Been going crazy this week, I have to take 2 sick pups to the Dr. but wanted you guys to know... FREE AT LAST, OMG I am FREE AT LAST From the binding garments that is.  After almost 9 weeks I got released to start lifting weights, 6 pack here I come, and to stop wearing those stupid things.  I am so happy. Well I am off to take dog 1 to the vet. Hope everyone is having a great week. Julie

I can go the distance... I do not care how far... I know every mile will be worth my while.

My goal in life is to be as good of a person as my DOGS already think I am!

I am debating putting my back on after pulling a 60 lb and 90 lb bulldog apart this AM from a fight.  I am so hurting.

I had to wear mine longer because my drain clogged and I had a lot of fluid build up.  Normally it is only about 6 weeks.  So breath... I was an exception to the rule.  You will do fine!

thanks for the encouragement.  I know I will be fine.  I have a wonderful doctor to take care of me and the best nursing staff you can find to help.

I can't wait to be free of mine, lol. They told me 6 weeks so I am holding them to it. Actually right now it feels pretty good with the girdle on, so I'm not complaining, I just know it will be hard to work in once I go back to work. I'm just waiting for all the fluid to leave my body, right now most of it is still located in my lower back/upper butt area. Everyday I notice a difference in the swelling disapearing, so I know I am getting closer to the "finished" me. Well, almost finished, now I'm noticing everything else that needs to be nipped and tucked, lol.  Hope the puppies are OK, I hate having sick animals, they can't really tell you what's wrong so it makes it more frightening. Our baby got sick from giving him table scraps one time(never again). I never knew that pork could be so bad for a dog, now I do., it's doggy food only from now on. Keep us posted on how all of you are doing. Best wishes! Mary
