This was very very hard for me to do, for one, I am very modest. Two.. I am very swollen and look terrible.. three I am very modest.

But your "fearless leader" as Kathy loves to call me, followed through. they are in the group photo area. Will post some others to my profile another time.

You are very brave, thanks for sharing your journey. Everything looks great. I'm sure you are so glad to be at this stage(drains gone).  Keep resting and taking good care of yourself.

Fearless leader to the rescue.  Thanks Patrece.  I can see the difference in the one with the sweater.  One day at a time, the swelling will go away soon.

Thanks! I just hope it all smooths and flattens back out soon. It can take up to 6 months for all of the swelling to go away I am told.
I did chicken out and remove one image I had posted. I am a pretty modest person and it was just showing a bit too much for me to have it out there for the entire world wide web to view. It is in my profile pics, but password protected.  If anyone is interested in seeing it, just pm me for the password and I will send it to you. You also have to be on my friend list to access it . If you are not on my friend list you can request to be my friend. Just a way to keep it to those of you who have been following my wls and plastics journey and who I know.

Thanks for sharing you are looking so great. What curves you have Lady (lol). I know we all appreciate your sharing with us and how difficult it is for you to do that.  Hope you know we are all there with you on your privacy. I know for me Im curious about the procedures and what you have gone through and for you to share with the pictrs. just helps me with better understanding. So thanks for going over the comfort zone for us all. It will take time but just take it one day at a time. Before you know it will be summer and time and freedom on your body and a new you...hugs being sent your way.
