Look at you! [emoji7]

Awesome!

You look amazing! Gorgeous dress. I agree with what @ms.sss said - wear what *you* feel best in. Not knowing too much about the big meeting, I don't know if maybe something a little looser fitting would be more suitable. In any case, you look fantastic in this dress so if it's the one you feel best in then by all means wear it to that meeting!

Congratulations!

Piggybacking off of my previous post.... Losing all my extra padding on my butt sure makes it hurt so much more when I fall on my tailbone. Ouch!

I've been getting dizzy and fainting every once in a while too. In fact just tonight I fell to the floor, hit my head, and hurt my tailbone so much that I can only lie on my side for it not to hurt. My blood pressure has always been on the low side of normal my whole life. I wonder if now it's dipped into the below normal. Hmmm. But if that's the case then it should have come up in at least one of my appts that I have with different Drs over the past year and a half.

Oh no. That sux. No doubt your post belongs in this thread.

This totally makes me giggle. Thanks for the laugh. Sorry it's at your expense. [emoji8]

Update: I bought a different water bottle and what a difference it makes! The one I had before didn't really let much water out at a time but this one gushes out so I can drink more at s time. For the past few days I've been able to easily finish one full 32 oz compared to most days I couldn't. Now I need to work on refilling it and getting in that second 32 oz.

You sound so happy and also content. That's awesome!

So glad you feel better. I really like having it on too.

CircaTape. It's what my Dr recommended, and I think someone else here on BP did too but I can't remember who that was. CicaTape Soft Silicone Tape (1.57in x 59in) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076FHBDDD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_M1LjEbAX7P47K

Is silicone tape essentially the same as silicone sheets but just in one long roll to be cut down to any size? @ms.sss

First off, you look amazing! Just a comment to say that I love having the silicone tape on my arms. I feel like the incisions are well protected. And I barely even feel that the tape is even on. Just replaced the first set (?) tonight, after wearing for a week. It was still working fine but I just felt like it was time to change it. Just cuz.

Heehee this made me giggle

I just keep it on 24/7 until it's gross then I replace it.

Seeing my collarbone for the first time in forever was one of the first e NSVs for me. I still love seeing them.

Been working from home the past couple days due to snow and ice. Not getting up and walking around as much as I would if I was in the office so it's no surprised that my elbows are a little extra swollen. Other than that my arms feel pretty good. Not too much stiffness when I extend them. I really like this silicone tape. I kinda think it's keeping the wayward sutures under control too. I've only applied it once so far plus a couple small strips that I had to redo. I can see I won't have enough for a full second application so I had to order another box. I didn't see it come in a larger length which would have been nice, and probably more cost effective.
