Good luck! You should do your after picture in the same bathing suit. I am sure you will look so much different. See you on the flat side. I am almost 6 weeks post operation. One of the best things I have ever done for my self. You are doing it right. Working out and doing all you can before you get the tt will give you the best results. Can't wait. Excited for you!

I will take after pics and some more before right before TT

Good luck to you! I am a 47 year old mom of 6. It is a tough recovery. Can your hubby and 18 year old be around for a week or so to help you out? I have more kids, but so much the more for helping me out. They could collectively get breakfast, lunch....take out dogs, do laundry, etc. You're going to need that help for awhile!

My husband is great and offered to take off work but I don't want to use our vacation time ;) my daughter is going to help all she can. My son will pitch in when he is home from collage. I just need to learn to relax and let things run without me ( let loose) lol.

Right. You have to let a lot of things go that first week. The good thing is, you really won't give a hoot if they eat chocolate cake for breakfast or not for a good 4-5 days! lol. The first few days you really do need someone there all the time, though. Even if you didn't have littles. Someone to get you water, help you get up, etc. Good luck!

I went over to my mother in laws today, she offered for me to come stay with her and she would help me and take me to Dr. Appts. I am going to stay with her for 3 or 4 days. My husband and daughter can work out the rest :). They will glad I won't be there to give them orders or drive them crazy. Lol
