Dr. Wittenborn says I am healing very well and I am a good patient.  He also said I could start wearing spanx after weeks Post-op. 

I only have small amt swelling and more tightness in evening which he says is totally normal.  

After the appt I went to try on uniform pants cause I want to go back to volunteering in the hospital which will have to be a sat down position soon.  OMG I took a Large and when all swelling is gone and I just loose about 10-15 pounds I will surely wear a medium OMG I cannot believe it. 

With the hernia and pannis I always had to get a 2X or 3X  uniform pant and take in the legs.  I don't have to do anything to the pants but wear them.  I am just so happy.  This is a whole new world to me.

Dr. also said I should not have anymore surgeries of anykind until cardiac issues are taken care of for at least a year or two cause he said I scared them half to death.
