Well, I am just over six months post op. Still very numb and I cannot stand that. I am back to all physical things. I really dont like my tummy tuck right now b/c I am deployed to the middle east and cant eat right b/c they dont provide us healthy choices, at least not to my standards and I eat a certain way. But I am still swollen and numb and it just doesnt look like I'd hoped. I still have loose skin since she cut only 2 oz of skin. So, Im not even calling it a tummy tuck anymore Im calling it abdominal repair. I just cant see my bottom abs so nothing has changed yet. the only difference is my scar. Its not a bad scar but its there and so is everything else.

I also still hate my belly button it looks weird and has so much space tht is covered and stinks like [RS bleep] no matter what
It didnt close up right? Because thats when it needs to be opened. What do you mean by space? Is the wound still open?

I am now 12 1/2 weeks post op! Yay and I started working abs now (ahh finally) and am running daily, on the stair stepper and able to stretch like i used to. I am pretty clear to do anything now but feel uncomfortable doing fast jumping type exercises like burpees and 8 counts. My pushups and pullups are drastically down in number. Pretty embarassing bc we do them a lot at work and everyone kinda looks at me funny bc I cant keep up. No worries.. In a couple weeks I'll be the best again! I have also gone back to wearin my vest and all that so thats about 45 lbs of gear and I will be deploying soon as well so hopefully no problems arise while I am overseas. And my boobs will be getting done the minute i get back ohh yeah!!
Overall I am still undecided if i am happy with the tt. I definetly still dont like my belly button and for a week straight I had a small piece of cartlidge just beneath my incision, it was a very small bump and if it moved to the right angle hurt like bs. It IS still there but stopped hurting. I didnt have time to go to my doc but my 12 week post op is tomorrow so I will show her then. I know my body is just trying to get rid of it anyway. I will also ask her about my belly button. I'll post pics soon and then I dont plan to post again until 1 year post op and/ or for my breast augmentation review.

I think your belly button looks great, unless it just looks better in pictures. I think it looks better now then the pre op pictures, though its kind of hard to tell with the markings. Glad to hear everything is going well!
You look amazing! I think your belly button looks really good. Maybe a natural BB is better. I love my new BB - much better than the squishy one from before, but I do kind of worry that people will notice that is not natural. And my PS is amazing.
You look awesome!!!!
You look great, BB too! I enjoyed reading about your working out post-op. It's good to hear about you doing pull ups and burpees. I can't wait to get back to my HIIT workouts but looks like it will be a while. I can start running again (jogging) and some easy ab work at 6 weeks which is in a few days. Can't wait! Best to you while on deployment.
Hi there! We look very similar pre-op. I'm having my surgery on Thursday! Just wanted to see how you were doing now?
sorry just noticed your message. Hope everything went well with your surgery ;-)
I'm doing good beside a little disappointed with my results bc i think my PS could've removed a bit more. when i sit or bend over i still have excess skins ;-(
next month i will be 6months PO and will see my PS for a follow-up i hope he will agree to do a revision for me.
btw, your results is amazing!! when u bend over u look really tight and u are so lucky...no stretch marks!!
