I'm really pleased with the results of my Panniculectomy. I feel so much better and even eat a bit less. I have added some new photos taken today.

Before and After
I am finally getting around to uploading some photos of how my stomach looked before and after my Panniculectomy. The transformation is amazing and I feel so much better. Although I am still swollen, I can see how much the surgery has already changed my appearance. I know that when all of the swelling and bruising is gone, I will be totally satisfied with the results. I had an amazing surgeon who is taking great care of me.

Thank you! I am no longer in the binder. My doctor told me to use a body sharper or hi-waist panty girdle so that is what I'm wearing. I had my doctor visit today and everything is going well but I'm still have quite a bit of swelling. I go back to the doctor on June 6th. I hope you are well and healing fine.

Recovering from Panniculectomy
I had my final drain removed on yesterday and now I can actually take a shower. My surgeon was very specific regarding now showering or taking a bath as long as my drains were in. I am so happy that I followed her instructions because they wanted to make sure I didn't get any infections. The swelling is going down some so that is good news. I still have to be careful and take it easy for the next few weeks.

Yes, it is so nice to not have that drain on my side. I am so happy just to be able to take a shower. I am feeling stronger even though I know I still have some healing to do but just to get the surgery behind me is a major accomplishment. I hope to get to my desired weight over the next few months. I hope you are doing well with your recovery and things are healing as they should. I am going to post some photos today.
