I had an LBL and I don't know if that makes a difference with respect to swelling.

I'll be 3 weeks PO on Tuesday. On Friday I had on my preop shorts... With my binder, and sporting 1 last drain they were still too big. I was able to tuck the drain inside my shorts to help hold them up. I think that will be the last time I will be wearing those....
Preop I was a 14-16..... On Friday I purchased a pair of Lee jeans from the clearance rack for $13.20 - another 15% with my coupon. With my binder and my swelling I could snuggly and I mean snuggly zip them..... They were a size 10... WOO HOO
I think the swelling may be because you did so much work at once. You are my PS hero... I just did a LBL and left it at that.
