Well I'm 6 weeks post op! Can't believe it! I am down 9 pounds from my pre op weight. I still feel very happy that I did this....but the scar really makes me sad. It's soooo much worse than I thought it would be. I've had a lot of trouble healing and am finally just at the point where half my body isn't covered in band aids and special healing cream. I think once my scar fades, I will be happy. Can't wait to start working out again. My arms and inner thighs still look so terrible, it's funny my stomach looks so good :-) They do not match!
