It is at times... it's still uncomfortable to go from sitting to standing after I've been at my desk for a while at work, but mostly it's ok. I work two jobs, one sitting at a desk, and the other one standing up and I find that I feel sore and a little uncomfortable after standing up for a while too. Nothing unbearable and it gets better every day. And yes, getting back in the gym feels wonderful! Excited to go again tonight
Thanks for the encouragement! I went and bought a spanx bodysuit last night that I plan on switching to tomorrow. I think I may continue to sleep in the regular CG at night though. Tried doing some light arm weights last night and was surprised at how tight my arms were - like I needed to stretch before even trying to exercise them. Starting tomorrow I'm going to get back on the treadmill and continue with light (3lbs) weights with more reps. The post-op sheet I got said no "vigorous" exercise until 6 weeks. I'll probably try jogging before then, but nothing crazy. Glad you got the green light for Zumba! Should be fun :)
Hey! Healing is going well - I haven't posted any pics lately because I developed an allergic reaction to something (probably one of the meds) on my lower abdomen. Been benedryling myself every night before bed and its finally looking better. Other than that it's just the normal soreness and I'm SO ready to be done with the CG. Tomorrow is two weeks so I was planning on posting some more pics and an update then :)
Oh that definitely has something to do with it! I had the same problem - get you some Colace (or the generic brand). Take one before bed and you should be better the next day or the next!
