Cautiously Optimistic - Coral Gables, FL

I am posting a picture I took today. The one on the left is 3 weeks post op and the picture on the right is today at 7 weeks. A lot of the swelling has gone down. My incision just completely closed. Hopefully the sutures will all dissolved soon and stop poking through. I still swell towards the end of the day. I have been wearing my binder to bed and my CG during the day.
I am able to lift my son in and out of the car with no problem. I haven't been carrying him. I plan to start back working out next week.
Happy Healing everyone.

This TT has been such an instant transformation. I am finding that it's the little things that make the difference. ..such as:
A. Leaning over my oven to clean the microwave and my belly is no longer pressing against the digital buttons.
B. My daughter no longer asking me if I have a baby in my belly.
C. Putting on any shirt in my closet because I know it will fit and I don't have to try and hide my belly.
D. I haven't purchased new jeans so I have been wearing a belt. The 1st hole is worn but now I don't need the 1st hole. I buckled the belt on the 5th hole. I can't believe it!
E. He is probably afraid to admit it but the hubby's attraction level has went up. If it is true that confidence is sexy. Then I am one sexy mama.
F. People who just saw me 2 months ago now see me and say how much weight I have lost. I just say "Thanks I have loss over 60lbs since my son was born". Which is true but I lost this before the surgery they just couldn't tell.

One small change I could do without is the green eyed monster that has appeared. I know people are happy for me and are thrilled with the results but some not so much. I am not the only one mentally processing this change.
