June 17, 2016 – June 19, 2016
Discomfort would be the word to describe these three days. The tummy binder has been squeezing me so tight that my ass decided to push out 2 grape-sized hemorrhoids, the skin on my torso has developed permanent indentations, and my uterus started bleeding 9 days early. Not to mention that I’m still walking with my back hunched over and it’s killing my lower back. Also, still no bowel movement yet – definitely scared of what that will feel like. But maybe tomorrow will be the day.
Tomorrow will be my first follow up appointment with my surgeon where I’ll get to see myself for the first time. I am super excited, nervous, anxious and everything in-between; and if I know my body best, I’m sure I’ll have a few nervous episodes in the restroom before tomorrow’s appointment – haha. But in the mean time, I’ll just say in my comfy recliner in my parents living room.
