Never had the I can't breathing to deep issue at all or stand straight problem as bad as most are talking about. Still numb from the belly button down. Get really swollen by days end and thats when I feel like I still look the same as before. I will post pics from my phone when I get the chance. Hoping something will start to look up soon.

tomorrow is 4 weeks post and I'm feeling great! Dr said I only have to wear compression garment at night for the next 2 wks, no more day wear. I can go back to Zumba in 2 wks and we are pcs'ing the same time. Healing really good, still lots of swelling though. My man package is starting to go down a lil but still very noticeable to me anyway...lol that's the update here.

You're so funny! Glad you're doing great! I'm four weeks post tomorrow too. Got the all clear to start slowly exercising. Tried out an elliptical today for a bit. I still feel tired but am anxious to get back at it. No crossfit for a while though! Can't wait to start jogging, but need to wAit 2 more weeks. Dr said I need compression garmet for another wk then can transition to spanx. I seem to have love handles now that I didn't have before. Dr. Says it's normal and will subside. I miss wearing jeans! They're still uncomfortable :( happy to hear you're doing soooo well!

Sorry Jeans are uncomfortable for you stilI. I have been wearing jeans but ones that i wore prior to surgery and with the compression garment and my man package i feel like i have a bulge...hahaha I was given the ok for spanx last week but i have yet to go buy any..lol I am scared to not wear my compression garment because i feel like i bloat the second it comes off and it hurts. I stand straight but not all the way straight cause that hurts if that makes any sense..lol if i try to stand fully upright it does hurt i try to a lil everyday in hopes that it wont hurt when i dont have to wear the garment. I told the Dr. I would probably keep wearing it even though I dont have to and he said trust me you will be ok and we had a chuckle from that. Sorry Jeans are uncomfortable for you still. and I can not wait for zumba and I want to give cross fit a try.
