Scar revision

So I had my scar revision done today. It was a very weird experience for me. I was awake for the whole thing. She just numbed me up real good. She used a electric thing to cauterize which I felt I few time, it felt like it made my stomach clench. The whole cutting the scar tissue our felt like she was scrapping it with a spoon. Lol. When she was stitching me up she had to put a few staples in to pull it together and I felt three of them suckers. It wasn't that bad though. We had fun talking about what we did over the summer and we listened to some Coldplay. She is so down to earth. Makes me wanna go get more done. Lol. Here are some pics of what it looked like before and now. I'll post another after it's all healed up!

I went to the gym today and worked out, no ab work though still kinda scared it might hurt! I tanned too!( don't tell my dr lol) I kept my scar covered! I'm totally back to my old self now. I still get super swollen by the end of the day. I literally look pregnant, but by morning I'm flat again. It's weird and I hope it stops soon.
I LOVE how I look in clothes now, I can't wait for swim suit weather!!! It's gonna be the best summer in a long time.
On another note the hole is completely closed now, just a very small scab on top. I'm gonna go in a few months and have it revised so my scar will be straight across.
I hope everyone is doing great!!

I'm just over 2 months, I just had my 33rd birthday and it was fabulous.
I've been to the dr a few times since I last talked with you guys. She trimmed my scab the first visit and I had to start putting gauze with a little sodium chloride on it 3 times a day. After. Few days the rest of the scab fell off. It's getting smaller and smaller now. I'm over taking showers all the time and I'm ready for this to be healed up so I can take a long hot overdue soak in the tub. .
She did some measurements today. I lost 3 inches around my rib cage which is good since that was my most hated area, 6 inches in my waist, and 5 around my hips. I'm also staying around 148-152lbs which is down from 155-160. Here are some pics from the last few weeks
