Loving it but feels weird

It's been exactly 5 weeks since my surgery day and invert happy with results. Can't wait til all the swelling is down. It's getting better to sleep at night. Haven't laid out in the sun yet or gone into the pool. Soon. My size 2 pants are a little big and I love trying on swim suites.

I do have one issue which I hopefully minor but above my belly button my belly bulges which is weird. Dr said I can start working out slowly and see if we can get rid of the bulge by toning the muscles. Won't be able to do hardcore work outs til 9-10 weeks so another month. Right now I'll do some cycling and yoga ( light). Before surgery I was 130lbs now I'm 125lbs. Would like to tone my body.

Will update again in two weeks at my two month mark!!

Not a good day. Blah

So it's been 3 weeks and I thought I was starting to feel better but not so much. Hate how puffy my tummy gets after I eat. Feels like I have a ball inside. My skin is already so tight. Changed my tape today and got to see how the progression is going. Cut looks very nice. Hoping this bloating/ ball feeling goes away soon.
