I’m just under two weeks away from my tummy tuck, BL/BA, and arm lift. I’m nervous and excited! This truly feels like my reward for all of the hard work I’ve put in to lose my excess weight. I’ve got my cute swimsuit picked out for my before & after pic which I will post here. For those who’ve gone before me, any last minute advice?

I felt the same way posting my "before" pics, but you will appreciate it when you are able to compare them to your "after" pics!!! You are in great hands with Earle, and I can't wait to see your transformation! You already look awesome, so he has a good foundation to work with!!!!

Prayers for a safe and successful surgery tomorrow! Let us know how you are when you are able to!!???

Good luck today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for a post op update!!!

Sending good vibes ❤️

Happy Surgery Day!

Just woke up back in our AirBnB. I remember waking in the PACU yelling and crying in pain. They gave me more meds and my ride home was relatively ok. I’ve been sleeping since but just walked and drank some water. Back to bed for now. Haven’t really seen much except that my ? is looking straight ahead rather than down at the floor.
Glad they were able to manage your pain. Get some rest and glad you are back home and doing well.

This unnerved me at the time. Sometimes I thought it was looking up at me when i was seated. Lololololzzz

it’s like, “why, hello, haven’t seen ya in a while!”

Quick update. I’m still in quite a bit of pain, dizzy at times. I had my first post op visit today which took a lot out of me. I got a peek at everything and I’m very happy! I get to shower tomorrow, will have my husband get some pics.

I’m really happy with how everything looks, and it looks like my thighs got some improvement from the TT.
