6 Month Update
Scar is still red but looking lighter in spots. Stretch marks are a bummer. Still hanging in at about 179 lbs but measurements continue to shrink. My butt seems a bit fuller, which is fine by me! :)
5 Month Update
Not a huge visible difference from month 4, but I am feeling more and more confident. Weight today is 171, down 32 lbs from morning of surgery. The scar is lightening a lot, and the rope-like consistency under the scar is getting way better. Maybe thanks to the tip from another RS’er about the hot-cold massager. I’m still using scar cream 2x daily. I’m still so happy I made this choice.
4 month update!
I cannot stress enough: this is one of the best decisions I have ever made. Why?
1: I’ve lost a lot of weight, so my annual physical this week was amazing! No longer pre-diabetic, excellent blood pressure, cholesterol, etc etc.
2: I feel amazing. Before, when I’ve lost weight, I’ve remained so self conscious of my hanging skin. I always wore long tops and pants that were much too big to try and camouflage things. No longer needed. And people tell me every day how great I look.
3: My intimate life is BACK. Even though my husband was always such a sweetie, I had no drive because I felt disgusting. Not so anymore!
I would do this again and again and again.
My scar is healing fine—still red and dark but flat and getting better. Still some rope-like scar tissue under the surface, which I continue to massage. My swelling has finally resolved. It’s still difficult to sit up from a prone position unless I use my arms to prop myself up.
I think that’s it, other than some progress photos.
