She then pulls the side of her shorts slightly below her waist and zooms in on a horizontal scar running across her hip.
"Here's something I don't share," the text reads. "The scar from the tummy tuck I had years ago."
Palin offered fans a few more glimpses at the scar on both hips.

"Way 222 easy to compare ourselves on here," reads the post's caption. "Just a reminder not to."
