Thank Goodness.  It has been quite an interesting 2 weeks.  This last Tuesday I had to return to the hospital for a couple of nights.  Drains stopped working and filled up with edema.  So they had to fix the drains and give me meds for the edema.  I was really so swollen I thought I would bust.  And it hurt.

So feeling much better now.  Just more uncomfortable than pain.  Still have 3 drains.  Can't wait till I have them out. 

But I must say my new body looks great.  Love my boobs and waist and but and tummy.  What a difference.  Dr. took off 17 pounds of fat and I weighed myself and I am already down 10 pounds on the scale.  Yahoo!!!! 

So hopefully recovery will now be easier than the first 2 weeks. 

Just want to share with all my buddies

Hugs

P.S.. Diane called and left you a message yesterday.  How are you doing?

Ahh that would have been nice.  You know your welcome anytime. 
Carrie told me you called  but that was when I was back at the hospital.  Mom so confused these days.

Cant wait till I have another 2 weeks under my belt.  When all stitches are gone, and drains too.

CAn't wait to see you.  I will post pictures soon as drains are out.

Love you

I know exactly what you mean.  Drains no fun.

But I have a question, did you get your bikini for Hawaii?  LOL

Drains suck. :(

I did get my bikini!

I bought a handful of bikini bottms for super-cheap and yesterday I finally found a top that holds my big boobies and matches almost all the bottoms I bought. When I get to hawaii I will buy another top.

How are you getting around? It sounds like you got help and such...is it  pain in the ass (literally) to go pee-pee? :)

Wishing you well and congrats on your new body.  I am scheduled for plastics on December 30th and I am so nervous (and I still have 2 months before I even have surgery). Keep us posted.

It sure is good C'ING LESS OF ME!

 

We could learn a lot from crayons: 
some are sharp, some are pretty, 
some are dull, some have weird names, 
& all are different colors....but they

ALL exist very nicely in the same box.
