WORTH IT$7,340
24 days post op and day 4 back on the job. I must say my abdominal binder has become my best friend. It's her and I against the world and we work damn well together. I honestly don't know what I would do without it. My first day back was tough. The my heart was racing, my body was extremely stiff, and I just didn't have the energy. My second day was even worst, then things started looking up on my third day. I'm still extremely tired halfway through my shift, but it's definitely getting better. Everyone at my job wants to have a look at my stomach and everyone wants a tummy tuck now. I find it quite amusing. There are no secrets at my workplace. If you tell one, you've told the hold facility. Any how, happy healing to everyone!

Well today is my first day back to work! It's bittersweet because I'm emotionally ready because I've been so bored, but not sure if I'm physically ready to be on my feet for 90% of a 8 hour shift?. Either way, I'm wrapped up tight in my abdominal binder and I'm going to give it the best I got.

Sammy I saw you started back to work, ughgh I cant even think of work now! I am on day 5 my doc used glue too, did they have you put anything on your incision to clean it? He just told me I can use peroxide on my BB, I hate the smell of the glue. I could not post pics, Kimmers said go to your profile page hold shift and hit refresh button and then it will allow you to load pics, messed up I know!! Good luck with work sounds like you are doing well!

Hi Bejewelme, it's sounds like your recovery is coming along well!! Isn't it just great to be on the other side? My doc didn't have me use anything on my incision or my BB. He just told me to continue to bath in the antibacterial soap and let it wash over it. I really like the glue method because there's no stitches to remove. Thanks for the tip on uploading pics, I will try to do it again pretty soon. I hope your healing process continues to go well.

Hello msbeas, those 4 days will go by super fast! I've been trying to post more recent pics, but something is up with the site. They keep coming up turned sideways. I wish you the best on your TT. It will turn out great:-)

So, Sammy, how are you doing with the Y-y-y (well that didn't work so well...)-your Seroma? I dust got back and he took out 70 cc's. Sounds like a lot, but the week before it was 170!!!! Yikes! I am keeping myself bound up so tightly that it can't accumulate. I feel like Scarlet O'Hara when she was getting her corset laced! I literally have to hold onto a door jam to keep from falling.

Hi Taylors! My seroma is still here. I think she's getting a bit too comfy, but I've been following the doc's orders and it didn't need to be drained at my last appointment. I don't go back until next Monday, but I'm sure it will need some draining then. The more my overall swelling goes down, the more apparent it is. I wear my binder pretty tight too. I've also been using Spanx on the days I wash my binder and they are super tight and more comfortable than the binder.

I am a praying woman, I have already prayed that that thing will LEAVE you!
So tell me about the spanx.

Thank you Taylors! I hope yours leaves you soon also. I ordered the Spanx from the website. I bought other brands like it first, trying to save money, but they didn't do the trick. The style I got is the High Power Brief. It's $36 and well worth it. The only hang up I have with it is that there is a brief attached to the bottom of waist section so you may have to take the whole thing off to use the restroom. Otherwise, it's really tight so it gives really good compression and it's really comfy once it's on. I really like wearing it when I'm going out somewhere because I get the compression without the bulk of the binder.

You crack me up! So the seroma has a gender?? Hahaaa!
I am thinking about getting one of those spanx with the open top that extend to the lower hip. That way I can still tinkle easily. (How old AM I?)

You mentioned people wanting to see your belly. It reminds me of when I was pregnant and perfect strangers feeling as though it was appropriate to touch your stomach! I think I've had about a dozen requests to see "IT". Hahahaaa!
You? I hope work is going well for you.
