336Mike reacted to mousecat88 in Tattoo Time
I'd like to get SOMETHING. I just don't know what. I have 3 tattoos currently (formerly had 5, but had 2 removed) with 5 more planned after I finish my plastic surgeries, but those are unrelated to the weight loss surgery.

@mousecat88 I did have back pain/ soreness for several weeks. It was harder not to last flat for so long than it was not to stand up straight. It was 3-4 weeks before I could stay to stretch more at night and even then had pillows under my legs.

@yes_anastasia Thank you for the info! I think I'm going to do the FDL. They called to change my preop appointment from Fri AM to Thurs afternoon.
Glad to know I should be okay without help after the first couple of days. Pics are helpful if you're willing to share. Thanks!!!

Just got back from my postop! 6 pounds of skin removed which is hard to imagine. I get an "A" from the surgeon on how well I'm doing. I saw my belly button for the first time and he removed the stitches from it. I go back Thursday to have my drains out. I stopped pain meds Saturday and have been talking tylenol as needed. I've been able to go out for little walks, etc.
So happy that I had this done!! I can't believe how good it feels to not have the skin there!!

@nursemichael I have too many tats to count...some preop and others postop. I got my "rock bottom of being unhealthy" date when I was sick and in the hospital with super high BP and other issues above my elbow. That's when my WL journey got real. Wanted the constant reminder to never go back!
Here are some pics of a few. Really into traditional Japanese but out seems to all be on my right side lol.

So today is 5 weeks out from surgery and I could not be happier with the results. Still have some swelling as expected. Overall I'm doing great and feeling good. I can comfortable wear jeans but still having a hard time fitting into my suit pants but that'll ease off as the swelling goes down. I'd do this again in a heartbeat!
