I've had tt, and arm lift and breast lift. Those incisions look great and will heal beautifully. I used silicone scar tape. Be careful not to use Vitamin E. everyone will say to use it but they have done studies to see if it actually works and in several studies it has been shown to not only have zero effect, it can sometimes worsen scars. Mederma and regular lotions are equal but really are equal to doing nothing at all. It makes us feel better like we are doing something but you either are the type that scars one way or another. It has been proven that exposure to sun in the first year actually makes the scarring worse. I wish I had known that when I was younger and would tan after getting stretch marks thinking that would actually help.

      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! 😞
