Good Times
WORTH IT$8,130
My hubs and I enjoyed a nice little vacation last weekend. My custom bikini bottoms finally arrived and they covered the scar just right! Looking good in the morning on vacation but my end of the day pics are pretty puffy. Still though much better than before. Now to get into a good exercise routine. Wish me luck :)

Feeling Great! Looking great!
So I haven't been able to upload photos with my phone since updating to the new OS. If it ever works again I promos I will.
Anyhow I am feeling great lately! I only feel tight when I've been sitting a long time and then get up. Other than that I am walking around upright, laying on my side and on my back at night!
I had my check up yesterday and I got the green light for everything! No more compression garment if I don't want to wear it. But figure I will keep wearing it unless I go out and want to wear something without it. Otherwise why not reap the benefits?
I can exercise, go in spas, get spray tans, waxes and all! One funny thing I have noticed is that especially without my CG it feels like I have a tight belt or string tied around my waist where my incision is. Kind of annoying but worth it!
My results are looking really good. My scar is so thin. A little uneven but you can't tell unless you compare to the line of a swimsuit bottom or something. My belly button looks great and natural too. All things I was worried about pre-op. My husband even says that he thinks when all the swelling is gone I'll look about as good as I did on our honeymoon...maybe even better (minus the scar). So nice to hear him say that!
We are going to have such a great time on our 10 year anniversary in a few weeks. I'm so excited!
I just received my custom bikini bottoms in the mail yesterday. They're so cute! And the top belt hides my scar just right. I have to pull it up slightly to cover the whole scar so I might have them adjusted. But they're cute either way! Can't wait to wear it on the cruise!
Anyways, oh and I had some more photos taken at the appointment yesterday. I highly recommend Athenix and Dr Javad for anyone in this area.

The Mirror is My Friend
So today I looked in the mirror and though "dang I'm looking skinny!" Im definitely feeling good about having done this now. My doctor has done a good job. I've still got some swelling of course that it noticeable from a side view. From the front though I'm looking flat. Hard to imagine that it's only going to be better when the swelling goes away. Crazy! Anyhow I was excited and thought I'd post about it. :)

What a nice update to read :) After the first few weeks, isn't it so nice to look in the mirror and know that going through with this process was well worth it?! And like you said, it's only going to get better. You must be counting down to your cruise! Are your kids going with you as well or just you and your husband?

It is a great feeling! Oh man I am really looking forward to the cruise. I'll have a release not to wear my CG by then too which is awesome! Just my husband and I on this trip. That's why its a 3 day and not a 7 day cruise. Can't be away from the kids too long you know. Our boys are excited too though because they get to have some fun with their uncle while we're gone. We're looking forward to a relaxing time together. :)
