Sorry for feeling sorry for myself last night

what a difference a day makes.  I feel much better and feel like I'm looking better.  I think my eyes will be great and my boobies have already settled some and I think they will be the right size C/D cup (I had 300cc high profile gummy bear implants).   I think my abs will be really nice and I hope and pray my booty shrinks as everyone including Dr. S says it will.

I should know better than to post when all emotional.  Thanks for listening everyone.

We're all allowed to feel a little down and sorry for ourselves when we've been taken apart and put back together. It gets better with each passing day...I promise.

I am finally beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel and am feeling more like my new self...it took a solid three weeks to get here. All in good time, Tamara...

Tamera,

You have no need to apologize.  This is just as much of a mental game as it is physical.  You are going to look fantastic, and it will get better.  This is a hard recovery, and your body has been through alot.  Your mind needs time to catch up with that body, so just relax and try to enjoy the ride.

Ditto Jessica. I went through the WTF did I do too many times to count and I was SO tired and lonely I think it made it worse.

I agree with the girls....we all need a little up lifting  now and then. And there is no better place to get it  then from those who have gone before you, have felt what you feel and can use their experience to encourage you!! Glad you are feeling better today...I am confident that in a short time you will be thrilled with your new body ( booty included) Smile :)))

we are here for you.  I don't know how you did it.  I just did the boobs and i was sore to sit up and to think you did your abs too.  I did my panni alone and that was duck soup except the first day just to get up.  You are my hero.  Congrats and hopefully you have a speedy recovery!!! I had the under muscle saline implants and they put in 500cc's I fit a 36 D.  I asked for a full C.  Some of my friends tell me I could have went bigger omg no way this is big enough.  I already look like a Babie doll. 

I have one boob that is higher than the other but I am told that they will settle in 6 months we will see.

Hey Girl - It's the lipo and the butt augmentation that are the most painful.  I had lipo all over my torso, front and back as well as my thighs and hips, then all that fat was injected into my butt.  My mini tummy tuck and boobies don't hurt too much at all.  I had 300ccs gummy bear silicone high profile over the muscle.  I suspect I'll end up a large c or small d cup.  right now the nipples are pointing downward some and I've been told this is common and that the implants will drop but it may take up to 6 months.  I really did not want big boobs just full round perky medium boobs

What I'm most worried about is my butt.  It's freakin HUGE, I wanted nice round perky cheeks like Jessica or TammyGirl  but I got a wide load.  He said it is lipo swelling, and that some of the fat grafting will be absorbed, all I can say is it better be!

I'm still sort of in the phase of why did I do this to myself...  but it gets better every day.

Thanks for checking in on me.
