Back to work and its all about swelling, swelling and some swelling - Fort Lauderdale, FL

So Monday was my 4wk PO and I also went back to work. So when I leave in the morning im pretty flat, some swelling but you can see my shape...when I get home from work after a 11hr day I look like im 3m pregnant. WTH. I have my CG on 24/7. I do sit at a desk all day but OMG. How can I avoid this from happening? I started drinking pineapple juice to see if it helps, I hope so because its very depressing...what if the swelling never goes away...I dont know what to think. I havent updated my 4wk PO pics, I will if and when my swelling goes away....has anyone experience this too?

Went to PS yesterday and all seems to be ok other than the constant swelling between my BB and scar area..I know patience is the key but gosh, feels like it just doesnt want to go away. The morning its puffy but by mid afternoon it looks like i have a kangaroo pouch...I really hope this is just swelling and not permanent..
Im going back to work on Monday the 8th, that'll be 4wks po exactly. I tried to go back at 2wks PO but after 1 day back, I had to take additional time off.
I've lost 10 lbs so far on a positive note.. Actually all is positive except for the pouch. Will start scar treatment this week, I have mederma and bio oil, not sure which one i should go with or both.. I have started putting and massaging with cocoa butter especially since my skin starting drying up. Im still in search of a good comfortable CG, I have a crothless columbian one from fajas by Diane but its so hard to get on and I havent been able to do #2 (excuse my french) with it on, not sure why, but i just can't so i need something to give me the compression that i need but also allow me to do what i need to do when nature calls.. Anyway my sista's if anyone has any tips on any of my complaints, please share.... If I had to do this all over again......I wouldnt think twice, I would do it over and over again..I know the recovery process is extensive and long but I have faith its going to be all worth it at the end of the day.
Happy Healing to all!!

I have a columbian CG but im thinking of getting a spanx one. Seems like alot of girls get the spanx as their CG...theres so many different ones that im wondering what is everyone's preference....hope to get alot of feedback as im looking into getting one soon.
Happy Healing all..
