3rd week post op doc visit

 Just came back from my doc appt and everything is going good.  I go back to work in Monday and he said I could as long as I felt up to it.  I am a nurse and part of my job is paper work and part patient care...so I will just go back to the paper work part for a month...no lifting or exercise yet for another month.  I am still having a lot of back pain from the lipo and he said to take warm baths so I am thrilled about that...I love baths and that should help.
He said I am still swollen a nd it will take awhile to go down and that  I should expect to lose a few more lbs when the swelling goes down....yeh!,,
My incisions don't heal we'll...they develop thick scars (keloids) so I have to put paper tape on them for atleast six months.
   I just love my doc and so happy with my results.  I am not sure that I have ever had this flat of a stomach!

So for those of you just fresh post op or soon to be...hang in there, it really does get better!

That is a really great report.  I hope all goes well for you when you return to work, and that is good news for losing a few more!  Bonus

Great news! S

Baths...I am a bath girl and miss them. I'm very jealous!

I can't wait to get the all-clear for baths, too. congrats on your good report. Take it easy at work, PBJ.

Do you still have to wear the binder?

Sounds like you are rockin' and rollin'! Excellent update. Isn't the flat stomach amazing. I KNOW I've never had a stomach tihs flat and I spend probably a little too much time looking at it! LOL!

Glad you're doing great.
