On the Road to Becoming Flawless - Milwaukee, WI

It is like 3 am in the morning!! I can't believe I am still woke!! lol I figured I would go ahead an do an update before I go to bed... I am 4 weeks and 1 day post op as of now!! Yea!! Time is flying by for me a little bit ...I am not in any pain and have not been since I was 5 days post op. Nor have I been taking any pain meds since then.. I still have a quite a bit of swelling still! But this week I have been experiencing what I believe as some you ladies call it "Swell Hell" . I have not been letting it bother me much but I do hope it goes down by next weekend lol I am having a birthday party then.... I have been doing the massages and Vitamin E oil on my scar & tummy so lets see how things go with that....I am liking how things are looking as far as my tummy and scar! The scabs have been peeling off as I do the treatment everyday so don't be alarmed when you look at my pics!! lol Other than the swelling everything is going well.. I still do my motherly duties but I do try to take it easy still because I still kind of find my self being tired quite a bit but that is improving! I am posting pics that you been waiting for me to do..lol It is just hard for me to do it myself but I did it the best I could so you all can see them good.. For me it's a big improvement but I hope I can improve my results more with exercise when I can start doing them..And of course it may also start to improve when this swelling goes down as well!!! I am not as lucky as some of you ladies whom I see be flat and can't even tell they swollen right away... I know we all are different and there are other factors involved so in the mean time all I can do is wait .. Patience is a Virtue!! Happy Healing Ladies!!

I am 3 weeks today!!! I had a post op appointment Wednesday. My Ps took derma bond tape off of my scar. I longer have wear that bulky binder!!!! I was told to get a spanx girdle and wear that daily for about 3 more weeks. I have to take some pic of scar and tummy. Not to much has changed because their still is some swelling which is to be expected...I have been trying old clothes and new clothes and I am lovin my new look!!! I order a new sexy dress for my birthday party!! I am so ready to show of my new body.. I will be looking into to some gym memberships so I can start exercising and toning up when my 6 weeks is up!! Happy Healing to everyone!! Remember to take one day at a time!!

Well today I am 2 weeks post op!!! I feel pretty good.. I have been of my pain since I was 5 days post op. I still have some swelling but I believe each week it gets better. I got both drain removed at my first post op appointment and that was March 7...And what a relief that was because they end up being nuisance to me! I am just starting to walk standing up straight this week also but when I swell I do become hunched over a little bit. But otherwise everything is good!! Happy Healing everyone!!!
