Vanish This Trucker Belly! - Mississippi

Complete!!! Step 2 to a New Me - Tupelo, MS

I'm starting to feel a little pain now. Not too bad, but bad enough for me to want to take my meds a little earlier. My nurse just called to check on me and she was tickled, my doctor called her as soon as he released me and talked to my husband yesterday to tell her hour proud he was of what he did. He said they are perfect!!! Se also said I could take my ace bandaging off and just wear my support bra! In the morning I get my hair done so I'm a little nervous about the wash chair but I WANT my hair done, its in a clip right now and I hate it and I look terrible, I'm so pale. I'm going to have them do my makeup too lol

You are so welcome! I hope to post some more videos this weekend. I actually have some free time!!

My credit cards are doing ok now that I'm getting a paycheck again! Lol

Hi ladies! I've been meaning to do some updates. Life has been crazy! I expect to be able to do some videos this weekend. But in the meantime... I'm back to work. The first week was horrible! I guess when I only mentioned 100 times to my bosses and my husband that I could not come back full force it fell on deaf ears. I was set up to drive 500 miles the first day out. The second day I was handed the wheel with over 700 miles to drive, the load was loaded incorrectly which caused the vehicle to ride like a dirt bike! That night, about 4 hours into my shift my skin busted open in two places where my staples had previously been. I took a stand and shut the rig down, took pain meds for the first time in week as well as a muscle relaxer and went to bed! The next night I did a lot better and accomplished a full shift. The days are getting easier and easier! My results you ask..... I'm on my way home now, and I didnt go home last weekend, so I can not give you any numbers. But.... I fit very well in my small post surgical garment, I started in a medium after surgery. None of my pants fit me. There's a fashion oops ill go into detail about later. I have no idea what size clothes I wear. I'm shopping this weekend so ill get back to you on that as well as inches lost. As of tomorrow I will be 5 weeks post op and I have come a longggggg way. I hate my garment! I have taken small breaks from it for a few hours here and there while I sleep. Once I get up I'm glad to have it back on. I was told to wear it 6 weeks, then at my post op appointment for get staples removed I was told to wear it 6 more weeks. I have worn it religiously but I do find the need for a break here and there.

Good luck!!
