  1. Hi, My surgeon insisted on an unfill for the TT by 2cc. No problems with nausea.. Breast lift with an unfill with some nausea in recovery room. Arm lift no defill. No nausea. Face booked for March. Thighs in December 2012 I hope.
  2. I read this suggestion on the site. I buy Premier chocolate protein shakes at Costco with 30 grams of protein. They are around $25 case for 18. I mix mine with frozen strawberries and a dash a vanilla. You can find them by the pharmacy.160 calories, fat 3 g, carbs 5 g, fiber 3 g, sugar 1 g
  3. Can i be noisy and ask why a revision on your tt? Have you lost more weight? I'm happy with mine but can see having a revision maybe down the road. Thanks and good luck!
  4. Hi, I have had a tummy tuck and a breast reduction. I didn't take my husband to any of my consults but was glad to have him drive me to the followup appointments. I felt less distracted not having him at the initial consults and I could concentrate on all my questions. He is very supportive of all my surgery and I'm booked for an arm lift next.
  5. Have had the band 3 years and have lost 140 pounds. Had the port replaced last year due to leaking. Wouldn't change it for the world!
  6. i did the water proof bandaids. Opsite are great and can get them from a surgical supply store. I cut them up cos they are expensive. For the occasion bath it was worth it!
  7. I use the Premium chocolate protein drinks from Costco and add frozen strawberries and vanilla. Greatly improves the taste.
  8. I forgot to mention that my PS said I could wear it when ever. The Recovery Room Nurse where I had my surgery also had a TT years ago after 6 kids and still likes to wear hers when she gets her period.
  9. Had a TT in the spring. I still like to wear it sometimes. Just feels comforting.
  10. Don't know if we can get this one at Costco in Canada. Anyone know? Or any other suggestions for Canada supplies? Thanks.
  11. Yes I was weighed. Also when they did my port replacement I was weighed.
  12. I'm 55 and just had a tummy tuck. I have a consult with my ps on September 1 for a consult on a breast lift and augment. After I save some more money I want a face lift next summer! Age doesn't matter. We DESERVE this.
  13. Hi, When I asked my nutritionist what to order when eating out, she said 'soup.':rolleyes:
  14. Those are called steri strips. Go ahead and shower and they will slowly come off over the next couple of weeks.:tt1:
