of tissue removed up the middle. He was able to give me great curves back and take so much away. Love my anchor cut:)

    xenafnp got a reaction from sarsar in July 26 plastics... Updates:)   
    I am 18 days post op, I had very little pain. the most pain was from the compression garment the first few days because of the swelling. Immediately post op you still have pain management onboard from the OR, I had one dose of IV toradol (an anti-inflammatory) and managed my pain from there with motrin and tylenol only. He sends us to the hotel with tramadol. He is easily accessible on his cell phone, i had to call him for something, and he answered immediately and dealth with it. We all helped each other, there were 4 of us there overlapping one another. I had everything done and I have not made much pain, I have been uncomfortable, but not pain. Now I will say, I did not have Lipo, and those girls seem to have more pain than I had consistently. I felt well managed.
