Not much to update except that my scars are healing well. Still continuing my workout regiment and maintaining my weight. Lost a few pounds last month but gained it back---more than likely all muscle weight since I lost inches and clothes are continuing to be loose on me. I'm almost a size 8...still a little uncomfortable when I try the size on. So before surgery size 12 now close to size 8. Progress!

Hello RS ladies!
Sorry I've been MIA here at RS. Not much going on with me except for keeping my routine going. I've been back at CrossFit but not as much as I expected to. After each session, I would swell for two days...yikes. So I've only been doing it once or twice a week and supplement it with Yoga and Pilates. I've also tried to walk at least 4-6 miles a week. I've been watching what I eat but not obsessive about it. I still wear my beloved CG nightly. I swear I think I will have separation anxiety once I quit wearing it. As for weight, I was in the low 170s after surgery, broke through the 160s now and I am fit to be tied to break the 150s....trying hard. Slow and steady is my motto. I still have numbness around my TT incision area but have improved since surgery. I'm a happy C cup which was what a wanted. Here are a couple of photos of before and after at 3 months post op. Hope everyone is healing nicely!

Thank you. I had Valium, Percocet, antibiotics, something for swelling. Then I was given 7 days of blood thinner shots (I gave to myself). Over the counter meds consist only of stool softener. I used a lot of surgical gauze to change over the incisions. Polysporin (not neosporin) to keep incisions clean. Try not to think about it too much. I know the nerves can get to you but do your best to relax. Keep me posted!
