HNT: Bruisey bloated post-surgical me

I told you all about my amazing bruises after my sugery. Here they are in all their past glory. Note the fully purple bikini zone? That color extends south. I didn't photograph that, though. You'll just have to imagine.

Now, however, things are generally back to normal. I have just the tiniest hints of bruise in the bikini zone. The rest has faded.

I was still a bit bloated in these shots from the air they put in me for the appendectomy, too. Not that you'd notice, but I do.

Per the rules, the origin and explanation of HNT is here.
