*I have uploaded pics I just took about an hr ago.

Its day 10 and OMG...swelling is sssoooooooo real. I had drain 1 removed yesterday and I swole up way worse than any other day that I've been home. I noticed stress will blow you up in a matter of 5 mins...so dont let anyone upset you or even bother you enough to get you going. Hope everyone had a wonderful Saturday and will be blessed tomorrow(Sunday)

I just looked at all of your pictures.  You should be so proud of your beautiful self!  And those plastics pics, what a flat tummy you're going to have.  The pics are a little shaded but I can see how flat you are already.  I bet you'll be jumping up and down with joy when you're able to!

Thank you...jumping up and down, tried that today playing MJ on wii and that was a BAD idea. But I do love my results. Looking at myself gives me motivation for when i can start to work out again.

Kfree,
Its amazing how much of that swelling activity occurs. I purchased a cute demin skirt (*I left the price tag on it). I purchased it 2 weeks after surgery (it was on sale and I figured if it didnt work out I could return it ). This past week I had to retun it, the skirt was too BIG! So many pants and even tops have changed how it looks on this new shape, exciting, scarey, and just a big bundle of emotions tied into it!

***Love your mesage on your mirror!

Carmen-

I know the feeling...After 2 shirts I bought the other day..I will not buy anything else for a while because I refuse to have to take it back. I tried on my pre-op jeans and they are falling off..so thats good...but that means when I go back to work EVERYTHING will be TOOO big. Cant and will NOT complain about that though . The message on the mirror was part of the last sermon I heard at church the Sunday before surgery. He has brought me a long way..and im following his steps the rest of this journey! I was givin a second chance at life..lucky me he included the actual physical change also. Be Blessed

K.Free,

I noticed the same thing. One drian was pulled Friday and I blew up and the second was taken out this morning and the skin feels so tight like its gonna rip. Still 1 more drain and it keeps staying at high levels. Hoping nexy monday it will come out, he said if its low friday to call and come in. Congrats!!! WE have gone thru torture and survived.

OMG,today #2 was pulled and I felt once again like I blew up super fast and I was extra tight. Over the last couple of hrs its has gotten a little better but its a different kinda tight. I go next Friday for the final clean up and 3 1/2 week check up. Im gonna take pics and post tomorrow most likely but if I look like a blimp I will not. We riding this out...we went through the hard part already...just #HEALING&FULLRECOVERY from here. I love that I know someone walking the journey at the same time.
