Day Three

It's true what they say--day three is the worst! I'm swollen all around my middle section. I look like a blowfish! Even my back mid-section is puffed up. My breasts are as hard as a volleyball. They are so high, I feel like they are up to my neck. On the bright side, tomorrow will be better!

Bless your heart. Yes, tomorrow will be better, and everyday thereafter will too. In the thick of the worst pain, can you believe you elected this surgery? Volunteered for pain. Astounding isn't it? What we will do to re-make ourselves. I know you will see the benefits above the pain. Hang in there. You are tough and have reached the top of the hill. Going down will be a piece of cake. Just don't even think about eating it! Hugs, Valorie

Yes, it is astounding what we put ourselves through! The great thing is once it's over, you really don't remember the pain. I just wish that I could imagine the end result because today my waist measured 37 inches!! I measured months ago and it was 34 inches. I wish I measured prior to surgery for comparison. I read that it can take a year or more to finally get to the end result. Ugh!

Focus on tomorrow ! And take a pain pill you rock, Britt

Yea, the pain med makes all the difference in the world. Especially now since I stopped getting it confused with the nausea medicine! That was a duh moment if there ever was one!
