Going back to work Monday, and drove myself to the store yesterday, so woohoo! I have a high pain threshold and usually heal very quickly, but I have to admit even surprising myself this time! No pain meds since Monday, and my 10-in*****ision is healing nicely. I get a twinge of pain now and then where they went through the healed incision where my hernia was repaired, but other than that I'm doing awesome! Also, ordered some new work pants and they came yesterday, SIZE 14!!! I can't believe how they slipped right on! Now that the "twins" (huge fibroids) and all are gone, I'm actually starting to feel thinner since my tummy doesn't bulge anymore like I'm 6 months pregnant! Woohoo!

QOTD: My parents had to sit me down when I was about 8 and tell me about Santa. Seems I was being made fun of in school because everyone else knew. I remember it vividly, and I was so sad. HOWEVER, I am so happy my folks let us have Santa, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy. I firmly believe that, since we spend 95% of our lives dealing with the realities of the world, children deserve to have their time with fantasy and imagination, and imaginary beings like Santa, et al, which nurture their imaginations and creativity. Reality and all the crap that entails comes soon enough.

B: Smoked pulled pork

L: Turkey sausage snack bites, Swirls cheese sticks, zucchini w/bacon cheese ranch dressing

10 in*****ision! I didn't think they did that too often these days. Did they tighten your tummy for you some?

Yep, 10-inch vertical midline, just to the right of my belly button, and runs 3 inches below it and about 7 inches above. Gonna be a beauty of a scar!! lol I had enormous fibroids so they couldn't do it laporascopic or vaginally. And unfortunately, no...no tummy tightening lol.
