xpost: Here are some before and after pics

Thanks Nicole!  How are you feeling now?

I am feeling very good Melissa.  I cannot wait to get rid of these drains and the binder so that I can wear normal clothes again!!  NOthing like having to wear my bigger pants again!!  Yuck.

I will post 1 week post op pics and my pre op pics a little later

It is crazy we go though all that just to be more swollen again.. and wear bigger pants right!! Do not worry it is temporary... soon no more drains and smaller pants.  I love my binder but at the same time I don't feel comfortable wearing pants and that together.. been still wearing a lot of "stretchy" stuff bc of it even tho I am smaller.  Those capris are not the most comfortable with the binder.. I coudln't wait to change when I got home! no lie.. lol

I can't wait to see your pics.. let us know when u post them!!  Glad you are feeling well Nicole.  That is awesome!

Thanks Jodi - that smile was for you ;-) I promised.  I wouldn't show my teeth as I am getting some no prep veneers on so I have a whaler of a hillbilly gap that is just so not fun right now LOL.  Back to work with new bod, weirdo teeth.  Got a chicklet? I need one.  LOL

Mine are my two front incisors.. HOW FUNNY! I look like a the hillbilly with great bod.  Can't be perfect right?!?! LOL.  Yes we could do quite the HeeHaw tune couldn't we! ROFL.. my surgery sister in the flesh.  Love ya girl.  Work is good.  DIdn't sleep a wink today though, not used to sleeping during the day apparently.  48 hours no sleep.. AHHH coffeee.. must.. drink... coffeee.... LOL!!

Have a good rest of the weekend!!!!!

Your transformation is just incredible. You can tell in the before picture that the thinner, radiant Melissa is just busting to come out. I think it's just amazing how our thinner outer shell finally matches our inner self. You are such an inspiration, Melissa!

Thanks so much Renee.  I have people at work tell me all the time that my inside finally matches my outside.  I can't think of a nicer compliment really.  Thank you so much!  I appreciate all you girls more than you know on here!

Stunning!!!
