Took the 8 week pictures yesterday I felt the best I have in some time, it was casual day so I could wear my under armour compression tights they help, then this morning I am still swollen, but it is going to take time, I keep thinking well this is better than what I had so maybe if the swelling ever leaves it will get better.

Amazing Beje. Please accept that you have come a long way and it will only get better.
You should put a presurgery next to your most recent pix and see the dramatic changes. I know the swelling is a bummer but it will leave in time.
Continued good healing and keep your spirits up!!!

8 weeks, wow in some ways it seems so long ago and other ways it seems not so long. Well 8 weeks ago I would have thought I would be feeling a lot better by now, but it is OK, I am trying to realize it is going to take longer to feel normal, but this new tummy is going to last me my lifetime, so whatever I need to do I am going to do! I am eating carefully and trying not to gain weight while not exercising. Maybe tomorrow I will take some more pics and see if you can see a difference from the 6 weeks pic. Still glad I did it, still think my doc is super, just impatient with the healing and swelling. Today is also my 100th day as a non-smoker so I am quite thrilled about that!!

Wow! Do you know how long it took me to get to the bottom of your page to comment? If this was a popularity contest you would have it hands down. Lol ok I am done playing around. You look so good and have come just such a long way. It is crazy that you still have all the swelling and I hope that goes away very soon for you. Your looking lovely keep up the good work girl!

100 days without smoking and no weight gain. That is beyond amazing. Your scar looks longer did he go around? Also by your vagina did he lift your thigh? From what i hear swelling goes down. So your body took a dramatic hit. I did not recover from my sections quick. It took 4 most. You could see i had a lot of swelling when you pressedfinger on my skin left white mark. It took 4 months. I also could not wear any of my shoes for about 6 mos. I keep reminding myself that. If the wt is off its 95% of the battle. I have decided not to weigh myself or try on clothes for awhile. It just makes me irrational and depressed. You know all this its just so hard to get past

I just passed my 5 month non-smoking! It's a daily battle there, but so far so good. Like all the rest of it, one day at a time...Just for today I will eat sensibly and not smoke. Tomorrow is another day, I'll worry about that when it happens!!

Amber,
Haven't been on for awhile, like you started to get depressed looking at others results and comparing..but we all know, that is what we do. I am at 10 weeks today. Still have swelling, not used to the scar yet....it is what it is. Being Latina my scar is still dark and prominent, but I knew what I signed up for. I am back at the gym...treadmill, Precor and bike..legs and butt. It will be slow go. And tell me, is it just me, or does everyone have extra appetite now? Although, luckily I share meals and get full really fast. BTW, i love your pics.. you look so skinny girl.

Mia, I really think the Palmers oil will decrease your scars. I have children "of color" and noticed early on their tendency to keloid and have more scarring issues than my other children. I have used it with great results on them

PalmersMothera8,
My doc recommended Maderma, but read the reviews and wasn't impressed, so been using coconut oil, Palmers and Scarguard silicone strips..And Vitamin E oil..Next up Palmers oil. My scar isn't horrible, just not as light as ladies with less melanin :-(
