Post Op Journey - Philadelphia, PA

My waist and butt both went down an inch when I measured two days ago but everything is looking good. My booty greed and paranoia has kicked in heavy. I'm happy with the size and don't want it to shrink because while it looks big from the back, the side projection doesn't give much room for shrinking. My stepson elbowed me by accident in my right cheek last week and I've started having butt pains all over. Is this going to make my butt shrink?? What's whose is my eating the past 3 days. I was doing great until I hit a family function...1 big ass pork BBQ rib, a burger patty (no bread tho), 2 blue crabs no seasoning, spoonful of potatoe salad (omg it gets worse)....I'm now using unsealed butter because I'm over this fat free Pam spray.....annnnnd I had a scoop of ice cream, a dozen mini chocolate covered pretzels, and so e fat free welchs fruit snacks. (This feels like a Catholic confessional!) Therapy is going to suckkkkk tomorrow....I immediately feel the difference in my body. The sodium almost cause a burning pain I the areas where I'm still retaining fluid. Self torture! Lol but all is bland eating mess is making me cranky. I want to eat!!!

Other than that, all is good. Thank you Lord!

Pain is minimal, still discomfort...especially with sleeping. Getting out of bed myself but it isn't easy, it's gotten much better but still not normal. The body is looking good, I wish my waist was smaller but there is still a lot of fluid and swelling in there. My back stitches are still in, they come out Monday.
