Post Op Day 6 (Photos)

Wow, today has been a bear. I slept for about 3-4 hours this afternoon and have been miserable ever since, tears miserable. I got in the shower thinking it would help me. I swear I feel sawed in two, having both these procedures done to the abdomen at the same time, whew was just not easy. I know I'm going to be happy with the results but for the moment this is more than difficult. I thought it would be like a c-section...nope, much harder on me, much. I swear I don't know how in the world people go through all those procedures for those plastic surgery shows. Hunter is going to rub my neck and I just took some pain meds. OH, one more thing for the day I got on the scale and had dropped 11 pounds total. Maybe I can rest and feel better tomorrow. Getting the fluid off does help...:)

OK, so the description of the pics is as follows: 1st one is new belly button and incision line, notice the completely flat stomach! Yeah, I have a little birthmark on my stomach and yes he apparently tried to sculpt me out some abs ;) On the 2nd picture you can see where he placed my drains on my thigh it is the same for both sides, I came out with 4 drains, the lighting fools you a bit on this one because my stomach is really flat and it doesn't quite look that way but then again it might be just how the incision line makes it look. The 4th pic is my left hip where he liposuctioned keep in mind this is the 6th day post op so much of the bruising is gone although it is still swollen. The drain entrance is vi sable in this one as well. OK, hope you enjoyed the photos and they were not too graphic for you...
