I posted some 1 month post op pics to my profile (password: flattummy)

I wanted to share some before and afters here though. 

After taking this off a month ago...


I went from this



To this



I've had some seroma problems since they took my last drain out, so I've been retaining lots of fluid under the incision and in my mons that I have to go get drained every couple of days, so I'm still a little more swollen than I'd like to be... but considering I'm in my pre-pregnancy pants again, I can't be but so upset.

Just wanted to share!

You look great!  Thanks for sharing your pics.  It really helps pre-ops to see what they have to look forward too!

Oh, hahah! Thanks! I didn't have them done (but I need to). They have a lot of extra skin up top when my legs are parted.... but I'm not going to get too worked up about it. My main peeve was my tummy and now that it's gone... I'd be happy if I didn't ever have to get anything else done.

 take one step at a time
when do you stop feeling so tight, I feel as if someone cut me in half and sewed me back together. doctors Silver worked on me also, that man is a god.  I get to see him this week.
