what are comfy pjs after thigh lift and medial lift
In 2005, I weighed in at 282lbs, today almost 7yrs out I am at 125-130lbs. The extra skin in driving me nuts and makes me very self conscience. I am scheduled for the tummy tuck, butt lift and thigh lift on 1/19/12, I am trying to get an idea of what is considered comfy clothing for the healing after surgery. What do I have to look forward to for the recovery on a daily basis.?
Any and all information will be greatly appreciated

I lived in yoga pants and tank tops post lbl/bl. The first few weeks were rough, but definitely worth it.

I didn't have my tummy tuck at the same time as my thigh lift but I woke up from my tummy tuck in a binder. I was most comfortable in yoga pants and a loose top. After my thigh lift I woke up in a compression type girdle that went to my knees. It had hooks and zippers down the sides. After showering you have to reapply gauze and dressings on your thigh incisions and then put the garment back on. My garment had an open crotch so it didn't have to be taken off each time I went to the bathroom. I just pulled on loose shorts over the top so you couldn't see my bare behind...LOL
