Finally! I Have Needed a Tummy Tuck Since I Was 16 - Dallas, TX

I'm past 9 wks post op. Can't believe it! One day blurs into the next... I'm feeling great, still dealing with pretty severe swelling by late in the day, and then wake up miraculously skinny and flat. Can't wait till I stay that way. Still numb in the center of my stomach, but not having any real pain, plus I'm able to pick up my 25 lb kid again. Still can't believe that I went through with it and it's all over, and I'm back to my normal life. So happy!

6 wks post op! I can't believe it's here already! I feel like I'm pretty much back to normal, other than the numbness in my belly and still some slight soreness on my lipo sights. All of this was SO worth it. Everyone keeps asking me how I lost so much weight in such a short amount of time ;) Just this week I've been able to switch to spanx and throw away the binder YAY!!! One big bummer still is the swelling, but that will go away all in good time.

2 days away from 5 wks post op! WOW! I can't believe how much better I feel and am getting around. I'm back to work full time, which does still wear me out more than it did before, but I'm working through it. Incision looks good, and the spot where the stitches came out looks like it's finally closing up and healing. The middle of my stomach is still numb...feels very strange! The area on my thighs that were lipo'ed are still a little tender, but everything looks SO much better! I'm down a whole pant size, and I've lost about 8 lbs. I'm wondering when the numbness goes away?
