TT Surgery -6/11/2012 - I Am on the FLATSIDE! Loving it!- N. Virginia , VA

I am officially 3 months post op...Not much has changed except I feel ALMOST completely healed (still numb in the belly area) I no longer where my CG and although I still swell up I feel a lot better (comfortable ) then I felt 6 weeks ago. Time is definately the healer on this thing. Funny part is I still gravitate towards clothes that I'd normally purchase to hide the pouch BUT it isn't even there any more. Still getting used to this thing....So Glad I did it and So Glad its over with. I have lost a total of 22 lbs and I am keeping it off thru diet and a lot of water intake (kids are in various activities right now that keep me OUT of the GYM) I am hoping to get back in the GYM in the next 2 weeks or so. Hope all is well with everyone!

Sooooo...I am 8 weeks post op as of 8/6/2012.. All I can say is I am still in shock and my head is still a lil big ...thanx to my new look. I didn’t get any lipo so don’t get me wrong I am not boasting a six pack...BUT I must say dropping from a pants size of 16 to 14 (and sometimes 14s are too big) and the compliments I get are to blame. Also the fact that I can now where my 13 year olds size large shirts instead of them 1X or 2X I used to wear to hide that bear belly I had. I DO NOT REGRET having this surgery at all ---although I am no poster child for the reality of this surgery (I certainly kind of glided right through the after surgery issues).
I am still numb in the stomach area and I have had 2 lymphatic massages at massage envy. My boyfriend thinks I pull the surgery sympathy card every time he wants me to do something that engages my stomach muscles (like dance) and I am reluctant, I can dance but not the kind of dancing he looking for LOL. I guess I look so good that there is no sign that I am still healing from this major surgery,. It is all good though because I know in the next 6 months (hopefully) I will be right back at (ab WORK). I am still taking it easy but I must SAY LIFE IS GOOD!
