My preventative double mastectomy with reconstruction all went according to plan and I'm due to go home in a few hours (with lots of painkillers).
What I want to say is - I've done fitness blender programmes for 3-4 months now and my GOD I can see how it has helped me post-surgery. I have leg and stomach muscles that can actually aid me in lifting my upper body up and out of bed, my arms don't feel too weak after surgery and I can feel that following the right recovery path I'll get back to where I was and go further. I'm so damn proud of myself for getting myself so much more fit and healthy in the lead up to this surgery. No exercise for me for 6 weeks, apart from some physio exercises, and then I'll gently restart when allowed. No rush - I'm in this for the long term results!
Surgery complete! And thank you FB...
