I'm five days also. I wear it most of the day but my stomach does need a break from it after having it on so long. It does help with internal swelling. My problem now is its stretching out and harder to get on tight enough.

No I sleep in mine. It just feels better to me to be snug.

Hi slowtogo, yeah he is slowly coming around, he revealed that he is scared of me becoming Skinny and leaving him..... Its slowly getting better..... Doesnt hurt that i threaten to draft a divorce ... It scared him to pieces.... Im an attorney so it could be very simple for me..... We are going to therapy... Ty for asking

It's amazing what emotions come out of fear. So glad things are moving in the right direction!

That is awesome. I'm glad he let out the real reason...men can be so difficult. Happy for the both of you!

I was wondering about a binder if its something they put on you at hospital or something you go get yourself or do you ask them at hospital for one

What's a binder?

Its like a girdle that holds in your stomach

I came out of surgery with mine on.

Do i have to buy a stomach binder or they will put me one after my surgery?

Hospital should provide you with one.
