7 months post op blues

It's been a little over 7 months since my surgery. I do not regret the decision i made, i do however regret the lack of care i have been taking of myself. Post surgery i have gained around 25lbs. I'm not sure why, but I feel like I became very content with myself and just kinda gave up trying. I started taking an anti depressant ankle 5 months ago which in my mind i believe led to my stale thinking. I did not feel anything for the lady few months. I stopped caring. So i felt like i was finally ready to get off the meds and start my life as"me" again. It had been 3 days since I have been off the medication and i feel my motivation for life coming back. I feel my motivation to workout and eat right is stringer than ever. So I pledge to myself I will finally have the body I deserve. It's going to take more work than i expected it to but im sure in not the first person in history that this has happened to. My stomach still looks great, i do wish that i had gotten lipo of my flanks because i look like i have a muffin to in my pants. ..but i know with diet it will go away. But other than that i love my boobs and my scar is starting to fade nicely. I am considering asking the doc about my small dog ears but i want to give them time before i jump into another procedure.

Feeling insecure

I am 18 weeks post op. I have gained some weight. Ive been eating like crap. Stress is the primary factor. I have not been working out the way I want to. I just feel blah. I was hoping at this time in recovery i would be feeling excellent but the truth is im not. My stomach looks great and so do my boobs but the rest of my body needs some serious work. I feel like I have become very lazy. Slightly unmotivated as well. I am happy to say my husband is home and everything feels normal again. So that's a plus. But i still don't feel good about my apperiance. Mostly because i know it can be better. I need to stop being so unmotivated. But other than that things are looking good surgery wise. I still think my belly button looks weird but it's just because it is still red. It is fading but talking more time than i would like. When i gain weight, its not in my stomach but in my hips and thighs! So I feel slightly out of proportion right now. But i know it will change once i get back on the ball of working or and eating right. I bought an ultrasonic device that is helping soften my scar. It is working well.

6 days after start of raw food diet

I feel incredible. I dont know how much i have lost but I know im thinner! My body feels super healthy and I feel my energy picking up day by day. The little bit of swelling i had left is starting to subside and I am starting to feel great. Thanks Melissa! I wouldnt have even considered doing this without you and your guidance!!
