10 weeks post op

Me too behind in weight loss and exercising. It took me so long to start again and so busy at work, that its hard to find the motivation. Now starting to put on weight. I'm pleased but wanted to be smaller but its hard to complain. I go back for follow up appt next Monday. My nipples are still healing in the inside. I had a fng and the nipples are now just trying to form. I look good with clothes on, but off not so good. My hormones went all wacky - the estrogen overly came back. I took a round of progestin and that seemed to work. Trying not to take it every month due to side effects, like the one making breasts bigger! Other than that, I'm good and looking forward to wearing a bathing suit for the first time in maybe 30 years!

Glad to hear you are healing and sad and your loses. I miss my cats of 15 and 16 years. My newer cat of 3 years (for the kids) has slowly adopted me and finally became my lap cat while recovering from surgery. Anyway, glad to hear your update and all is going well

Congrats. I hear ya on getting sick! I thought I had avoided all the with the winter colds and then got 2 different ones. And before that I had my peroid for 3 1/2 weeks. So talk about a delay. I am traveling this week and then back to the gym. I am no longer tired of looking at my boobs ( good thing) now it's the tummy flabs! Phase 3 has to start! Good luck to you

My PS said that scar guard works the best. I used it a lot the first month i was allowed ( about 6 weeks post) along with Palmer's (butter like creme or vitamin e oil) prior to scar guard or alone. Then I got sick and lazy. I started using scar guard again and noticed around my nipples that the scar line around got thicker. I think a manual massage with something works best. I heard that most scars turn white anyway so what you want to avoid is the thickness (kelnoids?)

Good luck! You have waited for so long!
