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.

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 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?
December 23, 2012
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!!
