Hey guys

It seems not allot of u show us ur scars in the healing process and i just wanted to share how my scars are doing so far. They have finally decided to go down from being puffy but there still very red and i've been using mederma and Vitamin E oil but it's been a battle to remember to keep applying every few hours and i must admit there have been days where i've forgot totally. Anyway update us all with how your scars are healing :)

I have pics of my scars, but don't really want to put them on a public forum. I did take one picture right after surgery for personal reference, but it's naked and I def don't want that one floating out into the 'net! :)

Mine are healing up very well. I can still find all of the lower incisions, but they are a very light pink. My drain hole is the least healed, and it looks like a pink spot on my side. The upper incision, under my left breast, is almost completely healed and takes a minute to find, even for me.

I've been using Neutrogena body oil since right after surgery on all of my skin except my face. It has helped with the dry skin issues I was having, plus it smells great! :)

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
