My scars seem pretty bad to me, and I'm having a hard time seeing the BB scar, but I seem too busy to do the scar creams and silicone and all that. Stopped wearing CG forever ago! I think working out in morning, and running. it just seems like I'm showering so often, I can't seem to think that cream is going to do much good, but I could probably do a lot more of it now. I think I just gave up, and decided to be patient until next year!

Amen to the private instruction, Genetic jinx15. I've been doing pilates since maybe 3 1/2 months. started with very basic work, and am finally getting closer to where I was pre-surgery. Good luck dragonfly!

same boat here, weight is the same or a pound or tow more than surgery day, I was going insane, but I'm trying to not weigh myself now, and just workout. I keep thinking it's the over 40 thing, since I'm 41, and I swear I never believed 1 or 2 years could make that much of a difference...so, I blame it on being over 40, now I'm saying it's swelling (even though I really do think it's some swelling). I understand, my clothes are tight, especially in my thighs, and I was hoping to have a summer where I really felt like I could rock my suit. OH well, next year;) Keep the faith, that's all I can try to do, so it's the only advice I have!

Thanks, I knew I was going to have the big line from hip to hip, and I was completely fine with that...I don't know why, but I had no idea I was going to have a circle around my belly button! knowing how much I have to show my BB, I would have made sure I asked about internal stitches. Apparently, I didn't do enough research. I guess I just didn't think about that. I have seen "internal" stitches where the bellybutton doesn't have a circle around it, so my fault I guess for not asking the right questions. OH, I just looked at your BB, I'd be po'ed to the max. You look gorgeous, great results, but the BB definitely isn't right. Mine has a little part that sticks out on the top, but it's been like that since birth, and it's much better than it was. I might should cancel the July thing, but I'll wait a few more weeks before I decide. Thanks for the encouraging words!

Thanks dragonfly. I've been eating pretty bad since I "gave up" and I'm enjoying life! LOL...if this is what it is, I need to be happy, and I will. Thanks for all your sweet comments!
