Hello everyone, Its been a while since I have...
Hello everyone, Its been a while since I have updated my review. Life is getting very much back to normal. Work, rest and play (!) all going good. Had a second post op review with CS and all in good order and he is very pleased. Pleased to say scar and belly button completely healed. Doing my scar therapy treatment every day without fail and the scar line is now soft and getting lighter which is great. Belly button hole a bit discoloured but I am hoping that this too will lighten over time. Enjoying ever single minute of being able to wear nice fitted clothes. Looking forward to the summer months now. Nothing out of the ordinary to report, just very very thankful that my procedure and recovery have gone so well, I feel very blessed as I know some ladies have a very rough time of it. Good luck to everyone who is about to start their "adventure" on this journey to the flat side and those who have already taken the plunge, hope your healing goes really smoothly. Take care all.Suzi x

Hi to all my buddies. I am having real issues with the website atm. I am sorry if I have not replied to any private emails or tags to my posts. For some reason I cannot get into my review direct when I log on.
Anyhow, on the assumption that this is going to work, I thankfuly continue to make good progress. In the week I did get a "spitting" stitch out of my belly button. It was no big deal and was soon resolved by a lovely nurse at my hospital just trimming it back. Apparently this can occur and providing you take the appropriate action ie. trimmed back or removed, it should cause no problems. In fact, it hadn't hurt me at all. I just thought it was where the BB was healing as was a bit of loose skin. I had been tugging on it gently to remove it for a couple of days until I had a light bulb moment and thought mm actually, you probably shouldnt be doing that, it might be a stitch - Bingo... it was a stitch. lol...
Apart from that, everything is cool. Work good, no swelling at the end of the day. Probably no need to wear CG's now but I will for a little while yet coz they make me feel "secure". Its lovely to wear jeans again and to not have a muffin top or pouch under the waistband....
Take are buddies... For anyone having surgery this week, I wish you the very best of luck, to my buddies alreay on the flatside, take care of yourself.

Just a quick line to say thank you to those who contacted me re coughing and how sore and wrotten it makes you feel. It would appear that I am not alone in feeling like this at the moment as there are so many flu and cold germs about it is hardly surprising that a lot of us have gone down with something. My persistent cough and subsequent soreness in my tummy was really getting me down yesterday. You lovely ladies picked me back up and together with a gentle soothing bio-oil tummy massage (from hubs - thank you darling) and a good nights sleep... feeling much much better today. In fact, I'm back to being Mrs Positive !!! Life is good..... If you have a cough, and you are feeling sore today - Keep calm and carry on taking the cough mixture (along with bracing the tummy with a pillow or hands each and every cough!! lol.... Take care peeps... Suzi
