I am excited to join the flat side. I have enjoyed reading all the posts from all the other 'real selfers' so I decided to start my own. I had my pre-op Monday December 8 and my surgery is scheduled for next Friday. They took pictures at the pre-op but I dont have them yet so I will try to take some to upload.

Best wishes to you! I can't wait to see your before & after pictures. Have you looked through the list of things you may need? I've grabbed a few things. Loose pj's that button in the front, plenty pillows, protein shakes, stocked up on the heavy things, ie cases of water, laundry soap, dog food ...

I've looked through so many lists and so many people say different things are important. I do have a lift to go over the toilet seat and I am looking into a walker. I wear pajama dresses so I should be good there. Thanks for reminding me to stock up on the heavy stuff. I hadn't thought about laundry detergent and water.

I only took my binder off for a minute and my belly button was bleeding so I put it back on. I'm swollen but so flat from the side. I'll get some pics in the next few days

I can't stop itching. That's the worst part to me. Going to take a benadryl now. I haven't really been that nauseous yet.

Thank you! Still painful but should get to go home in a few hours

Use lots of pillows for the car ride home. Keep eyes open & look at the horizon (to avoid nausea). Pee before you leave. You'll be exhausted when you get home. Keep a medication journal to stay on top of them. Let me know what I can do for you! Hugs!

It will be worth it. Even though I'm still in pain and don't have my energy every time I look at my tummy I am so amazed. It is definitely worth it. Can't wait to follow your journey.
