I think if you maintain a good and healthy eating lifestyle after you TT and start exercising on a regular basis when it's recommended by your PS, you should be able to see changes-don't be too hard on yourself though. You are still healing
You should follow your surgeon's instructions regarding post-surgery care. It is important to do this so that your recovery is not compromised. You should be eating a healthy well-balanced diet and resume exercising after about 3-4 weeks, with strength training and core exercises after about 6 weeks.
If you haven't had your surgery yet, I highly recommend that you get to your goal weight prior surgery to get the best result. If you have had surgery, you should wait until 4 to 6 weeks before trying to diet. Your body needs good nutrition for healing. Be sure to eat a healthy diet and gradually cut back on calories. At 6 weeks you can start exercising, that and a proper diet is your best bet.
It's best to lose the weight prior to surgery to ensure more predictable and lasting results. Good nutrition is important for the healing process following surgery, but some calorie restriction is Ok as long as you maintain a balanced diet. It's best to consult a nutritionist to ensure the approprate regimen to obtain your weight loss goals without compromising your healing.
You should be eating a healthy diet after your surgery, including plenty of fruits and vegetables and restrict empty calories. That being said, you should not restrict your caloric intake by more than a maintance amount for the first month after surgery to assure wound healing. After approx 4 weeks, you can begin restricting calories for weight loss. Good luck!
You should be fairly well healed before dieting even though it is only 5 - 10 pounds. My recommendation would be for you to wait until around 8 weeks before consciously attempting to lose weight. Your body needs the calories and nutrients including protein to heal after surgery. By restricting your intake of essential nutrition, you increase the risk of problems, particularly wound healing ones.
Reach your optimal weight before having surgery. Then maintain that weight with a well-balanced diet. If desired, enlist the help of a nutritionist.
You need adequate calories after tummy tuck, but quality is the key and calorie restriction and weight loss should not be a problem after tummy tuck if you take in adequate nutrients and vitamins. Dieting with a weight loss goal can be started after surgery, though you might want to consider professional help to guide you. On-line groups and community college programs are places to start. Best of luck, peterejohnsonmd
If fully healed/recovered than OK with me. But you should always check with your chosen surgeon. From MIAMI
Do not start dieting for at lease two months after your surgery. In order to properly heal you need adequate calories and good nutrition.
While it depends on your individual comfort level, there is no waiting period between surgery and your return to stilletos. The sooner you can go back to the things that make you feel like yourself again the quicker you'll feel like the journey was worth it! Talk to your...
After a tummy tuck, it's generally recommended to avoid wearing high heels until you're fully recovered. This is because high heels can affect your posture and the way you walk, which might strain your abdomen and potentially hinder your healing process. Most plastic surgeons recommend waiting...
5 weeks out and you are massaging the scar and you hear a POP. One POP and no residual pain or deformity. You messed up nothing. It was, as you said, probably a stitch that popped. It's not the first time that that has happened. There are probably a hundred...
