  • Posted to 5 month post op appointment...added some pics of BA issues on 14 May 2013

    I completely understand what you're going through! I too am having the exact same problem. Dr. Lista didn't do lipo on me and I look fairly similar to pre-tummy tuck. :( I've gained 4 pounds but there's no way that the swelling I have in my lower belly is from the 4 pounds I gained. I too am very disappointed in my results.

    I'm still swollen but not nearly as bad as early on. When I wake up in the morning I'm flatter then I am by mid morning. The PS said this is normal and can continue for 6 mths to 1 year! Yikes! I really think I should've had a bit of lipo in my upper abs and just a little in my lower. Hang in there. The swelling does get better. It's just hard seeing that some fellow TT's don't have the swelling like the rest of us. We all heal differently so I'm holding onto that right now.

    Me too! I'm trying to stay away from salt & pop (soda). I'm finding massaging my stomach pretty aggressively helps a bit too. I just went to a used clothing store and bought size 11 dress pants and jeans b/c I go back to work on the 7th and my size 6's don't fit :( My hubby keeps telling me I'd make a lousy doctor .... I have no patience :)

    Thanks you're very kind! I'll ask at my next appt, which is on Fri Dec 28. Secretly I hope they tell me "my my Ms. Violet Beauregard down to the juicer with you"

    Thanks! I hadn't had pop ...soda for the Americans :) in 1.5 weeks and now I've had 2 in the last 4 days. I'm putting the soda to the side and just water or tea for 1 week. Then I'll see how I'm doing.
