Hello August Tuckers! Yes a year gone by and it's been terrific! I love my tummy tuck! Clothes fit better, I don't mind looking at my belly in the mirror, and I think I look pretty awesome in lingerie! Heheh! Hubby is very happy too! We both think it was money well spent! I haven't gained any weight over where I was at the time of the surgery but haven't done well losing weight either. Sometimes I wonder if I would consider any other procedures but at the moment I am just happy where I am!!

5. Nutrition is very important
In my area, a fair number of my smart, professional women patients don’t sit down to eat regular meals. Many of us also diet constantly. Nutritional habits that may work to maintain you when you are healthy can become a huge stress when you have a surgical wound to heal. You have to eat well. You should have protein with every meal, at least two eggs or four egg whites, two pieces of citrus fruit per day (whole fruit, not juice) and then whatever else you want. It is not healthy to try to lose weight during this time. You must eat well to heal well.
