Has your "pooch" went down? I have a seroma and I look even bigger than your do with the swelling. Just wondering if its ever going away.

Thanks. :). As you know, its hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm a hair stylist, so I'm still wearing a compression wrap around while I work.

I looked at your pics. Your tummy is so flat! Not sure why mine isn't yet. I am excercising, and I stand doing hair all day. I'm sure that doesn't help with the swelling. Thanks for the words of encouragement.. And I'm determined to at least get a 4 pack out of this whole thing! As soon as I can start doing sit ups again, it on! :)

Thanks! And my tummy isn't always flat I'll tell you that! It's best first thing in the morning. It definitely took a few weeks to get this flat :) You're doing great! I'll be excited to watch your progress :)

You look great! I def think you are still swelling a ton. This is such a long recovery process but will be SO worth it when all healed.
