I'm home boys and girls and feeling better then I expected but exactly as God destined.  I had a lower body lift, an upper back lift, mons lift, breast lift and lipo suction.  He removed 15lbs.  I came home with 2 drains and a foley. 

I am doing WONDERFULLY lots of tightness but hardly any discomfort.  My drains are barely drinking, I am practically jogging around the house, not really, but my pain...well my pain is almost non-existent.  Which is such a blessing...

Any questions feel free to ask and for now it's almost nap time.

Oh Ms Shell -

I am so happy to hear you are home and pain is very little.  Girl after seeing Monica's scars, and now what you have gone through I am frightened what it will be like for me.  But you are handling it quite well, and Monica did also.

Can't wait to see you at the coffee and you should send us pictures.

Same question as Monica:  What's a foley?  I think it is a drain of sorts as well, but not sure.

Anyway, you get your sleep, and post to keep us updated.

Thanks and much love

Annette

sorry a foley is a pee catheter...my doctor doesn't believe in you having to get up and down after surgery to go pee, so he leaves it in for like 5 days...

Just the thought of more surgery.  That is still a ways off, by then my thoughts will change when I see all the extra skin.  Whats another few scars across my body.  To date I have (2 c-sections, ventral hernia, hysterectomy {I have a complete cross from my belly button down, across the bikini line}, galbladder {big cut}, and now with the RNY I look like I was struck in a drive by). 

Oh well, my husband luvs me scars and all.  This is what makes me strong and the person I am today.

How you feeling by the way?  Hope you are doing well.  As for the foley well, that is a fabulous thing to have, just remember it is not a wet dream, wait til that thing comes out b/4 you go there (ROFLMAO)   I crack my self up. 

Well, i'm at work, wish you could join us at the walk on Sunday, but you need your beauty rest, and you need to heal.  Take it slow and easy and I can't wait to see that HAWWWWT new body of yours.  By the way, how much do you want me to charge for the plastics show at the next coffee? 

Love ya girl,
Annette
