and will post more later! But here's how things are now. Thanks for your prayers and support: Surgery is over! [Edit Post] Hey everyone! I am so sore and can't do much of anything. It hurt so much afterwards, nothing like I've felt before. I know it will be worth it in the long run, but OMG I was in tears when they wanted me to get up and walk. I was hunched over and was taking the smallest steps you could imagine.. I only made it a few steps and begged them to take me back to bed. It was only supposed to be an overnight stay, but I had to stay 2 nights because of the severe pain. We tried a few meds, the only thing that seemed to work was the loratab and I had to take double of that. We were so lucky that Dave's stepmom was here because she had the girls for two days while I was in the hospital, the hospital was 2 1/2 hrs away and it would have been silly for him to drive home and then come get me the next day. One night he stayed at his Dad's house and the other night he stayed at the hospital with me. My stomach is so tight I can't even believe it, it feels like someone has taken all of my skin from me and I really have a waist. I can't wait until I can wear jeans again and see what they look like. I am very happy with it and the scars aren't that bad and will look better with time. The breasts, omg, they are like nothing I've had before. They are a little small compared to what I'm used to, (never thought I would have small breasts) but I really like them better and the best part of it is they don't hang at all. I wouldn't even need a bra. They are up there! lol! I'm really happy with them! Thanks for your prayers. I've missed ya! I have taken pics and will post them when I have more energy. OH AND THEY TOOK 4 POUNDS OF SKIN!!!!!!!

Janie- glad to hear you're home safe and sound and that they finally found a ned that kicked in... did you have a c-section with the twins? Was it similar, worse- how much worse? You sound sooo happy I am so excited for you. Please take it easy and don't overdo!!! Glad you're back- Holly

Wow, Janie...4 pounds of skin off of your already tiny body? That's amazing! I can't wait to see the results. And there is nothing quite like high and tight boobs...I had them for about two seconds after I had my breast reduction 11 years ago...of course they came back :o(. Now...go relax and recover and take care of yourself. ~Suz
