You look amazing! I am so jealous of your little swelling ☺. Are you getting comfortable yet? I feel my nerves reconnecting or something and I feel newly sore.

Almost 1 week down, post op. Yesterday, doc took drains out and changed dressings on belly button, incision site and drain site. Today i should be excited to take shower per doc orders. My first shower in almost a week. I dont want to look at my belly or clean wound sites. Nor do i want to take off my compression garment to take the shower. However i do want to wash hair, body and shave my legs/under arms.... so, i am going to eat a healthy breakfast and psych myself to shower. Glad my shower has a shelf seat so that i can sit and shower. My back hurts!

My drains are not capturing much. My follow up with ps is Monday at 10 am. Hoping ps will remove my drains then. I can feel sharp pains and i think its the stitches where drains are located. Still taking pain meds for pain. Feeling good tho. I will upload photos soon. I am excited to do this because i look different and feel that i have achieved my goal. Yeah!

So glad to hear you're doing well. We had our procedure on the same day so I can relate to your day to day feelings. Those stitches around the drains feel like needles. :) I try to keep those balls pinned to my shorts or in my rob pocket. Did your PS say your drains could come out after 5 days?
