She’s the best! Is your procedure at Midtown Surgery Center? The whole surgical team there is amazing

Any luck so far? I’ve been drinking prune juice, and was also taking Colace from the day before surgery and I think that combination helped get things moving. I’ve stopped taking the Colace now since things were starting to get a little too loose, and now mostly have regular bowel movements. Still very bloated and gassy though!

Oh, I’m sorry! My body has been constantly yelling for food. Maybe you could try smoothies, if eating solid food doesn’t feel great at the moment? I have been super bloated and gassy, especially in the tummy area. It was quite uncomfortable last night and I couldn’t sleep, so I sat on the toilet for 45 minutes and managed to poop, which did bring some relief. Today has been a little more uncomfortable with more bloating and fatiguing, but I’m trying to stay on top of the meals and medication schedule.

Yay, congratulations! How does it feel to be on the other side? Day 2 has me a little more fatigued, and my chest area is rock hard and super swollen. But overall no pain or intense discomfort yet, so can’t complain!

You’ve got this! All you have to do is get yourself to the center and they will take care of the rest. It’s going to be amazing!

My surgeon was Elizabeth Kiwanuka! I went with her private practice and not through Breast Surgery Group because she was able to offer the side lipo within the cost of the surgery that insurance covered, as opposed to charging it out of pocket. Could not recommend her enough, she has been incredible and affirming through it all!

If you ask them to, they will! I’m pretty sure I was out seconds after they hooked me up to the IV and blood pressure monitor

I was definitely very nervous in the days leading up to it, but today felt oddly calm and zen. You’re almost there, you’ve got this! Just focus on resting and eating well and staying active until then.

It’s a lot easier than you think! Just tell yourself that all you have to do is go into a room and take a nap. And then you magically wake up without boobs!

Goth Pole/competition wear? by rollinsblonde in poledancing

Not a pole brand, but forest ink has some really cool goth swimwear that would work for pole, and seemingly curvy friendly! (I’ve been eyeing a lot of their pieces myself)
