That is a awesome price. I will have to make a trip to Walmart. My lower stomach swelling is finally coming down giving me hope to see flat at some point. So I'll go to do some shopping to lift my mood so more :)

Little retail therapy always does the trick! Glad to hear about your swelling! Are you up & moving around more normally?

Yes I am been walking about 10 thousand plus steps a day. Getting stuff done around the house and driving, driving sucks though its still very uncomfortable to do. Still can't put my own socks and shoes on the lower tummy is so heavy I can't move around it

First off, you look amazing! I love our belly button! Is that weird to say? I am saving the picture of it for my upcoming surgery. Quick question, I have a consult with Pederson coming up...why did he use drains on you? I am going to him because I know he uses the "drainless painless" method. Just curious why yours required drains? Were you surprised to have them after the surgery? Interested in your feedback. Thanks in advance.

Good choice going to Dr. Pedersen! He used one drain only because I opted to have liposuction with my TT. If I just did the tuck & diastasis repair, there would not have been a drain. So, if you have lipo, you can expect a drain. He's wonderful....you'll be happy you chose him. Very talented, kind surgeon. Good bedside manner.

Hello,
I'm scheduled next month with the doc for blift and yt?. How's your pain and healing process? He said all I needed was 1 week off from work. Any suggestions on items I should purchase for pain scaring etc.
