50 Year Old Getting Tummy Tuck and Lipo to Get Rid of Loose Skin After Having a Set of Twins - Richmond, VA

I am feeling so great at 8 weeks. I can pull myself up from a flat position! Yahoo! finally! I have been to the gym almost everyday. I can do some ab work, planks crunches ect. I just take it a little slower and not over do it. I don't have hardly any swelling!! I think because I know my limits and what gets me swelling. I do have to watch the salt. If I over do it. Then I swell. My scar is fading some not so red. I feel great and I am so happy about my results. I go back to the Doctor next week. I treat my scar with coco butter and scar guard and sometimes coconut oil. It is looking so goo. My only regrets is that I didn't do this sooner.!

Today I am 7 weeks post op. Last week was my best week. I went to the gym everyday and I had min. swelling. This week I am starting off going to the gym and getting back into my pre surgery routine. With the exception of not much ab work. I am so happy that the swelling in min. My scar is red but looking good. I am still treating it with Palmers vit E oil and some coco butter and the med I bought at my ps office. I also put on my silicone sheets from time to time. I am not wearing any compression for the most part. I am not even wearing spanks for the most part. If I get more than min swelling I may put on the spanks or cg to get the swelling down. I have a few little tinges in my lower abs and numbness is still in my abs below my bb. I am overall happy with my surgery. I love my flat tummy and bb. I still would like to go down a size and loose a few more inches. Happy Girl. I may add pictures again but for the most part not much has changed since the last pics. I go back to the ps April 5th. Happy Healing Everyone!

I started back to the gym full time this week. Monday I did a cycle class and body pump Tuesday a step class and Today I did cycle and body pump again. I feel great. I get a little swelling at the end of the day and a few pains but for the most part I am really feeling great! I feel tired but I just try to go to bed a little earlier. My scar is still red but looking better every week. So glad I had this done. I am suppose to wait 8 weeks before I do ab work. I def. cant do much ab work. So I am going to wait on that.
