Home from tummy tuck -- going trough exercise withdraw!

OK all, I've read this board for awhile now and I need to keep reading about your daily workouts!!  I finally got home today (surgery was Monday) and had an 'eventful' recovery process.  I have accepted the fact that a spring marathon will probably not be possible, but probably a half is doable. Not that I did anything to cause my need for rehospitalization I learned that this stuff is major and that it'll take time heal and them to build things back up.
Looking forward to getting a new tri-bike in January (at least gonna put a deposit on one by then).  Signed up for the Steelhead (Michigan) 1/2 Ironman  for August and looking forward to that training!  I feel like I'm going through withdraw and need to read your adventures!

You'll be back to it before you know it!

Be good and heal well first, and your fitness will return faster than you think.

Rest up, Sax!!  I know it is hard, but take your time, and heal!!  You'll be back before you know it!!

Take care of yourself!!

I ran a 10k 4 weeks after my thigh and LBL....

Anyhoo-Sherry's biggest piece of advice is REMEMBER TO TAKE STOOL SOFTENER.

I'm a regular pooper so to speak. After my first round of plastic surgery (panni, arms and boobs) I didn't take my softener like suggested. A week later I thought I was gonna have to go to the ER...except there was no phone in the bathroom. Let's just say I had a traumatic event which would remind me of a birthing special on discovery health.

Don't want you popping a drain!
