Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Day 4 Post Op

Sleep last night was horrible. I didn’t take my hydrocodone before bed because I’m trying to stop them. I don’t know if it was that, that I just couldn’t get comfortable or my neck stiffness. But I dozed off during the day so I made up for it.

I put on some “public” wearing clothes I wear everyday and it felt so good not to have a muffin top and it to look so good already! I had to drive to work (our own business) to try and fix a situation and get some Gatorade.

My car of course didn’t want to crank for some reason but we got it going. I went and came back home and have been lounging the rest of the day.

When I called my drains in this morning, my right was still draining too much for them to let me come get them out. It’s cut almost in 1/2 today however so I feel tomorrow morning they will let me come. I couldn’t be more ready to get them out!

Day 3 Post Op

Pain has gone away a significant bit today. Woke up a few times during the night because my inner stitches felt like they were tickling me lol. I have unfortunately been nauseasous all day after I eat.

I still can only eat small amounts (like how I was right after I had gastric surgery) which is fine by me. I needed to cut back on my eating anyway.

Took another bird bath that seemed like it took forever. I’ll be glad when I can take an actual shower but it’ll be a little bit.

I stepped on the scale this afternoon and I’m down about 4lbs from yesterday. Hopefully that means some swelling is going away, not sure. With the skin and fat removed I should be at 189 but I understand with the swelling I won’t be right away. I also have very minimal bruising too.

Washed My Suit

I was able to take off my suit for a while and wash it where my drain had popped open on the way home. Here is another side by side comparison.
