Hi,

I am not putting anything on the scars right now. At first I put neosporin on them but my clothes would get all oily and yuck. I do put 50 SPF sunblock on the arm scars anytime I am going outside for more than just 2-3 minutes as it is important to keep them protected from the sun. It's funny because where the scars are there is a very white area surrounding the scars. The arm scars are darker than the Tummy Tuck scar which is fading very well. The breast incision scars are completely gone now because he cut around the nipple.

I will be adding more pictures shortly. I just ordered a new bikini from Victorias Secret that will be here by Monday!!

Take care,

Misty

Thanks for sharing your story. Great website. Makes me want to go to Mexico to get the rest of my stuff done! Looking forward to your new pictures. How are your arm scars doing? I want to have my arms done. Were they painful?

Misty,

Great website and you look amazing. I have a question to you: I had my lap band surgery in April, 2008. I have to lose 65lbs. What do you say, can I go for Lipo on my hips and arms?

Thanks so much.

The breasts were the least painful, arms were second, Tummy Tuck was third painful, suprisingly, the Lipo and the butt were the worst! My arm scars are doing good! I keep 50 SPF sunblock on them while outside in the sun, the rest of me is tan for the first time in 20 years. I wouldn't be caught dead in a bathing suit before!!

I need to have hubby take some more pics and update the website. Right now I am very bloated from PMS so it will have to be next week. I am sure I don't look any different, but I certainly feel different this time of the month...blah!

Hi there,

Although you would have to consult a PS to answer that for you, my first inclination is to say no, loose the majority of your weight before doing any PS. You might find out you don't need any lipo after getting your weight off! Good luck to you and congrats on getting your band and making the choice to change your life and your health!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
