10 Months PO, Revision Postponed, Baby on the Way!

Following my post last night, I had an emotional breakdown while I sat half naked on my toilet. I cried and whined all while my super fabulous husband tried to console me. I ended emailing pictures of my rollie gut to my PS who emailed me back today. He said it was swelling and all will go away when it does, except the stretch marks which I knew.

I also read horror stories last night about women who had tummy tucks and 2-7 years down the line they are still farkin' swelling!! OMG! How scary! Not to mention sad.

I woke up this morning telling myself, "dude, do not look at your stomach for the next month!!!!! Do not do not!!" I told myself I could have one more peak at it just to see what the hell it was doing today and low and behold to my astonishment it wasnt anything like last night's Ghost of The Pink Marshmallow! I scrunched my abdomen up like I was sitting last night and there was a minimal but acceptable bout of stretch mark looseness under my boobs. I can handle it though.

Later today at work, probably at about 1030-1100ish, I checked again. Mind you, I had been up since 530 so my stomach had loads of time to Pink Marshmallowatize (thats a word, look it up, haha) but again, to my absolute astonishment to the point where I almost pooped

Its been too long! Well maybe not. On Nov 13th it'll be my 3 month mark since my mm. Things are good! I went back to work full duty this past week. I have bruising on my hips from my duty belt against my hip bone. What? Say that again? I have a hip bone!!!!

In my recent updates, I was on the verge of eating my gun because I still had a LOT of jiggle! Well, I am happy to say that my jiggle and swelling have subsided a loooot! I still have some softness in my upper tummy but its not nearly anything to complain about.

My boobs are looking better as time goes by, looking more symetrical and dropping. They don't hurt anymore so that's a win!

I still wear my spanx during the day because doc told me it will help with the swelling. I am swollen by the end of the day as expected. I've picked up my running again. I'm nowhere near my 9:15 mile pace but I'm running 4 miles at 10:30. Not bad for having surgery almost 3 months ago.

I get nothing but compliments from people that know me, even if they don't know I had my pink marshmallow killed or have new boobs. "Oh you lost a lot of weight!" Love it :)

I hope everyone is doing well. Things get better as time goes by!!! Ps. Booze makes the swelling double. Just FYI!
