8 weeks post TT - still really swollen?
By helenes transformation on 09 Jun 2011
Scheduled for July 6th! 8 weeks later I am going to the beach, should I expect to still be crazy swollen?



Everyone is different & you may be fine, especially since you are going to the beach in September, when it is not as hot. I am 9 weeks post op & still swell, but, I notice it was at its worse 7 weeks post op & also in extreme heat. Mine seems not nearly as bad at 9 weeks post op, but I still swell. Good luck to you!
Don't stress yourself about the swelling. It will be what it will and you can't change it or stop it.
I say just go to the beach relax and enjoy it. If you do have a little swelling oh well...it will pass so just enjoy your vacation.
Having some swelling beats having a tummy that hangs:)
Oh yeah!!
