    Thank you Melissa! healing been ok... I was expecting pain but I was on top of my medicines and after like day 4 I stop taking the pain med and only my antibiotic... I'm so happy I did it! I been for 18 years with the same tummy so I still can't believe how my tummy looks now :)

    I know what you mean... the last 10lb were the hardest for me... it help me to eat half of what I was eating (I stop eating things like bread, pasta, potatoe, rice, sweets, soda, juice) I got my carbs from fresh fruits... and excercise 4-6 days a week... but keep positive... and you'll make it happen!

    Thank you Jenn! you look awesome too! :) I still have a lot of swelling (specially in the afternoon)... I wear my garment every day and night (I take it off only when I shower) my ps told me that I can use anything that snuggle my tummy... he said to be careful with the corset style because the boning (might hurt me and I won't feel it in some parts)... I haven't start any scar therapy... I'm just using steri-strips to give it some pressure... although I bought already the Scar-Away for c-section... I'm waiting until my next appt (in 2 weeks) so I can ask my ps if I can start with the scar-away... oh and I'm massaging every morning n night the lower left side of my tummy because it was so tight (is also the part that's most swollen everyday)... after like 3 weeks of massaging is getting way better... happy healing!!!
