1 month Post-OP - Gastonia, NC

I'm 6 months post-op and I'm still loving my results. I have a few issues with my scar - it's healing very slowly; but my PS is going to provide me with some options at my 6 month appointment. My struggle with weight remains, I still have to force myself to work out and count calories. I've lost 14 pounds since my surgery; but had lost 19.5!! My vacation caught up with me and I have not lost any of that weight yet. I'm considering lipo of my flanks at the 1 year mark because I did not do that during my TT surgery.

I'm 26 days Post-Op and LOVING my new look!! I will post photos later tonight. My scar is healing amazingly and even though it's high on the end; I'm not complaining! Having this procedure has given me so much more confidence and I'm just thankful that my recovery was not bad.

Does anyone have any recommendations on scar therapy? My PS hasn't given me any directives on how to make this scar diminish. I love my compression girdle. I wear it every day to work!!!

Day 7 - PO; my drains were removed yesterday!! Yippee!! Now I can devote 100% of my time being concerned with the swelling!! I'm so swollen that it's scary, however my PS states that normal!! I walked a mile yesterday in addition to walking the grocery store and department store!! I'm drinking lots of water; watching my sodium intake and I"m still swollen!! I go back on Monday to have the sutures removed from my belly button; which is quite cute!! I drove to the hair stylist today and did very well. I feel good most of the time; but not 100% like myself. I have a few more days of rest before I'm back to the real world!! I survived Christmas without sharing with my parents, in-laws and my stepmom!! That was quite an accomplishment!!!
