BTDT Ladies with easier/faster recoveries...question

By txcntrygrl on 27 Apr 2011

Were you considered in shape prior to surgery? What I mean is did you work out and physically fit or not? I'm curious if it helps your pain and speeds recovery.

Definitely being fit and in shape prior to surgery is a big bonus!  It will help in not only the recovery process but your final results as well.

YES - Being in top notch physical shape absolutely helped with my recovery. From what I can tell, reading other TT stories, I had a much easier time recovering and bounded back much faster than most. I never needed help in/out of bed; in the shower; etc. Click on my name and read my story.

I am day one post op today and was in tip top physcial shape. I am walking almost upright already, have needed no help in/out of bed and very little pain.

Being in shape definitely helps!
