How does your lower belly feel? It is numb at all? And also your navel, does it have the normal feeling? My sister has hers done and her lower belly is still numb in spots and no feeling in her navel. Almost 1 years old now

I finished mine over a year and a half ago they were still a few spots that are numb but that's one of the trade off for me it's totally worth it I don't care if my whole stomach is numb as long as I don't look like I used to

What a crazy two months it has been! Between recovery and becoming accustomed to my new body, time really flew. I can say this has definitely been a life altering surgery - in both good ways and bad ways. I had a few emotional weeks which thankful for the wonderful people on RS warned us about. Mostly I am so happy with the surgery and my results. My PS is phenomenal! I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon. So here are my 2 month progress pictures. The band aid on my scar is from a small bout with MRSA that happened on my scar. We thought my stitches were creating abscesses since they weren't dissolving. My PS cultures the area to be sure and it was MRSA. She was so on top of this situation, my infection was under control in 3 days with prescribing Bactrim, a sulphur based antibiotic, and putting silver sulfadine on the infected area. I continue to rub Regenacyn on my scar twice a day. I hope everyone is healing well! I will update at the 3 month mark

Thank you! I've been lucky to have no swelling. I have to watch what I eat and really be strict on my diet otherwise I look terrible and you can feel the stretch in my belly. I think you look amazing also! So glad to see your results!

Week 5 post op

I had my week 5 post op yesterday. My incision is still red but my PS thinks it's just how my body heals. I don't have to see her again until 3 weeks. I will post this week and my complete 6 week pics then start posting monthly since nothing really is changing anymore. The one thing I need to stick to is my diet. If I don't, I am going to ruin all of this work! I still don't wear a binder of any kind. My body aches with it and it makes me miserable. I guess I am lucky because I don't have any swelling issues. I hope everyone is healing well.

Thank you! I have been lucky with no swelling but I have to watch what I eat and how much. I will swell so bad it starts to pull on my incision. How are you? I hope everything is going well.
