Hello! I haven't gone to a support group yet, they have one at my hospital though, and I would like to attend. It might be good to have someone to compete with! All of my friends that I know that have had it, have already had their plastic surgery for the skin removal, cause they had it done like 2 years ago.

My belly hurt for about 4 days, then I was fine, I wasn't able to sleep on my side though for about a month. I slept in the la-z-boy for awhile, that helped.

Keep in touch, and I will let you know when the next support group meeting is, I think they are on Thursdays here at University Community Hospital in Tampa (that's where I work and where I had my surgery).

Take care! And let me know how you are doing!
