Chantal lies, of course. But amidst all the mass medsperging in here, no one hit on a key point - aside from potential complications regarding wound hygiene, having her massive gunt may actually be beneficial to her pain and healing. I will not PL about folks I know cuz that’d be boring as shit but trust that large women have a slight, but distinct, advantage after a procedure when carrying excess abdominal fat:
1) the fat acts as pressure support. She doesn’t need a pillow because her fat is holding her innards tight enough already. The pulling of her massive front won’t matter when she’s sitting or laying, as she is 85% of the time.
2) her range of movement is already limited by her body mass. She’s simply not using her muscles in the same way as a normal sized person, so that pain is mitigated.
3) assuming her wound is tucked in a fold or crease around her fupa (horrifying, I know), it’s protected from snags and pulls. Chantal is stupid as fuck, but if she has any sense, she only needs to tuck a pad or cloth between her folds against the wound to keep it clean(ish) and dry.
4) her nerve damage is more spread, so she is probably numb in a larger swath of flesh.
Those factors mixed with basic pain meds and her own smug self satisfaction are enough to keep her feeling okay right now. The healing WILL get harder, she WILL have complications (my vote is for massive sticky adhesions since she won’t move enough, because her fat is protecting her from pain and moving is painful work), and we WILL get the m.ilk from the surgery, eventually - but her current situation is on par with what I expected.
