I must admit when i was having my tummy marked up for surgery for last time i was so ashamed of my huge pannis  i never felt it reflected  the massive weight loss it was not showing the true me. was hard to post here but i want people to see you have hope for a flat tummy, I know i will never have a body of victoria secret model , I just wanted a body that looked healthy and i did not have this werid distorted body, I hope he will take the drains on next thursday but depends on how much drainage is still occuring, I feel like i have these huge  testicles hanging lol I am just very weak but the pain is miminal not even taking pain meds but at night now my sides are really swollen alot but tummy is nice and flat i am dropping a lb a day yeah!!! i can handle this, I think becasue I have had invasive surgery on my tummy before i have the net work of drainage set up where most people have to find a path to remove excess fluid.. my sides are like virgin net work they are pretty swollen like love handles. I have had about 12 drainage tubes when i was stabbed in my  belly so this maybe why i am not retaining fluid in my belly but man the love handles are swollen, Plus i drink cranberry juice and pee like a race horse. Doc took all the fat off my tummy  due to massive hernia repair

WOW! What a difference!! Your tummy looks sooo flat after the surgery and it will probably even get flatter after some of the swelling goes down. I would imagine you still have some swelling...although you don't like you do. I can't believe what a huge difference it makes. It must feel so weird to walk without that buldge in front of you now. Man, all your clothes are gonna fall off of you now. CONGRATULATIONS you look amazing!!!!!! Praying for a speedy recovery. When do you get the drains out?

Hugs,
