This shows the difference in my laxity depending on if I engage my abdominal muscles.

Year update!
It's been a year!
As you can see, the results are looking really good. I can feel a certain amount of tightness in my abdomen, as if I have an internal girdle, which is strange but not terrible. I still have some residual numbness around my bellybutton, but it's not uncomfortable, just strange. On my breasts, the scarring underneath is hypertrophic enough that I need to have an 18m appointment just to see if they've flattened, but the scar on my stomach is looking nice!
I have literally 0 regrets. None.

You look great! How did that upper bulge go away? Did you do certain exercises? What did your doc say caused the bulge? I'm a year out of surgery and I still have my ridge/upper bulge, especially after I eat. I also still feel very tight on one side of my MR. It's been consistently tight since the surgery. Any info you have to share/help I'd appreciate!

It resolved on it's own. Sometimes I get bulgey up there but I think that's because I don't do anything (still) ... I would say that I definitely see more variation based on bloating, etc.
Does the tightness bother you? Sometimes I'm surprised at how... weird? it feels. Like, it would be uncomfortable only because it's so strange, but it doesn't hurt, per se.
I'm gonna take a look at your review!
