Got my surgery with Plastic Surgeon for Thighs

February 9th!!!  I'm excited/nervous/scared all at the same time.   Any pointers from the thigh-masters would be appreciated :)

Congrats to you! My advice is to keep your legs elevated when seated or lying down and keep to a low sodium diet to keep your swelling down. To prevent  blood clots make sure you move your feet (I did litle "ankle circles" every so often when seated or laying down) and get up to take short little "walks" around your house. I went pants-less and panty-less until my sutures were removed. I bought a comfortable cotton skirt to wear out and I wore a sarong and a terry cloth wrap around the house. I found this to be more comfortable. I had a toilet seat riser and saftey bars on my toilet to help me get up and down. But my best advice is to get a "pee funnel". I bought a Freshette from REI on the advice from one of the ladies here on OH who was a thigh lift veteran. It was the best advice I received! Here's the link www.rei.com/product/407267 It was undoubtedly the best thing I did to prepare for my thigh lift. Sitting on the toilet isn't a lot of fun those first few days, so being able to stand to urinate was a lifesaver! I took it to the hospital with me. Don't forget stool softeners, drink lots of water and get LOTS of protein to aid in healing. I'm so excited for you and I pray for a speedy recovery and a wonderful outcome for you. God bless.

Thanks for the advise.  I'm having my thigh and breast lift this Saturday.

You are so wecome! I love paying it forward. Best to you on your upcoming surgery!!!! You will love your new perky breasts. Mine are my favorite result! I will pray that everything goes wonderfully for you. Keep us posted and God bless you.
