I had the tummy tuck because I was 196Ibs when I pregnant with my daughter, I never weighed more than 120Ibs before pregnancy. I worked out every day, I ran, did weights the whole thing and yet I could never get rid of that loose piece of skin on my lower stomach.I am thrilled with the results, although I am not sure if my scar could have been a little lower. The breast implants were a bonus and I am still trying to adjust to those as they have not taken the complete shape yet. My only issue right now is swelling of my hips and I am not sure if that is normal.

I am now 8 weeks in to my tummy tuck and breast implants and I am over all pleased with the results. I am just concerned about swelling on my hips, is that normal? I have a scar from hip to hip but did not have any muscle work done. I also seem to have a very noisy tummy now, the growling happens whether I am hungry or not and it is so loud.
