You got it. Just didnt wanna gross anyone out.

Gotta say' date=' it's one of the best pics of it I've seen. I looked for shots like this when I was PRE op and didn't find anything.

Is it teeny tiny? I can try to make it bigger somehow. I'm on my phone and sometimes it posts itty bitty.[/quote']

Most drains only remain in a couple days and I didn't even know I had one until I checked out my tummy. Never bothered me and it only felt weird coming out but not painful. They just sterilize the area pull it out and sterilize the area again and close it. Piece of cake

They didn't close my drain hole, they said it would close on it's own. No steristrips or anything on it. I put a bandaid on it for a few days because I didn't want to get blood on my clothes, it took about 5 days for the hole to completely close on it's own. It's my smallest scar now, it's not nearly as raised as the others.

Don't forget your shirt that says "I left my stomach in Tijuana"

Ahhhhhh that too! Lol

So cool to see! Thanks for sharing. Now I'm wondering if I can get a picture of mine...lol.

Isn't that MY stomach!? Haha!

I see it fine WOW. That's incredible.

Wow, that's really cool! I'm sure it's still inflated with saline at this point, but its huge! I can't wait until mine is gone April 9

I can see it just fine on my Android!

I went to my pre op visit on Tuesday and my surgeon said that they don't test the portion of the stomach that they remove so my picture should look different.

What Dr did you go to? I love the pics and would like to ask for a pic of mine when it's removed. Thanks!
