Oh you wouldn't want to see my incision sites LOL. My left one, main one, got terribly infected and had to be packed for quite some time by visiting nurses for about 2 to 2.5 weeks. then my husband had to pack it when it finally got smaller. Other than that my drain incision healed up quick after it was taken out. I have some redness left from the infected site and one other site. The other site is because stitches poked through that needed to be cut just last week. Still healing up well though.

Hey yours look great! I was in the hospital with my surgeon yesterday for a check up and he brought resident docs in when I wanted to show off my incisions. Pretty impressive what docs can do hey?!

Awe, Kristy that just makes it easier to conceal. I picked up bio oil and it's great, rub, rub, rub:)

Thanks ladies. I can't see the pic of the drain' date=' always wondered what it looked like...and what it's for..[/quote']

I had my drain taken out tis past Tuesday, it is a long rubber tube with like a lightbulb looking end to it (i have attached a pic) where extra fluids from the body are drained out to. You need to drain it a couple of times a day. At first it was really red, then it becomes pink then clear. All I have left now is the hole healing.

I know!!!!! My left scar and the one in my navel is barely noticable. They are the ones that shock me the most.....especially compared to some I've seen.

I heal really fast you can't see anything. One dot I think.

No mine are healing up real nice except for the big one and I have a stich sticking out that has worked it self out from the inside got to see doctor Tuesday Becuse of side affects for Med's will have them yank it out then.

From what I'm told never seen any pictures of anybody that got to their goal weight what they look like or if they still have badges to show their Journy
