So tomorrow is my big day. Just wanted to say that any and all prayers are welcome! I'll post everyone on how I do just as soon as I'm able.

Thanks for all the help to this point.  I'm sure I'll have a thousand more questions after it is all done!

Talk to y'all soon!!

Measurements--great idea! I'm going to get off here and do that now.

Just remember for most of us, it gets worse before it gets better!!

I was up 4 inches right after surgery, but I liked taking my measurements along the way to reassure myself the swelling was getting better. It did seem to take me longer than most to get back down to my pre-surgery measurements (around the 9 week mark, I think). Right now mine are exactly the same as pre-plastics at 11 weeks out. I'm still hoping to go down an inch!! 

Happy, happy, happy for you!! Plastic surgery really made me feel "normal" again.
