I'm still in my binder and I'm 4 weeks in. My PS said 6 weeks in binder. I'm still hunched over a bit. It takes so much time to recover, it's major surgery. Listen to your body. Be patient. My friend said it took her months to feel 100%. So just relax and don't over do it and the results will come. Post surgery frustration and depression are normal. I have ups and downs all the time. You're gonna be fab in no time :-)

Yeah have had lots of break downs. It's so hard to have to depend on everyone for so much. I am still in my binder, I bought a flexess, it did give me tummy support but realized it was doing anything for my flanks. So back to the binder, I actually feel more secure with it. Are you swollen, and do you look the same as day one?

I am swollen. I don't think I look the same as day one. Slightly less swollen. I started not sleeping with binder on, but def need it throughout the day.

I think you look great, give it some time, it is major surgery so rest and let your body heal. You will be rockin your new confidence in no time. Happy healing.
