whoa baby...i might have to take you out on a date! LOL your belly looks PHENOMENAL!
Woooo! You need a date?! *wink, wink
Looking good!
Thanks Ms. Kimmers!
Hi Jessiest, Can you tell me your doctors name. I am looking into getting this done and I am in your area.
I'm so happy for you that you finally got to get your TT. All the best as you continue to heal. You are looking awesome!!! :-)
I hate my binder too, it rides up,never fits correctly, I don't feel like it's doing a damn thing. Getting drain out today so I can change my binder.
Wow. Thanks for sharing your story & amazing photos. I, too, became pregnant @ 14 & that wreaked havoc on my body. I'm in Palm Harbor & recently got abdomen/hip lipo & will be getting a FTT in 6 mo. to a year. Your post here is preparing me greatly! While I only got lipo, I feel you on the itching. It's driving me nuts (I'm 12 days post-op) & my skin feels like a nightmare underneath, lol. I was NOT prepared for the lumps, bumps & "ropes"! Anyways...your pics are incredible! You look phenomenal!
Jessie & I met on here and are now friends based off of our stories Devin. How do you feel now that you've gone longer? How'd you do during the holidays? Good luck with your FTT, I love my new tummy, it's waaaay better than before.
Hi there! That's really awesome. The only real friends I have are toddlers, lol. I'm a SAHM & don't get out much. I just updated my photos & feel GREAT. It's amazing when you fix the things that bother you. I mean, I still am getting a FTT, but...feel so much better. My clothes fit better (& I went down a size). I did pretty well over the holidays. My MIL made terrible food, lmao, so I didn't eat much. Thanks for the luck, hopefully I can get it within the new year. I saw your pics, you look UH-MAY-ZING! I'm in Palm Harbor, where are you located?
Thanks! I am not far from u, I am considered to be in Town & Country, but if I go 5 minutes I'm in Oldsmar or Westchase. I am a SAHM too Jessie & I see each other every day almost at the Y now. Do you have a babysitter? Tomorrow we are having ladies movie night, you are welcome to join us or perhaps sometime during the week.
Wow! I did not see this post... I still get my emails. Oops...
Well thanks! Glad you are excited for your tummy tuck.
It's probably the kindest thing I ever did for myself. Truth.
I did not realize you got itchy from lipo. I was looking into something (Pammy can correct me) like cool dissolve lipo procedure. Right now I am trying to hustle, hustle in the gym!

How come nobody here in the realself forums...
How come nobody here in the realself forums mentioned the awful itching when you are healing? It started at about a week and a half and has been pretty consistently itchy up till today which is 3 weeks and 2 days since the day of my tt surgery.

you are looking awesome! your PS did a great job! dont worry about the flab left, with diet and exercise you will be fine... and you look great now:)
I am definitely ready to go back to the gym.
Great results and to think that it is only going to get better! But, ladies, for real... is there anything to control the itching? I'll be there soon and want to be prepared. :)
I am sitting here itching like crazy!!!! I have tried claritin and that didn't work. "Airing" things out helps a tad. Jessiest has said benadryl and/or nausea meds may help. I am going to buy benadryl tomorrow. I would say out of everything, for me, in this healing experience, I'd take the pain any day, this itching does drive me mad...BUT it's sooooo worth it!
I applied a good amount of 1% hydrocortisone cream and that seemed to take care of it.
Well, Booka and Jessiest at least just rub for now... Those amazing beach-ready bodies are all worth it. Now, tell me how is the pain at this stage?
I put some cortisone around the incision (making sure not to touch the incision of course) and it does feel a LOT better right now. As far as pain, I have none. I am 21 days today. I have slight discomfort when I sneeze, but nothing like the first 2 weeks. I had to avoid sneezing and coughing at all costs. I have stopped taking pain meds at about 5 days PO. I did have 1 day that I ate a tad too much and sat up too long and I took 1 vicodin, but that's about it. I say move as much as you can to build your tolerance and strength, but don't over do it. Good luck to you, ask as many questions as you want!
only pat pat pat LOL
LOL
There is a big difference between this set of pics and the last. I think we don't see the dramatic progress when it's our own body, but I can tell you, YOU LOOK GREAT! AND, you'll only continue to get smaller over the next few months.
