I'm not liking these scars

ONE MAJOR thing that I am not happy about is the scaring. I never really had any scars on my body and after the surgery I didn't think they looked so bad. But now they are dark and seem to be EVERYWHERE. Most people say they fade away over time like all other scars but I just hate that they are there. I guess I knew that going in right?! So anyway...I purchased the SkinMedica scar removal kit from my Doctor and I sure hope it produces fast results. It set me back about $300 but the way I feel about these scars, I would have paid anything for something that will get rid of them. I just want them gone. This kit is supposed to be used twice a day with a AM and PM regimen. I'll keep you all posted on the progress. Again, I want to see BIG results by end of April.

Still on the positive side of things

These pics are from 5 weeks post op. I really like the way I look and I think my progress is as best as can be expected. I am still in pain in certain areas, mainly my inner thighs, hips, lower back, and the back of my arms. My abs are not really sore anymore but still very numb. I will say that everyday does seem to get better. The massages help a lot. I am now at the point where I can get regular massages and I find that sports massages (stretching techniques) help the most. They also help with the pain I feel in my hips and lower back.
My doctor has cleared me to start working out whenever I feel like it and I AM READY. I am so ready to tone these muscles and create the final look for this new body. I hope to have MY final results by the end of April because that's when I want to be swimsuit/beach ready. I will keep y'all updated on my workout progress.
I'm watching what I eat. No dieting or anything crazy, just small changes like adding more vegetables to my diet. I honestly want to create something that I will be able to work with and not give up on. Overall I feel good and I love the way I look. One thing to note. Because my breast size and my butt size did not change, my actually clothing size has not changed. I tried on a smaller top and they would not button with my D cups however I do look like I need to get my tops taken in at the waist. My legs will fit smaller jeans but since I did not get anything done to my outer thighs and butt, I still wear the same jeans…they just fit a whole lot differently. Meaning they look better and I love that I can wear a crop top if I want.

I waited a while to post about my doctor and his staff, just to be sure all was well until the end. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr.Newall and his entire staff. I am so glad I chose this doctor. it's funny because once I chose Dr.Newall, I never second guessed my decision like I notice some people do. If you read my posts, I looked onto several doctors in several major cities. I could have gone anywhere. If I had to do it all over again...I wouldn't change a thing as far as my doctor and his office is concerned.
