DRUMROLL..... TUMMY TUCK AFTER PICS

OK ALL YOU KIDDIES,          I JUST GOT HOME FROM THE DRS OFFICE NOT TO LONG AGO AND HE WAS SO        PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS SO FAR. HE SAID I WAS VERY SWOLLEN BUT AFTER         GETTING CUT LIKE A CATFISH THAT IS UNDERSTANDABLE DONT YA THINK? LOL          ANYWHO HE TOOK OUT ONE DRAIN AND LEFT ONE... UGH BUT THATS OK... DONT        WANT TO HAVE NO REASON FOR THINGS HAPPENING THAT SHOULDNT LIKE SOME        INFECTION. AND HE TOOK MY HANDY ON Q PURSE AWAY AND SO NOW I AM NOT PAIN        FREE BY NO MEANS BUT HAVE NO PLANS ON HITTING THE VICOTIN.... I AM SO BUT         CAN LIVE WITH IT. I HAD THIS OH SO GREAT SPEECH READY FOR WHEN I SAW HIM      TODAY TELLING HIM THAT HE IS MORE THAN A VANITY TYPE DR AND HE GIVES PEOPLE        LIKE ME A GIFT OF LIVING A NORMAL LIFE WITH ALL THAT SAD HANGING SKIN HANGING.      WELL NEEDLESS TO SAY AFTER I GOT IN THERE AND STARTED MY OH SO GREAT        START TO THE SPEECH I BROKE DOWN AND BALLED LIKE A BABY... I MEAN I COULDNT        EVEN TALK FOR A MINUTE. HE JUST SAID AWWW..... I KNOW I KNOW. AND HE RUBBED MY       ARM. THERE JUST WASNT ANY WORDS I COULD SAY THAT DIDNT HAVE MAJOR EMOTIONAL       FEELING BEHIND THEM.... SO AFTER THE MAJOR BREAKDOWN I WAS OK ENOUGH TO         TELL HIM BETWEEN SNOTTY SOBS HOW PROUD I WAS OF HIS JOB AND WHAT IT MEANT        TO ME.... SO THERE IT IS. MY DAY. I AM VERY TIRED AND WORE OUT FOR SURE. LEON AND         I HIT I-HOP AFTER THE DRS VISIT. HAD CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP BUT WITH NO TORTILLAS. SO WILL HIT THE BED PRETTY EARLY I AMAGINE. I HAD A FAITING SPELL      LASTNIGHT AFTER TAKING OFF THE BINDER FOR SOME REASON. WHO KNOWS WHY.        I AM NOT A PERSON THAT GROSSES OUT EASILY SO HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT WAS       ALL ABOUT. LEON HAD TO WET A WASHCLOTH AND WET MY BACK I WAS DRIPPING        WITH SWEAT AND I WAS BLACKING OUT BIGTIME. I SAT ON THE TOILET TILL FELT BETTER.       WHEN GOT UP AT THREE TO POTTY I STILL FELT A LIL DIZZY SO I KNOW IT WASNT THE        BINDER DEAL. JUST MAYBE GOT UP TO FAST.. WHO KNOWS BUT FEEL OK TODAY. I GO      BACK NEXT TUESDAY FOR THE DREADED OTHER DRAIN TO BE REMOVED. I HAVE TO SAY       HE IS EITHER GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES OR IM STILL NUMB SOME DOWN THERE. IT DIDNT        HURT LIKE I THOUGHT IT WOULD. OH WELL THATS MY DAY... HEADING TO LAY DOWN SOME... KISS KISS HUGS HUGS TO ALL.... AND NO WORDS CAN SAY WHAT ITS LIKE TO HAVE      ALL OF YALL FOR DAYS LIKE THIS.... HUGS MARGE

Hi Marge, Thanks for sharing your pics. You look great!!! I wouldn't know how to act with my apron. Glad your healing well. ((((soft hugs)))) Diana

hi diana! how are you and the little one doing?

Hi Deb, We are doing fine. He's getting sooooooooo big. He is a good and happy baby. We are blessed. Thanks for asking. ((((hugs)))) Diana

Ummm, catfish!   (oops, sorry!    Haven't had a decent piece of catfish since I moved to CO) Your photos look great, and did he do a boob lift while you were in there?!  Mine certainly don't look as young and robust as yours do!  Mine hang like used tea bags. I know what you mean about being emotional.  When I saw my WLS surgeon last week, I just wanted to hug him until he popped.  He was very low key about it, but deep down, I think he felt just as emotional as I did.  These guys really are lifesavers, and not the candy kind, either. Hugs, Kix

congratulations, marge! you look wonderful!

Thanks for sharing your pictures with us... you look great. I am glad you are feeling good. How long is the recooperation for your surgery? Just curious how much time I would need off work. Take it easy Lynn

Wow Marge....you look great! Thanks for sharing the pics 

You look great, Marge.  It's amazing what a difference having that excess skin removed can make!  Good luck with your continuing recovery.  You're an inspiration to those of us who aren't quite ready for plastics yet.  I look forward to seeing updated pictures in a couple months when the swelling has gone down.  You're gonna be one hot momma!!! Thanks for sharing your journey with us! Kellie

((((((((((Marge))))))))))))) I am sooo happy for you and the difference is just amazing!  Congratulations!!!
