One year post op today. 😭❤️

HAPPY ONE YEAR SURGIVERSARY TO ME!! 🎉🎉🎉 One year ago I changed my life for the better times a thousand. It's been a crazy amazing journey so far, and I've got so far still to go! (On IG swipe to see more comparisons) ❤️High weight: 330lbs 💛Preop weight: 292.8 💚Surgery weight: 275 💙Lowest weight: 172.8 💜1 year post op weight: 177 My weight has fluctuated between 172 at the lowest and 180 at the highest over the last few months. I can see my body is really comfortable in this spot; if I eat junky and put on a few I can easily drop it by eating on point a few days. I'm so happy with all the work I've put in and I'm gonna have an amazing next year ~ I can feel it 💝 I love you guys so much, you really keep me going and motivated to kick myself in the butt 💖 If you're on the fence about surgery - DO IT! I'm so disappointed I didn't do it sooner! #vsgfamily #wlscommunity #wlsjourney #wls #vsg #oneyearpostop #transformationtuesday #transformation

My dog ears are ridiculously obvious and I think that's the only part of this that makes me self conscious. When I'm wearing a vest the dog ears flap out of the arm holes and I get weird about keeping my arms by my side. But with some weight loss and possible revision surgery then they should be gone in the future. As you can see, my scars are a very light pink/white and almost unnoticeable at the right angles, especially in the centre of my chest. However, towards the end of my scars under my arms is where it's a darker pink and rather stretched although this doesn't actually bother me because I've been told it's not too obvious. My right nipple doesn't appear scarred at all, however it is more oval shaped and a lot smaller than my left nipple. My left nipple is scarred all the way around and the scarring at the top is where the nipple had a gap when it was healing. Mr Berry reckons most of the scarring was from the stretching as it's the same side that my scars are worse. I very rarely have pain going through my scars/nipples but when pain does come it is a very nasty shooting pain, kind of like someone running a sharp knife along my scars for a few seconds. But after all my body has been through I'm amazed that's all the pain that I get for it. #topsurgery #oneyearpostop #postop #surgery #ftmtransition #ftm #transition #transgendersurgery #mrberry #cosmeticsurgerypartners #stillpayingforit #lgbt #pride #transandproud #transandshirtless

Carried on from my previous post... The sixth (1st) was January and the pains had eased but I was starting to see the consequences under my arms where I had stretched too much, either by lifting my arms too high or by carrying things to heavy too soon. The seventh picture was March and was one of the last pictures I took of my chest. I was ecstatic with the way it looked and had healed, at the right angle it didn't look like my scars even existed. The eighth was today, a year post op. I still massage my scars every now and again when they feel hard and dry. Massaging for 20 minutes softens them right up and removes any hard lumps that have built up over time. My scars are now a very light pink and hardly noticeable. They have stretched considerably under my arms which Mr Berry seemed confused about and has offered revision surgery to sort that, and my obvious Dog ears out. I've decided I'd like to try losing the weight first before considering the revision so he doesn't have to do as much to me and I can look my best. My nipples are not symmetrical in any way but I really couldn't care less. The hot weather over the past few weeks have caused me to be almost permanently topless, even in public in front of other people which was really scary at first, but after some time I started to feel more and more comfortable, especially when none of my Scouts questioned my scars when we were all in the sea. I am honestly in love with my results no matter how stretched or gappy or unsymmetrical they are. I'll do another post to do some close ups on my scars currently so you can see what I've been talking about with my scars and nipples. #topsurgery #oneyearpostop #postop #surgery #ftmtransition #ftm #transition #transgendersurgery #mrberry #cosmeticsurgerypartners #stillpayingforit #lgbt #pride #transandproud #transandshirtless

It has been one full year since I had #topsurgery with Mr Berry and I thought I'd put together a few pictures of the healing process along the way. The first one was a week post surgery, the bloating in my stomach had finally passed and I could truly feel how sore it was to move my arms too far or lift something that was too heavy. One of my nipples was healing a lot slower than the other and I was worried it was slightly infected. The nipple started to come away and left a bit of a gap but after having my post op checkup I was told to just keep an eye on it and it should sort itself out. The second was the 25th September, my scars looked neat and thin and gave me completely the wrong idea about how my scars would look in the end 😅 The third was the 4th October, only a week or so after the September one and yet my scars looked so different, they were darker and harder and I had a lump forming in the centre, right at the end of my right scar that was painful to massage. The fourth was the 26th October. 3 weeks made so much difference as patches of the scars had healed more than the other parts making my scars look like Morse code had been tattooed on my body. The fifth was when everything started settling down a bit in November and was pinking up rather than being red, my nipples were also settling down a lot more but I started to get sharp pains that shot through them even if I was at rest which worried me, but after seeking advice I was to learn that it was just the nerves repairing themselves. The gap in my nipple also hadn't sorted itself out.
