I Just Had Got a Tummy Tuck Yesterday, I'm Very Sore but Today I'm Starving. What Can I Eat?

What should I eat and being that I got a tummy tuck can I eat whatever I want???

A: Eating after tummy tuck surgery Eat and drink conservatively to avoid nausea from the anesthesia. Start with clear liquids, such as soup, or bread. Stay away from dairy products, greasy or fried foods, etc. for a few days. Just basic common sense. Also, eat moderately before taking the pain medication so it won't nauseate you.

A: Two procedures one week apart Putting aside the issue of whether you are a candidate for either surgery, most board certified anesthesiologists will not participate in cosmetic procedures one week apart. The minimum time between procedures, to avoid anesthesia complications, is 4 weeks and, when a tummy tuck is involved, I would prefer a 6 week interval.

A: You are a candidate for weight loss not surgery

You are a candidate for weight loss not surgery - your BMI is almost 40. Most plastic surgeons will not do a full tummy tuck on patients with a BMI over 30.   You need to lose at least 50 lbs before I would operate on you. Surgery is not a treatment of obesity.
