Hello again! + pic update (TT 8 months out)

Without making too much of a brouhaha, hello again! I know i have a habit of posting faithfully for a while then dropping off the face of the planet. This time I was gone for quite a few months. I had a severe case of mononucleosis which lasted 3 months (I guess that's what happens when you don't date at all until you're in your late 20's, then suddenly start kissing people- you get mono!) and then had to deal with a man who was stalking me. Very stressful. But hopefully resolved.

ANYWAY!!! Lot of new faces on here!

I am having a breast revision on my left implant, which has moved about an inch sideways into my armpit. And a brachioplasty. TODAY!!! Agh!!! I leave in about an hour.

I had my breast lift with augmentation 9 months ago and my tummy tuck 8 months ago! Here is a pic of my anchor-cut TT as it looks today. I also added a picture of my breasts and a close-up of my bellybutton to my photos, you can go check it out there.

There is some hyperpigmentation which looks like a shadow/bulge, but it's really just two lines of a type of permanent 'bruising' which can happen. I forget the name of it. The pigment runs at a diagnoal from my waist pointing down towards my crotch, like a 'V'. My dermatologist said it might take years to resolve, or might never go away. I frankly don't care, I have a flat stomach that doesn't "clap" when I walk up and down the stairs. Hallelujah!

I will post before/after pics of my brachioplasty later on. After I've had the procedure :D

If you are not friends with me and would like to view my pics, you can send me a friend request. 8 months post-op

 Wow lizzy, you look incredible!  Good for you!  Sorry to hear about the mono part, but sounds like you have a good sense of humor about it.  Hopefully you are feeling better and hope this kissing's been good!
Hope your stalker has been taking care of.  Many years ago I had one myself.  Scarey stuff.  Not the kind of attention you hope to attract!  
Hope your proceedure when well today.
Good luck!

Impressive work by your PS!

Only thing "fun" about mono is catching it!  Had a case of it back in college many, many, many moons ago.  Happened during "dead" week before finals.  It was not pretty.

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

Fantastic. I'm in Seattle and will likely need a PS. Who was yours?
