New pics from the office!
$17,000
Hey ladies,
I’m thinking that the split photos keep cutting off so I’ll just upload the ones I took at my PS office this afternoon. He’s very pleased with my healing and is confident that the slight swell I have in my upper abdomen is intraabdominal fat and the area will flatten with weight loss. Guess I’d better buckle down on eating well! :-)
Also, the lighting in the office makes my scars look darker than they are in person. Otherwise all is good!

4 months out
Hey ladies,
I thought I’d update since I’ve hit 4 months. I’m trying to run 3-4 times a week, with the binder on that I had in the last batch of pics as support. I’m still swelling around my period (like now!) and if I’ve had a lot of activity.
The vast majority of the time I feel totally normal. I’m still careful rolling over in bed and if my four year old son tries to climb on me, lol. I even did roller coasters today with no issues.
I’m attaching some photos from before my shower today, and I’m a bit swollen. The first picture in each side by side is from 3 months.
When editing my pictures it looks like they got too zoomed in and I can’t figure out how to fix it, so I hope they are still more visible for you.

First run!!
Hey there!
I’m thrilled to report that my first run (on a treadmill at the Y) went great! I walked 10 minutes for a warmup and then ran 30 minutes slowly without stopping, then walked another 5 minutes. Nothing hurt or felt tight as I feared it would. Hooray!
I’m posting pics of me in my sports bra (Athleta) and the corset style binder I got for working out. It was surprisingly comfortable!
