10th Day from Surgery
This is Sunday and Day 10 and I am feeling really good and almost back to normal. Still a little sore but nothing that is interfering with my daily life. Now I can start to enjoy the benefits of the surgery. I actually wore a short waisted top to church today which was the first one in years.
Yesterday 1 Week after Surgery with Pictures
Yesterday, I went and saw my doctor and they said everything was looking great. I was so happy to have the drain removed as the drain incision was making it very painful to get out of bed and to bend over. It did hurt like heck when they removed it. They said there is still swelling although alot of swelling has decreased. My doctor reminded me that I did not elect to have a tummy tuck so I will never be flat but at my age, I don't care.
They did give me a new prescription for pain although now it is Hydrocodeine instead of Oxycodiene. Understandable because I am getting back to normal with much less discomfort.. I have had no energy and just want to sleep. That is not like me. I own my own business and have tons of energy so I am hoping that the old me comes back soon. So all is good. I wanted to get some pictures to you so please tell me what you think.
I will add more pictures next week.

Surgery Wednesday - Update Sunday
I wanted to update and let you know that I am doing good. The pain was hard on Day 2 and Day 3 but Saturday and Sunday have been good. I have reduced the pain pills these 2 days to just when I need them. However, I don't hesitate to take one when I need to. It is so nice when the pain just drifts away and normally I fell asleep shortly after taking the pill.
My biggest disappointment is that I got on the scale today for the first time since before my surgery and my weight was actually up 3 pounds from the day of surgery. I have certainty not been overeating and have watched my food intake so I assume it is swelling but could it be that swelling? I really expected with 2600 cc lipo out and 6 inches of skin that I would drop at least 5 pounds.
I still have my compression garment on which is annoying as it is tight and I am very itchy but I have not removed it. I will be going to the Doctors on Wednesday and will be sure to take some pictures when they take it off. Also, I know that I have to keep wearing it but wonder if I have to have in on all the time or if I take it off a hour or two will that hurt anything? Also, can I take a bath soon or does it have to be a shower?
I did some work today but am very tired and will soon lay back in bed and relax as I don't want to overdo anything. Thanks everyone!
