Tummy tuck w/lipo to the flanks

I've been on vacation the last few days. Visiting family for the holidays. Took a 5 hour flight. It wasn't bad. I am batteling swelling at the moment. Morning is the best time (less swelling). It gets bad in the evening. I am walking straight now it took me about 4.5 weeks!! I'm still sleeping on my back. Sleeping on sides barely. Feels weird. I have stitch ends sticking out from inside my belly button, ps said they will dissolve on their own.

Today marks 3 weeks since I decided to have this surgery. I had a full tummy tuck with liposuction of the flanks. 3 weeks later here I am, still recovering. The first two weeks were tough because I got a cold. So, I was coughing a lot for the first two weeks. I have no idea what my scar looks like, the tape is still on. Now, I have been wearing I was feeling helpless because I have been taking things super easy and have not technically returned to my office or my house duties. My fiance is so busy and grocery shopping & house keeping has taken the back seat. Yesterday I decided to take advantage of Vons delivery, it was the best thing I have done through this recovery process. I wish I would of done it before. I recommend this delivery service for people that need extra help. So today my groceries were delivered and that's another thing off our list. There is still something wrong with my Belly button, so still babying it. My back still aches because I am still slightly hunched it is getting better every day. I am going to be one of lucky ones that is took a full 3-4 weeks to stand completely straight.
