You're inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing these. I'm with you in the fact that I don't want anyone to see my before photos. But I'm sure once I see progress I'll be more willing to. I appreciate your support.

Thank you so much everybody for your support and encouragement. My surgery was yesterday and it went beautifully. Although the pain is worse than I expected ( I had had a C-section a few years ago I didn't think that it would be worse than that. )It is and that surprised me. But the nurses and staff are all just so great and meds are very helpful.
There are a few other changes that I wasn't expecting so quickly. Like how Water tastes like it has a hint of sugar in it now. I absolutely adore chewing ice for the first time in decades. And how I could only get through 3/4 of a sugar-free popsicle before I was full. They should be bringing me lunch soon but I still had a Jell-O left over for Breakfast so three bites of that and I was done. The sugarfree Popsicles and Jell-O were so incredibly sweet that it was almost gagging. The Jell-O was the worst only because it didn't turn into a water consistency so it coded your mouth in this syrupy flavor and texture. The one annoying thing is that They've removed my catheter as of this morning and I feel that I have to go but when I said it just hasn't come out yet. Lastly I haven't had this many hiccups come on so easily in my life and the gas pain we all hear about hasn't hurt like I expected. I have some in my belly but it's not bad and taking deep breathes completely took away any in my shoulder within 2 hours.
Everything so far has been so worth it. Not regrets yet. I was told of all keeps going this smoothly, they'll send me home tomorrow morning!

Annie, Congratulations on you progress (I can see the difference in your pics) and your successful surgery. I had mine on the 22nd. I ended up staying 2 nights in the hospital and boy did that extra night make a difference. I was actually thankful that I was quite a distance from home, so after surgery my hubby went home and didn't see him again until pickup time. I was able to concentrate on following what my body needed. Mostly slept and drank my Water. I didn't have a catheter so most of my exercise was heading to the bathroom. I'm home now today and took the dog for a walk around the block. That tired me out pretty well. I did have one of my grown sons with me just in case I found it too difficult ( or if the dog went #2 [emoji23])
You were so forward thinking in taking such good photos to document your progress. Good for you! Keep it up and feel free to keep in touch!

Heal well! You now get to take a seat on the losers bench!

Take care and keep us posted!💖

Thank you. Our experiences are similar. I took the shuttle down to the hospital and will not see my family until my husband picks me up tomorrow. It's actually really nice to have this time just to focus on myself! I love it and am mentally rejuvenated. Loving life today.

That's wonderful! We all need a little time to work on ourselves. Too bad it takes major surgery before we give in to it. Enjoy your evening and your day tomorrow.

Sounds like you are doing really well & I'm so impressed your focusing your energy on listening to what your body needs. Hope I remember that when it's my turn.

Hola, el tema del orgasmo femenino ha sido un tabú hasta ahora. Que creen? Ya está resuelto. Y es increíble, lo fácil que es lograrlo. No existen más mujeres anorgasmicas!!!!

Solo vayan les recomiendo esta página www.techniquedans.org

Si alguien quiere profundizar sobre el tema. Con gusto.
