I'm taking a break from Meso

Speaking of, how did that turn out?
I think my insurance cheaped out on the mesh and they ended up stapling some recycled chicken wire in there. Otherwise I guess it's going okay, thanks for asking!

I don't know how I'm going 4-5 more weeks without lifting, though. Never mind the muscles, that's my brain medicine.
 
I was lifting after the first week. Didn't have issues with heavy things. Doctor recommendations are to the lowest common denominator types. You know your body better than they do, and if you're here at Meso, you probably know PT better than physical therapists. Just ease into it and don't do crunches and sit up type shit, yet.
The mesh is kinda lame at first, but I don't notice it anymore. And it's better than your guts spilling out.

Damn, you're a better (and probably younger) man than I. It's been a week and I'm still kind of hobbling around. My followup is in 5 days so if he says it's looking good, maybe I'll sneak in some supported isolation work after that. There's nothing like abdominal surgery to teach you just how damned much you brace your core for the littlest things.
