Hello All,

I just wanted to quickly update you with some great news. The feeling has slowly been coming back to the numb spot on my leg. I would say it is about 80% back. So for anyone that finds a weird numb spot after surgery - please don't worry - the feeling can come back! (Just like my doctor said, but I was worried he was just trying to calm me down...)

I was reminded to update here because I got some nurve "zings" tonight - it is the feeling of the nerve repairing themselves. Almost like someone snaps you with a rubber band. Not pleasant, but I am so happy to have them because it means I am still healing and even more feeling will come back!

In other news, I managed to gain 30 lbs in the 2nd half of last year and have since lost 15 of them. So I am 15 lbs up from my lowest. Weight will be a constant battle for me for the rest of my life, but getting this surgery is motivating to stay healthy so I can show off my bikini belly!

Thank you, thank you! It took a lot of shopping. I need a lot of support up top and I like a lot of coverage without looking like an old lady suit ;)
