Don't really have much of an update, but I will post an updated pic. I am still shrinking. I started back advanced step aerobics this week. I feel ok. Kind of disappointed with my eating but I am going to fix that. Today was the first day I've worn panties since the surgery. It feels funny that they are not full from my stomach hanging. Its so much space in there! I laughed when I saw it. Over all I am still happy with my decision.

So I am 3 weeks out. I have switched my garment to a body magic from the one I got from my doctor as it had gotten too loose. I switch to the issued garment at night before bed as it is more comfortable to sleep in. I am seeing a big difference but the area around my belly button seems to be puffier than the rest. Like its not going down. I will still wear my compression garment and see what happens. I am still having some pain but not like it was. Its minimal. I have started back doing light workouts and now working on my eating. Overall Ifeel good about my decision.

I know. I am jealous of your result. You look great, I would kill for mine to look like that in the end! I am getting my exercise back on track and fixing my eating. I'll see where I am in 6 months.

I am feeling a whole lot better. I'm getting ready to start my exercise back up. My results are coming along fine. I can see my stomach lifting and my waistline shaping out. My garment has become too loose, I still wear it 23 he's a day. I'm currently looking for a smaller one. I'm still swollen, have some pain and itching. My stomach is lumpy at the bottom, not like I've seen others describe, but still like a bag of rocks. Also I have skin discoloration where the tape holding my bandages on were at. Will update again at 3 weeks post op.
