WORTH IT$8,500
Had my 3 month post op appt Friday (a week early bc dr is going on vacation) and they did measurements and I was ecstatic because I lost nearly 15 inches! Holy cow! Here are the losses:
Upper abdomen: 4.75 inches
Waist: 5 inches
Lower abdomen: 5 inches
By no means do I have a model figure but I've gotta tell you this surgery has exceeded my expectations in nearly every way! I was also cleared to exercise after one more week. I'll post my 3 month pic as soon as I have a chance to get on the PC... Really wish we could post them from iPhone/iPad :)

I was wondering if you also had lipo? Your hips look great.
July 5, 2013
Hi, no I didn't have any lipo, I was super worried going into the surgery that my dr wasn't recommending lipo but I was pleased with the results without...I still wonder if my hips could have used some though...because they seem huge to me lol

So today I went for a body wrap and when the lady was wrapping me she said I just have to tell you that you have an amazingly flat tummy! I simply said thank you, she was like no really I see a lot if women's bodies and you have such a nice flat tummy...I dream of having a tummy that flat. I never said how I got it, felt a little guilty about that but was so happy it wasn't just obvious and that my belly button looks so natural she didn't notice. She asked me what kind of exercises I do...I feel bad for not saying how but honestly didn't want to go into it, just wanted my wrap and relaxation. Am I horrible or what?

Sayingbye, no your not horrible, you were paying to get a service done and if you want to go and relax and not tell all your personal information that is totally your right to do that, sometimes when i have went and had massages the people giving it to me want to talk the whole time and sometimes i just want to be quiet and relax and enjoy, thats why i go to relax and enjoy ! dont worry about it for a minute.

Thanks Kathy, just felt bad for not telling her so she would know how great it was but at that moment I just wanted to relax!
July 18, 2012
Lookin good girl, your BB looks really natural too!
July 24, 2012
Thank you, yes I'm liking that my belly button isn't a dead give away :)

Tomorrow will be 2 months post op & to celebrate I decided to go buy a new bathing suit today. I picked up two and I'm not sure if I'm keeping both of them or not, I'll post pics here so you girls can tell me what you think. I am planning on using these in the safety of my own pool only since I was brave and bought bikini's. lol I am feeling good overall, still swelling especially in the evenings and sore at times. Can't wait to get back to boot camp but have another month bf dr will clear me for that! Hope all my TT buddies are doing well!

@sayingbye, wow you look awesome in the bikinis, lol, "we've come a long way baby", keep them both, im sure its been a long time for you also since you last wore a two piece, so go for it, keep them both, you look wonderful !
July 11, 2012
Thanks Kathy, and yes I haven't even attempted it even in the privacy of my own pool until now - still not to point where I'd go in public in one but tons better than I was for sure :). How are you feeling these days?
July 11, 2012
sayingbye, im doing good, believe it or not im still sore at times and sometimes have stabbing pains, do you still have any of those problems? but anyway that is all to be expected, other than that im doing great and loving my tummy, cant even believe it belongs to me, im telling you, you look wonderful ! what kind of exercising are you doing? I was told to still not do any ab work. Let me know what all you are doing, thanks, xoxo Kathy
July 12, 2012
I haven't been cleared for any exercise so been keeping it to walking and did take small bicycle ride tonight but go back on 20th and hoping he will tell me when I can go back to boot camp :) ready to shed rest of these pounds :) Yes I still have periods of soreness and weird pains - its shocking to me how long it takes for those to go away, don't get me wrong they're not horrible by any means but still uncomfortable at times! I still can't sleep ony tummy long and while I can do sides, sometimes I notice even that is uncomfortable. Can't wait for day when no matter how I wanna sleep I'm comfortable! Lol
July 12, 2012
you sound exactly like me "sayingbye" i still cant sleep on my stomach and on my side is iffy also ! i have been keeping it to walking also, am going to start some arm work with light weights possibly sitting down at first as to not strain my tummy and i go back on 7/31 and will see what they say, howwever on the 31st they are getting rid of my little doggie ears so my guess i will have to watch that again for a while................oribably working out okay but now i am wondering if i will have to stop getting in the water again ! lol, my boobs seem so large now since the tummy tuck i almost want to reduce them, lol.....................
July 12, 2012
i just read my post and sound like im complaining, im not, i love my results and cant believe my huge belly is gone forever, and cant wait to do some more shopping and next thing i want to do is buy a sun dress !
July 13, 2012
I totally get it and I didn't take it that way at all, I know what you mean completely!
July 11, 2012
I love the pink!!!
July 11, 2012
Thank you estell, I still can't believe I don't have a giant roll hanging over it lol
July 11, 2012
You look fantastic!! I love the white and teal one :). I have only worn mine in my backyard pool. Will try to go public soon. You are doing great!!! That is a flat tummy!!!
July 12, 2012
Thanks Ana, not sure I'll take them public, for some reason my head still is worried I have that old tummy still but I just can't see it lol I am just starting to wrap my mind around it being gone!
July 12, 2012
Looking great! Looks like you had a blast swim suite shopping! It's the best feeling ever not seeing anything hanging over!
sayingbye, i so wish i had taken measurments, i knew some others were but for some reason i forgot to do it, but will tell you this, the jean capri pants and shorts that i wore before, i can just pull them straight down without unzipping etc, and when i walk they are starting to fall down, time for some new pants, i have bought some, mainly new tops, but time for new bottoms as they will fall off i think if i ran in them, lol..................i love it. im not a model either but have to say my results are much better than i had even anticipated........p.s. you look great in those swimsuits................kathy
