Hello ladies,
Well its been a year and I still love my results. I started at around 222lbs and I am now down to 167 when my goal was 175. My scar has healed nicely but the left side healed much better than the right so Im probably going to get a tattoo over it :-) my belly button is getting lighter everyday thanks to a steroid creame that I just started using 2 weeks ago. All in all it was a great experience and Im glad I didnt chicken out!

4 and a 1/2 months po
Well its been quite a while since I have really had the chance to get on here and update my review. Well im feeling great and it gets better everyday. I still swell a bit here or there if I do to much. Im bloated in my pics but everything is wonderful and Im glad I did this for me. Im still a bit numb under my scar but nothing to worry about. Im able to workout when I want and Im back to my daily routine. I still have some swelling under my arms and on my flanks where I had lipo but that is going down consistantly. I cant wait to see what I look like at 6 months. Over all I have lost a total of 30 pds since surgery and all im doing now is toning. Its been quite a journey but I wouldnt change a thing :-) My scar is doing well, better on the left than the right. Im using scarguard MD and vitamin E oil and so far so good.

Ok so I have been so busy I have not had time to get on here like I wanted. So I have been back to work for just about 2 weeks everything is normal I swell some near the end of the day but nothing like during those first couple weeks. I have feeling back in my stomach almost 100% only numb area is my actual incision. Hubby is very happy im feeling better if you know what I mean ;-). As of this coming Tuesday Im clear for any workout I want so Im about to hit my pilates machine! Overall everything is good, im in NO pain at all and only sneezing gets me a tad sore but it quickly passes. My scar is doing amazing thanks to coconut oil and mepitac tape. My pre op clothes fit wonderfully it actually looks like I may need to take in a few things once im all done with swelling. The only downside is that due to no working out my legs are soo jiggly now and they are so weak I know I lost muscle mass for sure in my legs. Alas I will get it back very shortly. I just want to go shopping bad but I know I need wait til around 3-4 months to really see my results. My hubby bought me 4 new swimsuits that should be delivered any day now and I am fitting back into on of my favorite suits :-) all in all Im glad I did this!

You look awesome....
Msdot.. You are looking and doing wonderful.....enjoy the exercise
You look great! Your recliner pictures cracked me up!! So glad that you are feeling and look fantastic. : ))
You look awesome, do you mind me asking about how much you weigh now?? I was right around your weight so I'm wondering if you dropped any weight 6 weeks out?
I dont mind at all! I started at 217 and I am now 199 so total loss since surgery
18pds :-)! Now that I can workout I hope to drop maybe 10 more or actually just tone up my arms and legs so Im thinking that could equate to 10 pds lost we will see.
You look fabulous!!
