It's been sometime since I've updated my profile. Primary reason being I had gained weight and wasn't feeling deserving of sharing my wonderful tummy tuck with everyone. I have to say however, even with the weight gain, I loved my tummy. It was the only part of my body I still liked and was proud of. Most of the weight went to my face, arms, butt and thighs. I did gain some in the tummy area but mostly it was a small amount of spare tire.
I am in no way where I want to be now but I am working on it. I haven't been excercing consistently and plan too, I have been eating better and have dropped some weight.
Once I get to where I want to be, I will post again.
I needed to keep it real and honest on here because what's the point if we don't, right?
I'm still very happy with my tummy. I am pleased with the scar. The sides are faded more than the front. And I do still have numbness below my belly button.
Would I do it again? Absolutely!l

Oops on the ticket - your doctor did a fine job the incision is low and your tummy looks flat - happy healing

Yeah....I have a lead foot and it's such a long drive. The cop did me a favor though, only put me at five miles above speed limit :-). Thank you for the compliment! I don't feel so flat...really bloated and swollen so thank you!

Good to hear the cop gave you a beak --I know the bloat and swollen feeling very well.. Sigh ....hang in there.. we're both still early in our recoveries :-)

I think you look fabulous! Don't worry your thighs are probably swollen, mine are, butt too, seriously, mine were big before! I'm not sweating it though, I know when I get to working out I will be fine, and so will you! July we fear you not, bring it on!

And I got a speeding ticket :-(
Back from my 4 week post op appt. It went well, he says my scar looks nice. We're both pleased I haven't had any real issues post surgery. He gave me the silicon tape and some cream for the bob and lipo areas. And won't see him til July! Frightening.... Anyway, no ab workouts for four weeks. Cardio is all he suggests and some arm weights if I like. He said I can be done with the garment in two weeks! Yay! And it's up to me if I want to wear spanx.
I haven't really updated my profile lately cus going back to work has left me exhausted at the end of the day. I will try though.
All I can really think of to say was February 15 I had an emotional break down. I pushed myself physically for 2 days prior and on the 15th I hurt bad. Felt like I took 5 steps backwards. I cried like a baby. I didn't think I was ever going to return to normal and it's was hard.
Today, I'm feeling so much better. I've taken it slow and easy and feel everyday I'm stronger and that much closer to normalcy. Baby steps and listen to your body.
I'm bummed I haven't lost weight. Shame on me though cus I haven't been eating clean. I'm over it! When I see Dr. Kaufman in July I want to look awesome so I am going to start paying closer attention to what I eat and start increasing the cardio.
I'll try to update weekly with photos.
