Post-pregnancy Diastasis Recti and Overweight?

Optimizing your weight prior to a tummy tuck is always a good strategy. However, a pitfall that you should avoid is undergoing a crash diet prior to the surgery that is not sustainable after the procedure is performed. It is important to lose the pounds but be sure you are at a stable weight to assure the best long term results following surgery. You should consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to evaluate your individual situation and guide you in planning for your tummy tuck.

Although you may find it difficult to get back to your "fighting weight" after a child, the best thing to do is to work hard so the end result will be the best. The diastasis repair is always better when the intrabdominal fat content is at the lowest point. Then it can be "cinched " tight to recreate your  curves and contours. This added tightening can  give you a sense of early satiety as in a gastric sapling procedure and often contributes to your losing those last few pounds.  The surgery is also safer (less complications) at a lower weight.
