3 Days Until My Arm Lift And TT at Stanford

I had my pre op yesterday (Friday).  I am soooo nervous.  I cannot wait until I am free of this hanging skin.  I am a 25 year old single mother of 2.  I do hair for a living.  Does anyone remember hoe long it took them to regain moderate mobility?  Ive also had 2 c-sections, which pain is worst?  C Section or Tummy Tuck?  Thanks in advance for all of your help.

Dominique Gurl I feel you on the nervousness..omg! I was suppose to get arms and TT done on May 29th originally but my iron count was too low. I have since rescheduled for July 26 and I feel way more nervous about it this time (must have been meant to be). I actually keep saying I'm more nervous about my plastics then i was about wls. How long have you prepare to take of work ? I have prepared for 6 wks to be away and then i will discuss with my employer to maybe do half days for a while. Wow what a coincidence that we both are are having the same procedures both  have had 2 c-sections and plastics in the same month girl we got this with no problems....Best of Luck!

JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU A WHOOP-WHOOP AND A YIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPY-SKIIIIIIIIPPPPY, YA-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWE...!!!

YOUR DAY IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER..CONGRATULATIONS..!

BLESSINGS TO YOU AS YOU START THIS NEW JOURNEY IN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS STORY..!!

I'm also a single mom of 2 and a lot older than you (44). I had the full lower body lift and a pretty intense breast lift. Today is 4 days post-op for me and I'm able to do everything for myself today. I think I'm doing very well and my pain is minimal. In a few days when i get get this dang catheter out I'm sure I'll be doing much better. How long are you taking off work? I'm a teacher so I still have 6 weeks of summer to recover.

I had a TT and a BL and I was out of work for 9 days. (I have a desk job)  I just took it easy. 

Who is doing your surgery at stanford, Dr. kahn?  I am already looking into Plastics.
