Tummy Tuck: Stories

Your welcome :)

Thank you :)

Thank you :)

Yes I would !! I am still swelling too :( After work especially...But would do it again!! The clothes that I bought are starting to get big :) I am glad that I only bought 2 pairs of jeans & 3 t shirts. You look great too!! I have a dog ear on my left side, but don't know what I want to do yet? Did you have to take time off of work for that?

When I started shopping. I only bought a few pair of jeans and shirts too. It was only about a month before I went down another size. Went shopping for more jeans. Lol. They are starting to get a little big. Well I decided to just get some yoga pants for everyday. And wear the jeans on outings! The yoga pants feel awesome! Comfortable. I don't know if I'll ever wear jean again. Lol. Just joking. The yoga pants are so adjustable. You can roll the waist where you want. Anyway about the dog Ears. You don't need to take but maybe one day off. And that would be the day that you have the procedure done. With me it was done in his office. I was not put to sleep. He just did a local, numbed me up. Fixed all 3 areas. He just said to not exercise for a week. So it's just a matter of not being to strenuous. You asked if I took time from work. I don't work. Or at least don't earn a paycheck! Lol. If you have a dog ear. And your anything like me. It will bother you til it is fixed. I tried to ignore it. But knew I would regret it if I didn't get it fixed. I'm very pleased with the results. And love my new bb. Let me know what you decided. Have a great day!!!!

Yes, I can't wait to shop!! I tried on all my jeans and they all are big & have a huge gap where the pannus used to be :( UGH.... I am so glad that it is gone forever!! I want to start exercising, but he didn't say when I could... I have an elliptical machine and want to get on it asap. As for work, I do miss it & have gotten very lazy, which isn't like me at all.... You look great & good luck with your revision surgery, keep me posted! :)

Have fun shopping! Is it just great you have to get rid of your old jeans! I filled several black bags with clothing that was now to big. I donateted to GoodWill. Which was my ps suggestion. He said to me when I told him I had to get all new clothing that the best thing I could do is donate to help someone out that could use my old clothing. So I did, and it does make me feel good. I have been meaning to ask you since our old tummys were so much alike. Just wondering if you feel the same as me or if I'm just nuts lol. That old pannus we used to have made me miserable as it did you. With all the nasty yeast infections and cracking and bleeding. It was a nightmare on a daily basis. So, how much do you miss that pannus? lol It still blows me away to feel my tummy and it is gone! To take a shower and not have to dry that old flabby skin like it is a pet! Any way how much do you miss it?!? lol I still wake up sometimes and think it was a dream. But it's not. Awesome thing that it is gone. My PS told me at about week 4 I could start exercising again as long as I wore my cg during any exercise. I did for a couple weeks and think it really helped getting back into the grove. Now I am back to my regular exercising routine and it is so much easier than it was before my tt. I will make a post after my surgery on the 12th.

I to think that it is a dream :) My 1st shower when I reached down to lift it up to wash under it, and realized it was gone forever I cried :( My husband was like , what's wrong? I said, OMG my fat stomach is gone!! I can see all the way too the floor & my feet.. LOL I am bagging up my clothes on Monday and giving them to goodwiil too :) I never want to fit into those again!! Please stay in touch, I hope all goes well for you on the 12th :)

That's so funny about being able to see all the way to the floor, and feet. I had not seen the tops of my legs or pubic area in years from the looking down view either. My husband wanted to know why I gave all my larger clothes away, just in case he said, I may need them again. lol..... that aint happening! We (all of us tt ladies) worked to hard and went thru to much to ever get back in that shape again.

Thank you, But I am not going back to work till the 11th :( Going crazy being home!!!
