    Im sorry to hear you are not happy with your results. I am also having a similar experience. I am about 10 weeks po. At around 6 weeks po, I was seeing awesome results and pretty happy. It was short lived, by about 8 weeks, my upper abdomen starting bulging out farther than before I had surgery. I questioned my doc, he said the same thing....that I needed to watch my diet, and that I was gaining weight. What??? I was not overweight before had, and haven't been told I needed to loose weight....ever. I am wearing the same size in everything than before I had weight, but this week, my lower abdomen started 'falling' out again, just like before i had surgery. My doctor has been unhelpful, telling me it is 'normal' for this, 'normal' for that, whenever I had a question. For me, none of this is normal. I picked a doctor in an affluent area, thinking he would really be professional. Instead, he treats me like everything that has happened is normal....even the hole I had in my incision that has just healed this week. For me, I am also so disappointed. I have saved for this surgery my entire adult life.....and to go through the pain and healing process, to not be happy with the result is awful. I feel like an idiot, dont' even want to bring anything up with my doctor....and cannot afford to have this redone! I hope you get the answers and results you are looking for!!!

    Me too! I haven't noticed having big hips before, but I'm almost six weeks PO and my hips look huge! I'm hoping it is from swelling.....,but who swells in the hips after TT? I haven't been overheating, but haven't returned to my regular exercise yet. I have a huge hole in my incision. Doctor says it could take up to 3 months to heal, packing daily, 2 times. Very gross...and I was almost excited about my results. Now I feel depressed and I look and am wider than before surgery. Feeling so bummed.

    We are at about the same point. I am 2 weeks, 1 day, and the most swollen I have been started yesterday, and is back again today:( I was feeling really good and full of energy, then this new, annoying, and ugly swelling began.
