Hey All,

So it's day...4 after my plastic surgery, and I'm finally capable of well, not just sleeping. I'm propped on a couch, legs up, fully supports, yeah yeah...

The pain is SERIOUSLY minimal. It's awesome. I love my surgeon and I don't even know what fully look like.

Oh, and vicodin. Duh.

My surgery wevnt very smoothly, in spite of it taking *11* hours. Jesus. I better look good at the end of this. My nurse just called to check in and said that the total is:

1 LBL
5 point if lipo (arms. flanks, thiigh, ass, mid back).

4 lbs of skin
5 lbs of fat.

And I'm officially out of fat, according to my surgeon. No more weight loss, he said. WTF!?!?!

Anyway, just thought I'd check in before the Vicodin kicks inzzzzzzzzz....

<3,

Shira

Hey Shira
Glad to hear  you are doing well....damn girl 11 hours - mine only took about 5 -  you obviously had way more done than me....well duh - I didn't have any lipo at all.  I Just the tummy tuck/adbominoplasty and breast lift with augmentation....what all did  you have done girl....you are gonna be rockin hot for sure.  To bad you are not more up and around and could come see us at LB Coffee this sat....maybe next month if you are still in CA.

I know what you mean about the pain meds but I had Percocet - Oh Yeah Baby.  Mainly cause I can't take vicoden at night as it keeps me awake....

So hang in there girl and take it very easy...can't wait to see some pics...I clicked on your profile and I guess its private or something I couldn't see it.

Congrats girl - aint it awesome.

I had basically below the bra line to mid thigh, but no thigh lift. Lots of "tailoring" was done. Apparently the skin and lipo were done after 8 hours, the last three were "sculpting" perfectionism. Considering I feel great, I have no complaints!

I had a Lower Body Lift with Lipo and Anchor Cut Tummy Tuck, whatever they call this stuff, lol.

I'll definitely be in Cali for a while, and if I'm driving, I'll totally come!! My profile is private (crazy ex), but I'll let'cha in!
