Well, I'm a week post op from my last plastics round. Not doing so good this time. I've had some complications but not anything that I can't get through. I had a build up of excess blood and clots in my right leg. I had to go in the day after surgery and have a clot suctioned out of my groin. Lovely, I assure you it was not! Then today I had to go back because I started gushing old blood from the same thigh. It was probably close to a pint of old blood stuck in me. So I have to massage my legs twice a day to get any excess clots out. I will not be doing any more surgery for quite awhile. I only have my arms left, and I'm tried to bulk them up through weightlifting.
I do not regret any of my surgeries. I wish I had never gotten to the point that I needed WLS to lose weight and then having the excess skin afterward. But I just think that because of it all, I'm a better person in the end. I have so much empathy and sympathy for people now. I see obese people on the street and a small part of me wants me to help them, but I know that this is a decision that people have to make for themselves.
I am now over 3 years post-op. It's hard to believe that. It actually feels like a long time ago when in reality it was not. My life have changed significantly since that day I was wheeled into surgery. For better and for worse. I lost a lot along the way. I'm not just talking about weight. But I think in many ways I discovered the real me underneath all that fat.

Ok, I had my Medial Thigh Lift and Breast Implant exchange on Monday October 1st.  Surgery went well. Went home and had to go back the next day because I had what I thought was a rather large hemotoma forming in my groin area. Turned out it was a huge clot of clood and fluid and I had to have it sucked out. He numbed me first and then did some digging around in me. I immediately felt better.

This surgery has kicked my butt.  I can't sit down. Walking is tough. when they split open and filet your thighs!! Think bad Zombie movie walk. Really...it's just like that.  Sitting on the toilet is next to impossible and I feel like sex may never happen again. I don't want anyone going anywhere remotely near my crotch for awhile. I'm not kidding.

On a high note, I finally got my boobs fixed the way I wanted them to be. High, Full projection and soft and natural. I went with the Inamed Cohesive Gels in the 410 FX Model. these puppies are awesome. Very expensive though and since you can only get them through the clinical trials, not available to everyone. He did an awesome job and can't wait for the months to pass by to see my end result. It takes about 6 months for the implants to drop and fluff and stabilize. Not a lot of women know this. You have to be patient with the boobies. they will look funny for awhile but then you will start to see suttle changes as time goes by.

I will state this..I will not be doing anymore plastics for a longgggg time. I am done. Surgery is hard on you physically and mentally. I just started crying the other night for no reason at all. It's the surgery, not me!!!  Makes my hormones nuts, my skin break out and makes me moody. I'm very bitchy right now about a lot of stuff. Can't help it. It's a good thing my boyfriend is patient with me. I told him, you have now seen me at my worst. Hey, he still loves me!!!
