6 months after my op I still have this enormous belly, despite having lost a few pounds. To make matters worse, it swells up during the day - up to about 10cm larger in girth. I now understand what's meant by 'uncomfortable bloating' - it feels like a sack of spuds hanging off my frontage and actually pulls on the muscles in my back.
I still can't get over the shock of seeing myself reflected in shop windows looking 5 months pregnant; in fact I've been heavier than this in the past but never had this weird memory foam-like spare tyre.
Anyone else had this and got back to normal?
