All I can say is I'm incredibly happy with my results and I would do it again in a heartbeat! I'm a year out and here is a picture ... (I'm on a business trip now, but when I get home I will post a new picture with the scar; it's not bad).

So, I'm two months out and feel fantastic. I'm wearing silicone strips over my incision and drain site scars and am very happy with how it all looks. I am back to about 90% physically - I can box and run and all that, but I can't do a plank or other core exercises yet.

You look great! I hope all is still going well for you. What kind if silicone strips are you using and are they making a difference for you? Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
I am using ScarFX (about $40 on Amazon) and my scar hasn't gotten purple or raised, which I was told to expect, so I'd say they are probably working. I wear them all the time, wash them when I shower and put them back on. The first one I bought is still working after 5 weeks, so I'd say $40 is a good deal.
You look great!

I'm exactly 6 weeks and a day out - this morning my husband and I jogged around the neighborhood (my first jog since the surgery) and it felt fantastic. I'm a little out of shape but we went at least 3/4 mile and my tummy didn't hurt in the slightest. I did wear my binder to be more comfortable, which was probably a good idea. :-)
I'm also doing Gold Gym's Cardio boxing on the Wii as well as some other Wii for activities. It's all going very well.
Good luck!

You look great! We had the same surgery date. I go to my PS tomorrow, and am hoping to be cleared for light weight lifting, squats, and more exercises. I've tried to increase my walking, but it makes me swell :( My scar has been covered by silicone strips the last three weeks, so I am kind of anxious to see it. Congrats on your smooth recovery!!
looking awesome
Go girl! You look great!
