Upcoming Tummy Tuck - Amherst, NY

I got up this morning, 9 wks and 1 day post op, and all of my work skirts and pants are tight! What?! They've been fine so far... what happened overnight to cause this?! I had a serious meltdown while getting ready for work ???? I didn't wear my usual compression garment yesterday - I wore a compression camisole instead. Does the garment have that much of an effect?? We had Mexican for dinner - I had my usual, a taco salad (in a bowl) with grilled chicken. I did endulge in some chips and quacamole. Could they have done it?? The added salt?? Maybe if effected my body this way before, but there as so much extra skin I didn't notice?? The scale didn't change -- but I had one hard time buttoning my dress pants! Back to my usual compression garment, and watching my salt intake today in hopes that tomorrow is a better day! ????

I'm 9 weeks post op today... and recovery is going very well! I started scar therapy - I've been using BioOil twice a day. I hope it works bc I'm not too crazy about my incision line. The one side is ok (nice and low) but it comes up a bit higher on the other side - but it's MUCH better than the ugly skin that used to be there!!! If anyone has any other products that have worked well, let me know!

I walked a 5K over the weekend and felt great after! I'll start jogging a little more, but will ease into it at a skier pace than I did last week. I was sore and swollen for about 2 days after that time on the treadmill. I'll get there though ????

My happiest moment so far -- I went to a gala over the weekend and wore a dress that I had purchased over a yr ago. I haven't worn it before bc it looked terrible on me -- but I didn't want to get rid of it bc "it'll look good someday." Well -- I wore it to the gala and felt so awesome! ????
