26 Yr Old Male Veteran That Lost 52 Lbs and Was Ready for my Old Body Back - Austin, TX

So there is no change really as of now. It's been about a week and a half since the procedure and it still looks just as bad as it did pre-operation, but I'm patient enough to know it won't stay this way (better not). Pain is very little and only when I'm in a compromising position. I ran two miles and did abs and felt fine. My post op appt is tomorrow. The site is not bruised anymore but parts of it are hard and lumpy. This is a common side effect of this kind of thing. Well I hope I see results soon!

So it seems to me, the more I read about my procedure the more I agree with anxiety filled by the patient. You spend all this money money that you would love to spend another things but you know you want to do something for yourself for a change. And when you don't see results right away you feel like you just wasted your money. So that is the stage that I am at right now it's still a lot of swelling and I know it's not a permanent, still makes you question it's worth.

Alright enough of the sobbing. So it seems the itching has gone away for now I'm not sure if that is a paint by everybody he was just what was happening to me as far as the pain is going in the midsection it does her is more tender than hurt it definitely doesn't hurt like it did before. Now it just feels like I'm just holding a lot of water especially in my lower back.The one problem I did not foresee in doing this procedure, I did not take into account how it would affect me tonight to work out as much as I used to so I've been supplementing long walks to make sure that I keep on track

So it's nearing the end of the fourth day or fifth day it's kind of confusing on this blog. Tomorrow is my post operative appointment with my doctor so he can take a look at how I'm doing and so far I mean I really love what I'm seeing I know it's only going to get better. Now as far as the pain level goes it varies from time to time usually worse in the morning and it tapers off around noon. One of the worst parts about the postop symptoms is the itching , That's basically what I'm dealing with right now. Updates tomorrow y'all!
