Ok, so it has been exactly one week since surgery and I am finally starting to feel pretty good. My only complaint is my left side. It is still very tender and sore, and when I cough it is hell. There is actually a rather large dip in that area, it's lopsided. I am still wearing the binder and it helps for the most part. I am still sleeping in a recliner in the living room. I tried getting in bed last night and just lying perfectly still on my back, but I ended up in pain and back to the recliner I went. Energy level is steadily going up. I can actually see some physical changes which obviously helps me to be positive. There are a lot of things I haven't experienced yet but I'm ready for all of them. This whole process has made me feel strong and I do not have any regrets so far. I am blessed to not have complications, and I pray that I will not develop any.Starting weight: 288
