sorry ladies i haven't posted much on here...but i do read all the updates...= ) Well ladies today is 7 weeks post op...let me begin by saying that this journey has been wonderful....life changing!!! I've realized who my real friends are and who needed to be eliminated! ok now that i've gotten that off my chest here goes my recovery....belly is flat as a board in the morning and I love it!!! come 3 pm i could be about 4 months prego but its getting better or so i tell my self...= ) I've been wearing my girdle faithfully during the day and at night i still wear my Cg...I've been able to sleep on my belly but then i just roll over to my side, i know I have problems..lol I've lost a total of 16lbs i am now at 123. As for my result yes im very happy but like we all know we can be our very own critic and Im starting to see some flaws...1st my left side there is a crease and doctor did confirm it is fatty tissue he said i can lose it when i lose more weight?2nd I might have a dog ear on my right hand side doctor said give it another month so more swelling could go down, he would take care of this at no charge. Im starting to think that me being swollen looks like me being fat...he said i look great and that i will be good once i start hitting the gym and toning up. I got the okay to hit the gym but to listen to my body and do only what i think is fit at the moment (not to over do it) he also said it was okay to start doing sit up??? i dont know about that one, i still roll out of my bed? lol i got the okay to carry my baby huey 34lbs baby....(20 months) that made me happy...i wish i could post all my pix but my computer wont take the files very fustrating!!! Well ladies over all this is the best discesion ever finally it was about me...my confidence is back my smile is back, my laughter is back and just the Joy of going into my closet and i get to wear what ever i want...My boys finally got their MOMMY Back...= ) with every thing that I've gone through these past 8 years this is a new begining to be a much better person to love me for me and most of all to be able to live life to the fullest....! happy healing ladies...= )

Hey Judygirl! Time is going by so fast. Has it really been 7 weeks since your procedure? That's almost 2 months. Wow! I agree with you that we are our worst critic. Although I look much better than I did before, I feel I could be flatter. I can't wait to hit the gym. Hopefully, with so much fat gone from my midriff, fat from the other parts of my body will come off faster. Well, I'm glad to hear that you are doing well.

As for posting pictures did you try: saving the picture onto your desktop; click on "Write a Review;" click on "Add Another Image," select "Browse," select the picture you want to post, click "Open" and repeat these steps until all pictures you want are added. "Submit" once you're done. Hope this helps. :))

Well ladies yesterday was my first day in the office after 3 weeks of recovery....Im covering for one of the receptionist so I get to sit all day....well there was no pain unless I sneezed....but very minimal compare to 2 weeks ago...well for my buddy SWELL it really kicked in to gear! I was sooo huge at the end of the day I was sooo sad.....I mean I've accepted the fact that swelling is part of the process but yikes!,,,, I've been drinking lots of water which means I have to use the ladies room a lot more...other than that it went smooth....oh wait the haters yes there was a few....did not mention it or even look at me directly but I could see them looking with the corner of their eye! As a matter of fact one of them came all dressed up today mind u she always wears her flops and jeans...lol. I'm like cool but girl what can u do about ur face and teeth...I'm just saying lol. I will try to down load the pix I've been promising.....happy healing ladies....
