WORTH IT$10,200
I am currently 10 months post op. I can’t believe that I will soon be reaching my 1 year anniversary. It’s crazy how time flies. All in all things are going well. I am exercising on and off (trying to stay consistent but it is not easy…. I am sure you know what I mean). I am happy with my results. My only regret is not talking to the doctor about the placement of my scar before the surgery. I wish the scar was lower. Oh well. To all of the ladies considering a TT, be sure to ask all of your questions BEFORE the procedure. I can’t stress enough how important this is.
I recently had a dog ear fixed. It did not hurt much. The doc numbs the area before fixing. Now it is red, let’s see how it heals.
To all my realself buddies… be sure to continue to post your updates. Bejewel, I miss hearing from you. Hope things are going
well. Happy healing everyone! Until next time.

Post Op 13 weeks. It has been a few weeks since I posted. Nothing new to report. I have 2 weeks left on the scar treatment then I am done for good. I can't wait. I uploaded new pictures. I miss my tummy massages. I haven't been able to get one in a while.
I am maintaining my 3 day a week workout routine. It's not a lot of working out but something is better than nothing. I do work really hard during the 1 hour each of those 3 days. After working out, when I stretch my sides I feel a burning sensation in my muscles. I am thinking it may have something to do with the lipo. Any of you experience this?
Have a great summer!

Good for you putting stuff on your scar, I got lazy and figure oh well no one sees this, LOL I dont have burning but still much swelling and numbness from the BB down, I feel it most in planks, I can do crunches, bicycles, but in the plank position my core really hurts, they opened a new MMA bootcamp type workout place near my house I am liking that, I am hoping this will burn some fat off!!!

Good to hear from you Amber. Boot camp sounds like fun. I am sure it will be hard work. But it will definitely pay off in the end. Yes, I have no idea how I have kept up with the silicone sheets. Just 2 weeks to go. Perfect timing since it is starting to get real warm outside. Enjoy your summer!

Post Op 10 weeks. Nothing much to report this week. Same 'ol same 'ol stuff. Exercising 3x a week and using the Scaraway Silicone sheets. I am on my second and last pack. I have about 6 more weeks to go with the sheets. At night, I am using Topricin and massaging my scar and tummy area. Every now and again I use the Bio Oil. I still feel the need to get professional tummy massages due to scar tissue. I will be seeing my PS after the summer.
Hope everyone had a great mother's day!

Hey Special, Its been a little rough the past few days. I found out I had a infection in my incision. So, Dr. Parker sent me straight over to Valley Hospital for a few days to get some heavy duty drugs to get rid of the infection. So, hopefully I'm on track. I'm starting to feel normal again. I have a host of follow up appointments next week with the ID Doctors!

oh wow, so sorry to hear that. I am glad you are doing better now. Don't worry, as each day passes, it will get better. It seems like it is going to take forever, but it goes fast. Take care of yourself.
