CraftyV 61 Posted June 22, 2012 Today I woke up feeling much better. I slept longer and ate a little more. My surgery was on monday and I was 246 now I am 234. My rings and jeans are feeling loose too. My kids say that they can tell the weight loss on my face. Things are looking good!! Now I am just waiting for my incisions to heal and that will make a world of a difference. It really helped to come on this forum and read words of encouragements. THANKS to all of you who respond! Have a blessed day everyone! 1 MinaT reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MinaT 669 Posted June 22, 2012 Wow, look at you, congrats! You are wearing jeans? I seriously spent a week with no underwear on and sheer type nightgowns and I waited until my first surgeon appointment to attempt underwear and stretch pants (I had a drain removed at day 9). Good luck healing, every single day is better than the day before! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CraftyV 61 Posted June 22, 2012 thanks Mina! I was lucky not to have a drain. My incisions are no where near my waist line. honestly today was the first day I felt comfortable wearing a bra. At this rate I don't think my bras will be fitting me much longer hehe! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted June 22, 2012 Fabulous NSV's! I loved the process of change as the weight came off. Every day does get a 100 times better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Itsanewdaycassandra 45 Posted June 22, 2012 Welcome sounds like you are doing well, I would recommend getting some yoga pants to wear around the house while you recover, I had a pair of black ones and I was able to wear them to work without looking to bad…LOL! Keep us posted on your progress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sassygirl06 962 Posted June 22, 2012 some incisions are higher then others...mine were all in the upper area too. I was able to wear jeans right out too. everyone is right in saying that everyday gets better and better. I felt like the weight came off of my face the fastest too, which I loved. congrats on getting sleeved! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimmy*custis 276 Posted June 22, 2012 Yoga pants were my best friend for the first few weeks. Bra, not so much, only wore it when I left the house. Glad to hear you are doing well, you look fantastic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLIM12 19 Posted June 22, 2012 Hey Crafty, so glad to hear you are feeling better. We were both on Monday. I stayed in hospital an extra night as I wasn't keep up the good work! doing too well with swallowing and I had some extra procedures. I've been dressing exclusively tee shirt dresses. Very comfy. I'm still a little sore but have only taken pain med once. My only real issue is my left shoulder and chest area. It's like I have one big gas pocket.
