Good morning all!! It's 7:15 and I am en route to the plastic surgeon's office to have a breast lift with augmentation, arm lift an full tummy tuck! I am soo anxious and nervous! My throat is dry and hurts because I cannot even have a sip of water. Today seems like a busy day, as I have read others are having there plastics done today as well! Good luck to everyone else who is having surgery today, just had it and those close to having it! I will try to keep everyone updated as I progress!!

Thanks sarsar!

Had my 3 week check up today, my surgeon said that I am healing very well and that everything is looking fantastic! He put me on a scar cream daily, and also using silicone strips on my incisions. I am continuing to wear my compression garments all day! I will continue to wear them until 12 weeks or so. My breasts are riding a bit too high, they are still up in my armpits and he is a bit concerned they may not drop all the way. I'm wearing some sort of Velcro belt around the top of my breasts to help them drop down and I'm also supposed to manually push from the top downward with pressure to also help aid in dropping into place. He said if they won't drop into place by 4 months I may have to have them replaced with smaller implants, so those who pray, pray for me that they drop into place!!! Other than that I'm feeling much much better and everyday gets better! Thank you all for listening!

Great news about your healing....Just keep pushing down the breasts, I had to also...It seemed like mine were up in my collar bone, but at about 6 weeks they did drop...so it's very early....No worries for the first couple of months...Just give them some time and see how they look later on...4 months is a good time to judge the outcome...Can I ask what size you went with? I said I wanted a 325cc but then left it up to the surgeon to make the best fit, ended up with 370's, so alittle bigger than I had planned...

I got 375cc mentor smooth round high profile. I also had a breast lift and didnt have a lot of actual breast tissue left after my weight loss. Here is a pic of them with a bikini top for modisty!

I'm just over 3 weeks post op

As u can see in both pics if you look closely, they literally go up to my armpit!

Last year when I had my breast lift/implant, lower face/neck lift and arm skin removal, all done at once, I felt like I wanted someone to just put me out of my misery...My hubby's take on the subject was, well if you are going to be down recovering anyway, might as well do as much at one time as you can....I had no idea, it was going to be three times the pain, should have known...After two weeks I did start to feel better, could not lay on my stomach for at least 2 months...Time does go by much slower after surgery, I have learned that. Next time I have any surgery, I am going to recover on some sort of vacation, since everyone knows vacation time goes by faster than any other time! lol Hang in there, it does get better and you will be so happy you had it done and that it's all behind you!!!

Been massaging my scars daily and have been hearing and feeling little pop sounds? I hope this is normal !! Also this morning I woke up and one of my breast was a tad bit lower than the other? I wonder if that means one is dropping faster than the other?

Also noticed that I have some loose skin above my nipple in the lower breast... Not happy at all about that : ( I called the surgeons nurse and she said to give it time to see if it fills out once they drop and if they both are the same if not I may need a revision and another lift on that side. I told her I have no more money!!! She said, "oh honey, don't worry! The Dr. won't be charging you" that was such a relief! I still hope everything corrects itself, I don't want another surgery!

Just remember you are hyper critical of everything right now. You are still healing and your body is adjusting. You look amazing and you've come so far. Hugs to you!

Thanks! I'm trying to just be patient right now and wait to see how things turn out, which is hard to do! Atleast I have the peace of mind knowing that if things don't work out right he will make them right! Keeping my fingers crossed they work themselves out!!!!

Just thought I would share a 2 week post op pic of my tummy tuck... I am still very swollen so keep that in mind when looking!

Here is a pic of my arms a well, I didn't feel like taking my arm garments off but atleast you can see how skinny they are.. I will post a pic later with no garments so you can see the scar line. I also had my breast lifted and implants put in.. I chose 375cc's and my surgeon chose 375cc's mentor smooth round high profile. I decided against putting pics of them online without clothing, I just feel better about it not being naked so sorry : (

Your boobs don't look high, just perky. You're probably so used to them sagging is all. Looking great and thank you so much for b logging your experience

Had to buy sports bras today.. My band width is a 30, 32 but because of the size of my breast I had to buy a size 38!!! Wow!

Lol me too!! I had to send my sister to get bras twice because they were too small. I only had a lift so I'm assuming I'm still retaining fluid. Hoping to get back to my 34 soon.
