Athletic Mom of Young Kids - Updated Info about The TT Hole

Hello. I am so excited for you. I know this time is usually the most difficult, so try to get someone to tell you a decent joke. Not a great one, cause laughing can be uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I just can't think of any right now.

I had similar swelling around my thighs and hips a couple of days after surgery where it felt like my skin would split. I adjusted my binder more often, and once I started moving more, the swelling went down significantly. I hope this helps. I hope everything else is going smooth.

Hi there. I was directed to your blog a couple of days ago, and I also read the ones you recommended. Thank you so much. I am still worried, but it helps to know that others have gone through this, and are on the mend. You are right. There doesn't seem to be any correlation between drains and no drains. I'm definitely going to ask plenty of questions tomorrow at the doctor. Funny about the two piece. I've always been so concerned about my shape that I've never worn one. I wonder if I will have guts to start now. Thank you so much.

Oh no. I've always had a fat and now fat and muscular booty and thighs. I wanted the doc to sculpt them, but she didn't cause she wanted to keep my procedure to 5 hours, and she didn't think I'd see much benefit...yet. I swear she just wanted me to keep me as a repeat customer. Now when I sit, my lower butt and thighs spread and stop where my flanks were lipo-ed. I wonder if jeans will fit.

I do play hockey...poorly. Learned to skate and play at 26. Took off a few years to have and nurse the kids. It is so much fun. I'm on a women's beginner league. We even have a 70 year old on the team. Hope that will be me someday.

Great news that you are going through with this. I was also more scared about the tummy tuck part. I'm now 12 days post op, and moving better than I had imagined. I occasionally take Tylenol, but otherwise use no pain meds. I'll start driving tomorrow. The only issue I have was caused by not getting drains. Review drainage with your doctor. I hope this helps. Good luck.

You look fabulous! I love what you did with your booty. And I love your attitude during recovery. From the tone of your posts, it almost seems like you can run already. Keep up the good work.
