1 year ago i had a full tummy tuck with a hernia repair ..but i also do not have a gallbladder to break down my foods so some foods I eat causes bloating at times . I have noticed when i wear my faja garments it helps with the bloating...but my question is is it safe to do sit-ups with out damaging the hernia repair?
