Why is that?

Well I am on day 3 post surgery. My friends, this ain’t no joke. The struggle is real. I was, or thought I was prepared for the pain. I was pretty well prepared for the logistics thanks to everyone on here. But I was not at all mentally prepared to be totally helpless. Sure I knew I wouldn’t be able to brush or wash my hair, but I didn’t think about other stuff like feeding myself or getting a sip of water. I am usually the caretaker, not the patient. That part is hard for me. My hands are so swollen that I can’t make a fist. I wasn’t prepared for that either. This is the most I have been on my phone using only my thumb. I am glad I knocked out the worst surgery first. No regrets! Oh I will find out how much the skin weighed Friday. I am excited to find out and get these drains out! God bless you all.

Congratulations!!! You look great! Beautiful bosoms. That will be my third surgery. I am doing legs and arms Jan 10th. Then 360 and breast lift. Then implants. Hopefully all this year. Also in Houston.

Thank you so much!

Yes. There will actually be two different surgeons working on me at the same time. One for arms and one for legs.

Houston. Thank you!

Hey everyone, After losing 286 lbs. I am getting ready for my first skin removal surgery in 43 days. With the busy holiday season I know the time will fly by. I still can’t believe I am at this place in under two years. SW 487. CW 201 I am having arms and thighs done first. Any advice would be welcomed. Has anyone done that? What was recovery like? I am an impatient patient and tend to push and expect allot of myself. But I need to be realistic. Just how incapacitated will I be having all 4 limbs cut on at once? I can handle pain, I just don’t do helplessness very well. So I need realism and tips please.
