1 month post op

Hey yall.... well im 1 month post op today. I feel pretty good, went back to work today. Still feeling tight and sore at times. The swelling continues, but i can tell a world of a difference week by week. I decided to sleep in my bed for the first time and it was ok, noticed lots of swelling and more tightness when i woke up so I'll probably go back to my recliner for another week and see how that goes. I plan on going back to the gym at 6 wks. So far im loving my results. Still lots of swelling in the mons area but it doesn't feel like fluid there. My back is getting better with the swelling, it looks a million times better. As soon as i can get someone to take pics of my back, i will post them. My belly button is healing good, and my scar is thin and barely visible. Im using antibiotic ointment on it for now, not sure if i will need scar strips. Im wearing my faja and binder to add more compression. Im so ready to get rid if this swelling. See yall in a few wks for another update :)

14 days post op

Ugh!!!! This swelling and stiff back is getting old, but i still love my results. The swelling gets better day by day. Im walking straight but this binder cuts into my back. Im going to get another garment tomorrow. The one i have, i cant fit it around my thighs to put it on (smh) Beacuse they are already thick and the added swelling. Ready to see more changes in the upcoming weeks!!! Thanks Dr. Cochran!!!

Follow up appt

Hey yall.... so i had my follow up appt with Dr. Cochran today. He removed both my drains and removed the stitches from my belly button ( whew it hurt). I didn't even feel the drains when he pulled them. He said everything looked good and i would see final results in a few months. I see some now though. My waist is tiny, i can't believe it!!! Im so happy that i waited and went to Dr. C instead. Overall he said he took off 12lbs!!! Im very happy that when i sit down, my stomach is no longer in my lap... thanks dr. Cochran :)
