4 years later - still no regrets
Hello everyone, it’s been a while. Thought I’d post an update since it’s so rare for people to post after 2 years and I'm always new curious how you ladies are doing. My scar is slowly fading and the scar tissue is slowly flattening too. Lots has happened in the last 4 years. I broke up with my bf, left my job, took a 10 month break and went back to work last year at new company. I’m angry/sad about our current administration and hope we don’t kill this planet any faster. I’ve been doing well otherwise - happy, healthy and blessed with twin grandkids.

What'new/What's the same
What's New/Different at 2 years post op:
1. I’m not as obsessed with the mirror.
2. Gained back all the weight I lost (~10lbs) – so the downside of a flat tummy, you don’t notice the weight gain until it’s too late!!!
3. Fell off the exercise bandwagon ? only exercise I get is walking the dog these days.
4. Thinking of lipo and scar revision still
5. Also thinking about facelift…I’m thinking sometime in the next 2-5 years
6. Feeling a bit better about my slitty BB after the cortisone shots to soften the scar which made it less slitty.
What’s the same:
1. Same areas of numbness
2. Still have that tight/muscle contracted feeling – doc says it will go away…eventually ;)
3. Scar looks great on the sides but still hypertrophic in the middle
4. Still vain and thinking about more procedures heehee
5. Planning to go an a diet (yes I plan this every December-this never changes)
6. Miss my RS buddies – I still wish we could all meet and have a party with a show and tell program
7. Still happy overall I did this – no regrets

Well lady, I think you look great. I know what you mean though, once I did my first surgery, the decision to do more came easily. I'm happy I've done what I have. I don't think I'll do any more...at least now I don't, tee hee. I too have numb areas, but I don't care. Nothing "important" is numb, lol. An RS party, great idea. The only people that get this are ones that have done it. I'd do it all over again too! Happy Holidays. :-DSuzy

Hello HappySuzy! Hope you’re doing well too! Thank you for posting. Miss you and our 2013-2014 post op buddies.
Happy New Years Never:)
Heeheee I know what you mean about thinking about some additional procedure - I did the Voluma injections and loved it ! Not sure what happened to the RF shield we used to carry ? Sending my best Never and I do agree a party/reunion would be fantastic !!

Happy New Year to you! I've come VERY close to booking FL surgery but when I actually pick up the phone to do so I totally freak out. There's always that inner voice telling me what if there will be nerve damage affecting my smile, what if I look like a train wreck and need to hide out for more than a month etc. etc. Just too many what ifs!! Also I continue to be terrified of possibly being punished for my vanity in one way or other! I probably need to work on accepting the aging process. I never would have thought that having the TT would make me so vain!!
Hey miss BBNM! Just saw these posts today! So glad we’re in touch on FB and I keep track of you there too wink wink
Hey Never, loved the 2 year review - I've done Voluma last year and loved it. I'm actually looking at getting the girls worked on this year- I've lost weight and shrunk a cup size so now I went from a c up to a b cup ... anyways Never happy new years to you lady!
Hey there miss skinnyinside! How are you doing now? I caught up on your profil posts amd saw you weren’t too happy with the BA. Miss you!
Two years have flown by! You still look great! I miss my RS buddies too!
Miss you too miss SuzQ! Hope alls well with you
