Did you use anything on your scars to help diminish them? I have an old Tummy Tuck scar that is ugly and 2 of my incision sites for this surgery look really bad. Not sure if they will heal as nice as yours. They used my old lap scar from when I had my hysterectomy years ago and stretched out my belly button :0 ! But I am hoping mine will heal as nicely as yours. I have a few years of age on me compared to you....but what it shakes out to look like. ....i will be happy!

You look amazing. I know you see imperfections, but most people would only see how great you look.

I did not use anything on my scars. I rarely put anything on my skin, not even lotion, so these scars are au natural ;)

whaaaaat. Girl, you look FABULOUS. I'm 20 years old and 5'3" and weigh more than you did at the start, but if I look ANYWHERE near as good as you when I hit my goal, I think I'll be jumping for joy. I can't tell that you ever even had a weight problem. ROCK ON!!!

Thanks so much for sharing! I have been googling scars heaps!! My stats are very similar in just a little taller. I have been dousing myself in lotions hoping it will help the skin bounce back. Can I ask, do you exercise a lot?

      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! 😞
