@ms.sss and @greentael
Did y’all have to do lovanox in jests after your PS?

No. I didn't have a history of clots so my Plastic Surgeon didn't order them.

But I did receive them after both WLS because (I think) it was standard for the practice but only while in the hospital. I didn't have to inject myself.

I don’t have a history either. I believe He said Bariatric patients are more likely to have clots.
He just called to check in on me. “All is well!!”
So glad. No nausea after surgery bc I asked them not to give me gas. Makes me super sick. They just did IV drugs to keep me asleep. Think I’m the Anesthesia world it’s called TEVA.

Well I gotta say the breast lift and aug isn’t very painful but that may be due to the fact that the Tummy Tuck is very sore/painful. Dr says yesterday and today would be the worst of it. Anyone have a positive words on the tummy tuck on when this got better for them?🙏🏻😊🙏🏻
I know it’ll all be worth it soon!!

I barely felt anything from my lift too. All of the pain was from the TT which definitely still felt painful at 1 week post for me. I went home around day 8 or 9 and after 2 weeks I felt much better.

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
