Panniculectomy, an extended abdominoplasty and breast lift. Are these results normal? (Photo)

disappointed in texas
After losing 140lbs with lap-band, I had a panniculectomy, an extended abdominoplasty and breast lift in Feb. 2015. After surgery I have these little fat pouches hanging on the front side of my stomach hanging, my stomach splits in the middle, skin still a little lose and I have a large FUPA. I wore my abdominal wrap as instructed. I was told these things were due to swelling and it was normal, but it will be a year next month. only weigh change + or – 5lbs. Are these results normal?
