Everything Went Well.....

Well my procedure was in  the morning...bright and early in fact.  I had to be there at 6am which although made me happy to get in and out early, I was of course unhappy to wake up so soon. Everything went really well though and although I am currently experiencing some pain it is very very minor and I didn’t even bother having my surgeon write a prescription for pain pills.  I never take them anyway so what is the point?  The cleavage area that he fixed looks way better than it did.  Slightly swollen right now, I can feel the water under the skin from it but I suspect that in less than two weeks that will be gone.  Also by then the wound itself should look much better and I think I will be comfortable in a swimsuit.  That is of course kinda important to me right now since in 9 days I leave for our trip to California and I will want to be able to at least tan and sit in the pool.  I can’t actually do any real swimming of course...that would be painful...but I can relax in the pool and I am fine with that.  

I will take a pic and post it on here as soon as I can.  I want to try to wait until the scar isn’t so fresh because I think if any of you saw it right now you would think it wasn’t actually looking that great. lol But I swear it is and I feel really pleased.  My implants are still in place and so as long as I continue to be careful my breasts should continue to heal up and I shouldn’t need any more surgeries.   Crossing my fingers for that big time (And praying) because I am just so done with getting put under anesthesia.  

One of my big problems with it is that every time I have surgery and I am put under anesthesia the next while I can’t sleep good.  I had just started sleeping well again a few weeks ago after the last procedure and now here I am, after this one and I went to bed and woke up at 2am...unable to get back to sleep.  I have tried almost everything too.  It’s very annoying and I don’t know why it affects me like this.  So far tonight I have had 3 hours of sleep.  I am for sure going to need a nap.  I hope this one doesn’t last too long, it is very annoying and will do me zero good when we drive to California.  I need to be able to sleep as much as possible then.  I feel like I should maybe start taking a bit of Melatonin at night, that could possibly help me stay asleep.  Think I will do that tonight.  

Anyway, so that is the basic update for now.  Still healing up well...still maintaining my weight...and really just feeling good in general.  Crazy how much this whole weight loss adventure has improved my life.  Yah I have had to go through a ton of reconstructive surgeries...but man oh man has it been worth it.  I feel younger, healthier, and happier.  You can’t put a price tag on that.
