It finally happened!  I had ancor cut extended TT yesterday and I gotta say this is the worst pain I have ever felt.  I want to thank you all for the support you gave and the questions you answered.  Through the binder I can see a hugh difference already.  I can't wait to see what I look like without it.  My son has really stepped up and been a tremendous help,  I am in awe.  The drains are very painful and I am just generally really sore all over.  Gonna lay back down.  I will update with some photos later.  Thanks again.

The muscle soreness can be a killer with the TT, but keep up with your meds and you'll feel better tomorrow.  Happy healing!

I sure hope it does soon, very painful.  Today, I can get outta bed by myself, but still quite painful.

The first 3 days or so are the worst. You'll turn a corner soon and you'll  be feeling better. Just stay hydrated and stay on top of the pain meds. Congratulations on your NEW tummy!
