Well I made it through the TT Surgery. They rolled me into the OR still awake and it was SCARY!! But then all I remember is them stapping my legs to the table and Bam! Im in recovery

I am Incredibly soar - I, taking percocette every 3 hours cause I am a wimp and cant make it any longer. I have my 2 lovely JP drains (YUCK) that leak by my groind, but they said its normal.
Oh and I got to see my new belly button this morning! its small and cute!!

Thanks for all the support

Welcome back- Wimp- doubtful.  It's scary as heck when you are in the OR looking around and knowing soon, you won't know a thing.  Was your PS covered by insurance?  Keep your chin up you are on the road to recovery. 

No I didnt have coverage - skin removale is specifically excluded - I got a great credit card from a local Credit Union with a fixed rate to finance it.
Now I am working on a breast reduction to be covered....

that was really quick!!!

Take it easy and get your protein in so you will recover quickly. 

Oh I know I was home so nice and quick!!
I cant wait for a protein coffee!

YEAH!!   It's small and cute and your probably swelled some....it's going to be super cute in a couple of weeks!

I cant wait to be able to see more of it - I had a huge belly button before!!

Congrats on making it through! I know that TT's are incredibly painful, so be careful!

Excited for you! And hope your soreness subsides quickly. You'll be beyond thrilled once you get the recovery phase out of the way. Congratulations.

Yeah the RNY was like a walk in the park. This is more like a hike up a mountain!! But I'd do it again in a heartbeat
