2 Month Postop (new pics)

Well, lets hope for a good summer with hot bodies to lift our spirits....I know that this weather alone has been enough to depress me. It has not really gotten too warm and I think that also has been adding to my funk. I also made some remarks to my husband that made him stop and say "are you serious??".....but I am getting better and I think the depression is lifting as well..

I said the SAME thing....and my husband reminds me of it daily....especially when I start whining about something I am not happy with. It is a very big adjustment....one that I was not quite prepared for. I just assumed I would have this done and everything would be great. The emotional roller coaster has been a lot worse than I thought and that is what is really causing me issues. I just need to pull out my before pictures and always remember what I use to look like and what I look like now. It really is a mind thing....and I think you are right....once we get use to the new body....we will be so much happier.....at least that is what I am hoping.

Thank you. Yes, those stitches cause that puffiness....mine seem to not be dissolving very quickly....especially the ones around my left breast. VERY PUFFY...sort of puts me in mind of a pepperoni slapped on for a nipple...lol. Definitely have to agree about bathing suit shopping being much more fun....I have been ordering from Victoria's Secret and although I have had to send a few tops back....I have been quite pleased the the suits overall....and they are always having "free shipping" and specials on stuff. I haven't been shopping in the stores much. I like the privacy of my home and the convenience. As far as going out in the sun, my PS recommended that even if I had my scars covered with a bathing suit I still needed to wear sun protection on my scars. He said that the sun would still reach the scars and then they would get darker and look worse. He said to wear the SPF. So I am going to do that and then I am going to spray on my kelo-cote silicone spray to keep the SPF from rubbing off. That way I won't have to continuously be reapplying the SPF the silicone should stay on even in the water. I do not scar well as it is....so I want to make sure that they do not get any darker or wider than they are now. My belly button has me worried.

Thank you! I am starting to slowly feel better. Other than being a little peeved about the lipo....I am happy with the results....they get better as the weeks go on. The lipo was not extra it was suppose to be done to contour and reshape my hips. I am 100% positive that it was not done. He may not remember what the hell he did, but I can tell from my hips that he did not do any "contouring". If he did then it was a very sucky job!

Ann.....can I just say that I am in love with your boobs :) They look so natural. I hope that when my settles and everything is in place that mine will look as good as yours....you look great! I, too, need to stop being ungrateful. My husband and I looked at my before and after pictures together and he said there are no words to describe the amazing "positive" changes my body has gone through. If you look at your before pictures it really does help you become a little more grateful for what you have. You kind of forget how bad it was prior to surgery because you have other things that you are obsessing over now. P.S....thanks for the support that you have given me....I appreciate it :)
