Damn time is flying. I'm starting to feel like myself. Planning to get back in the gym today. im starting to wake up flat. I still wear my binder religiously. Ordered a faja which should be delivered tomorrow. I'll probably go to wearing my binder only at night at that point.

Right side where the infection was has left a divot in my incision line. It is swollen there. I just massage it every night. It is healing differently than the left side.
