ok heres the details so far. thur 6-2 they started my PS (full body lift) around 6 pm. I did not get in my room till after 2 am. My surgery took way longer than the doctor expected. took him over 6 hours. But I am glad he had patients and did what he did. My incision looks great. wow im impressed. I have 4 drains that are doing well too. Pain on friday It was bad. But the nurses were great they kept me well undercontroled. by saturday I had decided no more pain meds. I did well. walking and up out of bed. sitting in my chair. today I had 2 normal BM's with no help and a shower and back home. I am doing much better than the doctor thought that I would. He was a very pleased surgeon. Did I mention he took 18 pound of skin off me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TO BE CONT..............

Fantastic Heather!! WOW 18 pounds! Congratulations. When I had my LBL last Fall I also felt good but admit that I did too much too soon. Please watch the sodium & get your rest to avoid excess swelling. I couldn't be happier with my results Take care...DN @ GOAL LadyBodFit.com
