You look awesome.
Thanks!
Looking good, glad to "see you". How you feeling? Hope you're doing well. :-DSuzy
Thanks! I feel great except the stupid swelling!
U look good!!! Nice shape! Swell hell is always lurking. Sorry bout that.
Your body is looking great! I don't see too much swelling! Your stomach is flatter than mine and I'm 4mos po.
Hi tgroda! Thanks for checking up on me. I see you're doing great! I understand about the swelling. I still get it, mostly on one side and it's very little....but still happening. Still better than the full stomach swell from the swell hell days, lol. Question....since we're both at the same phase - does your stomach still feel really tight inside? Some days more than others? Yoga has been helping me with my flexibility, but some days my tummy and the skin just feel super tight...I wondered if you get that too? Hope all else is well....ttys :)

LOOKIN GOOD GIRL!!!!
Thanks. I am still frustrated by the amount of swelling I have.
I still don't know if mine is swelling or not. I'm still a little puzzled even though I just saw my ps yesterday!
OMG...you are working that dress girl!!! Just replied to your last mssg. Looks like your feeing better too! Isn't this the best thing we did for ourselves? You look beautiful!
Thank you! It is the best thing ever. I have so much more confidence.
Looking great girl! X
Thanks!!
Just checking in...saying hi! Hope all is well!
Hey! I am doing good still having lots of swelling which is frustrating. I still love my results. I will try and post some new pictures next week.
Is the swelling constant or only after long days? Also do you wear compression at all any more? Last question how many weeks po are you?
Swelling is mostly in the evenings. I am 3 months po. I am still wearing compression garments when I feel like I need to

Crazy times

Things have been crazy for me lately with work and home. My husbands aunt died and work has been non stop. I am still swelling pretty bad in the evening. I am still loving not having a huge tummy but I wish this swelling would stop.

Looking great!!!
Thanks.
You look great!
Thank you!
I'm so sorry to hear about your husband's aunt. I have been wondering how you have been feeling. Hope the swelling goes down! Your pics look great! How long did you have to wear your foam? I have mine and got it at 1 week check up. I don't see them again until my 4 week and I was hoping to get rid of this thing....even though it's helping!
I am still wearing my foam occasionally if I swell.
