WORTH IT
Have been feeling good enough and mostly swell free in the mornings (by late afternoon it's a different story eek) that I decided to take myself shopping and really see if and how things changed when it came to clothes fitting me. Prior to the surgery I always felt that my body was somehow deformed. I hated my body. Getting dressed every day felt like a struggle just to find something that didn't make me feel gross and abnormal. Pants never fit right. My waist was the biggest part of me with hardly any hips and scrawny chicken legs. Well even though the last two things are still true haha I don't even care because now I look like a woman... I have the illusion of hips because my waist is so much smaller...I'm scared to say it because I might jinx myself.... But for the first time in my life I have CURVES! The thought almost makes me cry every time haha! Anyway back to shopping... Turns out I am one size smaller now. Not a huge feat to most but to me it was indescribable and exciting because most importantly I didn't have to buy jeans to fit my waist first only to have them be too big on my hips, butt and legs! I have no muffin top! I look like a woman in my jeans and for the first time ever bought a belt because I am ready to show my waistline instead of pulling down my shirts or wearing long sweaters to hide my entire torso... Love LOVE my new clothes... Can't stop looking at them in amazement! Will post pics tomorrow! :)

Changed my username to something a bit shorter and less annoying haha.
Muscles feel much better today. My belly is sore still obviously but I don't ache anywhere else at least. Have really gross drainage, looks like chunky bits of fat and worse than that, some of it is coming right from the drain site. Called my PS just waiting for a reply. I don't have a fever and otherwise feel fine so hopefully it's nothing. Just want the drain out more than anything else right now! Maybe then I can start to feel normal again!
