I'm Home and Recovering... Dalton PS Update...

Hey Dalton, glad to hear you're doing well.  That was a lot of surgery.  I'm 3 weeks 3 days post LBL myself now.  It's not for the faint of heart, but is going to be so worth the pain and the expense.  I am still swollen some and had to have fluid aspirated on Wed and most likley will need it again this coming week, but it wasn't too bad.  I started out with 4 drains and now they are all gone.  One of them would still be in but it wasn't working anymore and was leaking so she took it out, hince the fluid build up... 

Take care of yourself and believe me, it is going to be so worth it!

I too have not been on OH for a long while, thought I would check in on some that I had seen in my early days.  I am post op 1 year now and down 102 pounds.  I feel great, would love to have some plastic surgery on my gut but I think some additional exercise may help me.  Just waiting for the weather to break a little to get out and walk.  Glad to hear you are doing great, it is amazing how this surgery helped all of us.  It seems so unreal that you have gone down as much as you have, it is just amazing what the medical field can do for us now.  Well I need to get back to work, just wanted to shout out to you.
