Princess, looking great in RED, but watch out lawdies cause when I figure out how to post my picks all will be so jealous of my sexy stuff from fredericks that I got last week when I hit 30 lbs.
hehe
I was very lucky Dr. Abkin used 2 old scars from my Gall Bladder operation and a herina repair, so I only have 2 new ones but the one above my button on my jeans still bugs me.
Keep up the excellent work.
Rita-Ann

Mine look worse that that want2lose. I am completely bruised like purple .... plus have the scars. It has only been 8days and the purple is now turning to yuk yellow but it looks bad however if I am thinner then it will be worth it in the long run. I am tired of being fat even though I dress nice I did not like what I saw.. Brendab

Alot of this weight stuff is how you view ones self, I was always told I was pretty but if I just lost a couple pounds..(by so called Friends) I over compenasated for my weight with all the extras makeup, nails, hair, great clothes and designer shoes/purses. and of course my bestest friend JEWERLY..
We are BEAUTIFUL in our husbands/ wives eyes and we are all loved so right there is half the battle. I know very skinny woman who would just die to be in our shoes. and most of all GOD loves us and he created our free will to eat and the doctors have given us a new chance on becoming healthier not just thinner.
God bless,
off to do some "work" outside the home at the law office.. of course today I am sicker than a dog with allergies.......:sick
oh well have a happy day
xoxo Rita Ann

My DH keeps laughing at me that I even care about the scars. Given that most my mid section is totally covered with a million stretch marks, whats a couple little scars thrown in there. I guess I wished they were lower so if I get a TT they would be even lower or gone all together.

I too am a bruised mess and it has been 12 days.It is getting better but the area where the port is now has red bumps but no infection. I think I may have an allergy to the tape. Brendab

City: Lawrence State: Kansas | Here's Before and After
The full size me is the day before my surgery. Then I have one a couple days after the surgery with my steri-strips and band-aids. Like the Hello Kitty?
Then, I have a pic a couple of weeks after where I accidentally ripped open a part of my incision and had to put a steri-strip back on. I'm about 2 1/2 months out now.
