Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it. Mslynn

So it sounds like many people have waited until several months or more after the surgery to tell others about the surgery. I've decided to only tell my family (not friends or coworkers) about this. But if I decide to tell later, I'm worried my friends will get their feelings hurt. And I feel like a liar (even if I'm just "omiting certain facts"). How did you all approach this telling after-the-fact? What did you say to your friends? How did they react? Thanks, Mslynn

So my skin hasn't seen light of day in quite a while. But after I get the band, I'm planning on at least resuming sun behavior. Just wondering... do scars tan? :second: How about stretch marks? Thanks for any information! Lynn
