I am not a size 2 and actually haven't moved in size but things fit me completely differently!!! 20lbs down since day of surgery!! STILL worth it!!! Now I wanna get moving to improve myself even more!!

Turned the corner I feel. Finally on the road to recovery. Holes are all closing up and drainage is close to nothing from only one hole. So as soon as they are all healed up I think the fun will begin. IE shopping and sexy undies. Woot woot.

Gracia check my measurement to yours. You will find them further up in my blog. My before measurements. But I checked out your pictures and I think you would be fine to have it done now. My dr said that if your belly is squishy which means more flabby skin then I am a better candidate. If its more hard then my results may not have been as good. And I only know this because my mom went in with me and she has a harder stomach. He will do the surgery for here as he did me with no problem but he tells all of his patients he wants them to be at a steady weight. Then have surgery. If you are steady with your weight then I would say go for it. The change will be amazing. If you saw Dr Saunders, who did my surgery, I know he would do it for you. He is a GREAT dr. Super encouraging. His staff not the friendliest obviously but yes very happy with him and his surgery. Let me know if you have anymore questions

Alright so I have been wanting to do my measurements but haven't thought to do them in the morning. I was up extra early this morning much to my dismay and decided to take them. Although I am ecstatic with the difference I know I am still swollen. And I feel more swollen this morning then I have other mornings. So here it is...

Left Thigh: 27.5"

Right Thigh: 27"

Under Boobs: 38"

Rib cage: 37.5"

Waist right @ belly button: 41"

Belly @ where bump used to be approx 1.5" above belly button: 39.5"

Legs/thighs together at thickest part: 45.5"

Butt around to pubic area: 46.5"

Hips where apron was: 46.5"

Grand Total: 337.5 "

Difference of 35 inches!!!!

I'll take it..... For now ;-)

I'll get some pdated pics soon!!

TT- I measured a few weeks after surgery and it was the same and I was like how the heck can it be the same? I was ticked so I put the tape away and am letting the swelling go down a bit! At least you saw a loss in inches, 35 inches is a lot! It will move more, my PS said I may not see the final outcome for 6 months or so, I am like good grief! You are looking so good, it is vast improvement for us, no matter what our scales or tapes say! We know we look good!

I read your entire journey , I am scheduled for lipoabdominplasty on the 20th of april, we are of similiar weight, i was just wondering if you had a traditional tummy tuck or the Avelar tuck??
User Avatar
April 10, 2012
I believe I had the traditional tummy tuck. Sliced from hip to hip and lipo in my sides above my butt and an added bonus of my outer thighs!!
