Oh my gosh I forgot to talk about panties! You can see, in my "before" pictures, the kind of panties that I used to wear. I would get the lycra/spandex full coverage variety that would fit over my bottom belly and hopefully offer a little support/compression.
Since my surgery, I've purchased 10 new pairs of bikini or hipster panties! It's indescribably awesome to see pretty, lacy panties lying straight across my flat tummy! Panties alone are a justification for this surgery if you're looking for one.

Things are going well. I have a scabby area on my vertical tummy incision that feels like it's taking forever to heal. I keep asking the scabs to just fall off already, but they refuse to budge. My thighs are happy. That fluid collection under the right incision is still there and I wish it would just be gone already, but it doesn't hurt...I'm just annoyed that it's there.
I am returning to work on Monday and feeling a bit nervous about how my body will react to being up and about all day long. Luckily, I have a whole week of workdays before I actually have to teach.
I worked out for the first time yesterday! I did some arm/shoulder/back exercises with my hand weights! It felt good to get moving a bit :)

I feel great! I love putting clothes on! I love taking them off! I love checking myself out on every available shiny surface that I see! I don't know what else to write!
