WORTH IT$8,600
9 weeks - updating from sunny Puerto Vallarta! I'm happy to report that I have been living in two bikinis and that my tankini has yet to leave the suitcase! ;)
Yesterday I mentioned to my husband that I wished that my back matched my front. He just looked at me and sighed..I know, I know. I need to learn some self love and get back to the weight room.
On my way down I had a day to shop in Vancouver, $500.00 later in shirts and sweaters for work! I only have four shirts pre-tummy tuck that don't look ridiculous on me.
I will post new pictures when I get home next week. It's sure nice to not yell at my husband "boobs up only!" when he takes a picture of me!!! ;)

Hello everyone! Thank-you readers! One of you contacted me to let me know that there was an inappropriate message posted on my page and then it went to her e-mail.
I have no idea what happened...I've contacted Real Self to find out what's going on. I'm the only one with my password for my profile and I did not post anything like that! It's gone now so I don't even know what it said....if I don't get an explanation I will cancel this profile :(
Ps. Tummy is good, still dealing with swelling though, seven weeks today!

I saw that message too, hg. It was just some moron thinking lewd and inappropriate comments are funny. It came up in my email as a comment on your profile, so nothing to do with your account.

Six and a half weeks - life without binders/...
hg.girlAugust 12, 2011
Six and a half weeks - life without binders/ garments! I was crazy, happy to reach this point and ditch these items only to put them back on!
Daytime is fine, I am just using a tight tank which seems to be working. Wearing normal pants is great, my garment left with me with awful underwear lines so I lived in long shirts! I'm still the same size, only there's room in the waist and I no longer have a muffin top!
I tried to sleep without my binder and only lasted one night, it's back on for now. I find that my stomach is super tender now and its hard to get used to the numbness. My upper thighs and the area between my belly button and incision are numb. I don't know if that's going to come back or if I will just have to learn to get used to it. My incision is doing really well, I am still massaging my tummy every day.
Funny thing, I realized the other day that I have hips now! I never noticed them before as I was obsessed with my stomach...and I kinda like them! Is this me? Someone who is actually liking how they look! Wow. ;)
Off to Mexico in 11 days, I will be sure to take pics in my bikini!

I'm doing great, still getting used to the new body. Have to buy all new shirts! My old ones were meant to hide the tummy and look funny on me now. How are you?

So glad to hear you are back to wearing your binder :) Wear it as long as you can. Wonderful that you are feeling good about yourself and happy with your results considering all that you have gone through recently..... always good to hear !!! Wow, Mexico ..... awesome, one of the places to visit on my bucket list. You are looking stunning !!

You really look great! I know what you mean about the pantie lines from certain garments, holy crap they can't have improved that in all these years? I don't have buns of steel so that thing cut into me in a not very flattering way haha. They make some now that are high waisted and like boyshot length instead of the ones that go nearly to the knees. I like anything that is supportive of the area above my belly button but there's not alot that does that. Have a wonderful trip and enjoy yourself...we def want bikini pics!!!
