Default Three Weeks Out!

I've written on other threads that things seem to be okay right now. I made shrimp for dinner and I was able to eat 8 of them. (in half an hour...) Before the surgery, I would have eaten the whole bag in five minutes WITH an assload of pasta. God, they were good. I added a little Molly McButter, some Olive Oil spray and a little garlic. Mmmm. Mmmm. Mmmm.

I thought I would post a new pic of the scar. It looks MUCH better than it did when I first came home and is WAY better than I thought it would look before I even had the surgery. It feels okay, too. I'm a little sore underneath the skin about two inches around the incision, but it's not a painful sore, it's more like an "I did too much today" sore. It's not sore enough to keep me from sleeping on my side...and I have been doing so comfortably for several days now. I don't want to seem like Sunshine Steve, but I'm in a good place. Well, at least until I go back to working all day instead of being off!

This will be the eventual midline of my six pack. Right now, it's still kind of a one pack.
