TMI down 6 pounds in a day from 20 pound weight gain

i gained 20 pounds recently and super fast. I feel that it is weak weight because I am only up one size to an 6 to an 8. I am 5'6 ... Some  know I do green smoothies and eat clean.  not saying i dont indulge sometimes on a fried wing.  Generally I am a clean eater.   Being on steroids opened a new sugar & fat door for me and getting off topamax my body went crazy this last 5 weeks.  I think I have a handle on it now. and this last week or so eating had purely been habit.   Also a test because I found out I am allergic to so many foods.  Oh gosh that is another post and will post it.

 

I know i know TMI.  but i took a large bowl movement today totally different than eating clean.  i can see the difference of a  polluted bowels.  I know I havent been around and most of you dont know me.  I even think its weird jumping in like this.

 

Anyhow, being here on OH this last day, being connected I realize how important it is;  I lost connection but what happened was life and jobs.  yes jobs. I worked worked worked through the economy saving my home. and I did it!

Other than me being sick, and now breaking out in a cold. I am going to go through with the TT/plastics

its just a matter of question do I have surgery April 22,  or do i postpone because of this cold.  The doctor says wait a few days to see how i feel.  

My holistic doctor just called.  I am going in for an intravenous double meyers ****tail with a glutothione kicker. he says this should help.  I also took oil of oregano. After today no more vitamins or herbs in case i go to surgery.

If i have to postpone surgery it will only be a couple of weeks. Probably the first week of May. I have been thinking about this a very long time.  working through my fears...  today I think I am ready and would love to hear about the recovery part, what to expect with TT, Breast lift & implants, lipo, fat injected to the buttocks, any experiences.  What I need for the hospital, to pain management, and if I dont have a recliner how can i sleep.  All of it.   I am ready ....  scar acceptance and all.   I do have a fear of not waking up.  I didnt with the VSG but I do with this surgery.  Maybe because of all the work.

I can only speak to the tummy tuck part - recovery sucks.  The incision was easy.  The drains were a pain in the ass and no fun to deal with, but not  painful, even when they were pulled.  If you're lucky, you'll have minimal separation of your muscles.  That's where all the pain/spasming comes from, and it's not fun.  DO NOT COUGH, SNEEZE OR LAUGH!  You'll swell and it's uncomfortable as hell.  You'll be hunched over from the muscle repair, and your lower back will hurt.  I never bothered with a recliner and just got many pillows of different sizes and shapes and used them as supports in my bed.  

The good news is that recovery will come to an end and you'll have a nice, flat tummy.  You just have to muscle through and get there.
