Not much doing here...
I'm still excited about summer. I have bought too many shirts and tank tops already!
My arms haven't changed much. I'm posting a pic of what the scars look like from behind me with my arms at my sides so you guys can get a better idea of my incision placement.
My scars are definitely getting darker, but I know they do that as they mature. I use sunscreen daily. Still wearing my garment most of the time and long sleeves when I'm outside.
I hope everyone is doing well and having happy and healthy recovery.

Just over a month here...
Well, it's been a month since my surgery. I cannot believe how fast the time went by. Alas, I have to return to work tomorrow which is a major bummer. :(
At my one month follow-up, I'm cleared to start exercising and slowly working up to where I was. I forgot to ask about weight lifting and such, so I'm waiting to hear about that. I'm ready to tone these guns!
My Biocorneum cream came in, so now I am using that. It contains sunscreen. I have been advised to wear sunscreen on all my scars to protect them because the sun can make them darker.
My next appointment will be in two months. I'm just posted a couple of close up pics of my scars.

Three weeks, already!
Wow! I can't believe how fast this time has went. In the last week, I've really been feeling more like myself. I'm driving, walking, and shopping!
Not only is the surgery expensive, but the costs of buying clothes for summer is adding up! I'm having a blast trying on all sorts of clothes that in the past I would never even consider.
Used to be, the first thing I looked at was how long the sleeves were on a shirt. Even stores like Old Navy, Kohl's, and many others seemed like all the sleeves have been getting shorter and shorter through the years. This time of year, all the cute tees with cap sleeves are coming out. Well, now I'm a short sleeve fool!
I have even bought quite a few tank tops....;)
I made some comparison pics. They are all before and currently at three weeks post. I tried to wear a same outfit and stand in same poses to maintain continuity. I will post pics of my scars when I see a change, they look pretty much the same so far.
Good luck with all your procedures and goals!

I will complete this after the procedures. So far, everyone from the coordinator, nurse, and my doctor have been great. I feel like they really want me to be happy and have my best interests at heart.
