The first pic is three days post-op, and the second pic taken today, at nine days out. The gunky stuff around the scars making them look more red than they are is the surgical super-glue stuff. The top incision has lost its glue, but the others still have theirs. Getting better!

Here is my scar pic from today. I had surgery yesterday.

You have great incisions... those look really good.. dosn't look like you'll have much bruising either.

I hope you are taking care of yourself and walking lots to get ride of the 'gas' pains.

:clap2:

I haven't had my surgery yet but after 2 C-Sections right now my lower belly looks like a big butt with the scar in the middle of it so I don't think these little scars are going to bother me much. I am hoping to have a TT after weight loss and fix the nasty C-section scars though.

Hi everyone.

I was banded last Friday, five days ago. Feeling fine and happy to share my pic (hope it works) I remember how important the visual part was in making my decision.

Just thought I'd share this.. this is my port scar (it was cut open again recently for another surgery, so this was right before).. and how bruised I got after that fill (poked about 10 times).. and the end result is my port was flipped backward!

And that's right after 2nd surgery, a cut over my previous port scar, and a new cut right between the knockers! (The small marks a little bit down from that are scars from the 1st surgery)

I am having the surgery on the 24th of this month. Thanx so much for the pics. It seems that there is almost too much to learn about the band!

      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! 😞
