6 weeks PO! - North Carolina

Thanks for updating! I had my TT almost a year ago. I lost 140 lbs and the skin apron needed to go. I had great results with my TT. I always wanted to get my breasts done but my tummy bothered me the most. At my 9 mo. TT check-up, I decided to ask about my breasts. He said I would need a lift ... just around the nipple on one and the full lift scar on the other. He felt I would have great results. So after researching, etc. I decided to go for it. Surgery is scheduled for 11/19. Can't wait!

You're right about the TT pages ... lots more updates there than here on the BL pages. So thanks for updating. Glad to hear it's nothing like TT recovery. When I was walking hunched over for 2 weeks I thought, "What the heck did I do." LOL!

Good luck! I had gastric bypass in 2006 and lost 140 lbs. I had my TT Oct. 2011 and I'm so thankful I did it. Makes me wonder why I waited so long. I'm now thinking about the breast lift and augmentation. Of course I'd like something done to my inner thighs as well but I heard that's a tough recovery. Looking forward to hearing about your progress!

Hi NewMe! Glad to hear things are going well. We are almost the exact same weight. I got up to 162 during the holiday's and now I'm back down to 158. I'm also hoping to get to 140. I started walking and a little jogging but it feels weird. So now I'm going to try and jog with the CG on and see if that helps. Sis-in-law wants to run a 5k at the end of March but I'm not sure if that's enough time for me. I'm not really a runner and even though I'm cleared for exercise, I'm trying to take it slow.

How come they gave you an injection in the BB? Mine still is swollen. It's nice and round but it's kind of closed. I think it's fine but who knows. What does the ear plug do?

I've been using BioOil on my scar and I think it's helping. It's still pretty red but it's flat and I think once the redness reduces, it's going to look fine. Overall I'm pretty happy. I even went clothes shopping. My tummy looked great in new clothes, but I think I gained in my hips and butt. ;-)

Anyway, glad to hear all is well!

Good luck tomorrow!! Sending thoughts and prayers your way!

Good luck tomorrow!
