I just found your post tonight and it's been fun reading about your progress. I had my TT the same day you did! You brought back lots of memories, lol. I'm feeling so much better now that it's almost hard to remember how bad the first days were. I was surprised that my clothes weren't looser the first time I started trying things on because my stomach was obviously flatter even the day after surgery. Things are all starting to be looser now and it's exciting to read postings from others saying the swelling will continue to go down for months. Yippee, that will be fun. I've already done some shopping and gotten some dresses that are fitted through the middle that I never would have dreamt of wearing before. I have one that I even bought in two sizes since it's hard to predict how small I'll get. I figured I could return one. I too spend an untold amount of time looking for clothes to hide my bulging, sagging, tummy. It's so nice to put on clothes now and see my flat stomach.
I hope things are still going well for you. I'm so glad I finally did it after years of longing for it. My only frustration now is the lack of energy, but I know that will improve too with time. Remember to keep taking good care of yourself!
