WORTH IT
Pictures from 2 week post op (Saturday 23rd). Walking for more than 5 minutes hurts my back as I'm so hunched over. I can't get myself dressed or cook my own food. It is getting frustrating.
Along with the massive swelling that still makes me feel fat I have the biggest bruise I have ever seen in my life. I was briefly concerned it was a hematoma that would need to be drained b mutual my PS said it's not a concern.

Day 5

My PS came to see me again yesterday. Apparently I'm healing very well! My dressings were all changed and not a single stitch has come away, which is a surprise considering how much I had done.
I am home now, the journey home wasn't terrible and apart from the AWFUL back pain from being so hunched over all the time I'm doing okay.

Day 3

Today has been the best day so far. Been able to get out of bed with no help. Morphine pump has been taken away. Had the catheter and the last 4 drains removed. Never have I been so proud to go pee on my own!
Now I am untethered and off the strong stuff I have officially been given the okay to go home tomorrow. Binders and dressing changed will be on first thing in the morning before getting loaded with morphine to take the edge off the journey home. Can't wait!
I haven't seen the full effects of the surgery yet because the mirror is high up and quite small, plus the fact I'm hunched over like a 139 year old. From the picture I've seen my boobs look mental, but that's expected this early and I look a little boxy and square. I don't know whether it is the swelling making me boxy or that is my natural shape, either way it doesn't matter to me. Getting the surgery at all was the icing on the weight loss cake, being curvy would've just been the sprinkles. I'm thrilled with the results thus far.
