9 More Days with this Garmet...

I'm feeling better all the time and wish I could start doing more physical activity. I feel like I'm going to gain weight if I'm not exercising. Although, it would be hard to exercise wearing this garmet and it would get really sweaty and gross and probably rub half my skin off.

I've determined that one of my garmets (I have 2) is actually smaller than the other one. It is smaller at the leg openings and is noticeably smaller in the waist.....so I plan to only wear this one while the other one is being washed and dried. I wore it to sleep last night, but had the hooks closed and the zippers undone.

My stomach looks pretty good, the swelling insn't very noticable but the small of my back is REALLY poofy. I think this is b/c of the way I sit @ my desk at work and I've been sleeping on my back a little bit, which kind of squishes the waistband of the garmet into my back. I hope it begins to go down. I was thinking of icing it but wasn't sure if that would really help. I've also been trying to sleep on my stomach a little more.

I have a little lump underneath one of the incisions under my breast. I have a feeling its some kind of scar tissue that will hopefully go away, but I want to ask the Dr. about it next week when I see him. I have a few questions for him and want to make a list so I don't forget any of them. I also want to ask him how I should start easing myself back into my exercise routine.

I'll post more pictures next Tuesday.
