Thanks to all and update

Y'all are all so sweet. I usually try to answer everyone that replies to my posts, but just haven't been up to it in the last day or so. Russ asked me on the grad's board how I was doing so I decided to make a new post for all. Most of you know that Tuesday I had my medial thighs done, along with a revision to my upper abdomen just below the bra line. Dr. Lerman said he took a pound and a half from each leg. Of course because of the swelling I'm not getting an immediate drop on the scale. The pain is not bad at all now, I've been able to cut way back on the pain meds today. I'm more comfortable in a semi-reclining position than sitting, so I'm typing with my laptop on my lap. I go back on Tuesday morning, hope to get the drains out at that time. When they are out I'll feel like I'll be home free. Am catching up on reading, am hitting the protein extra-hard to aid in healing. Thanks again to all for the wonderful support here, you've really lifted my spirits. Love and hugs, Connie

I'm so happy to hear that you're doing well Connie!!!! Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Congratulations Connie!  Mom told me she saw you in Arlington and told me of your upcoming surgery.  You were already beautiful!  I know it must feel great! I hope someday I can do some tweeking on myself!!!   Take care! Laina

Hi Connie, So happy all is going well. It's encouraging. Before you know it, this will be a memory.
