I'm 24 years old, I had excess skin after significant weight loss. I'm 12 days out from having a tummy tuck without lipo or muscle repair. I've been off my pain meds for about a week now and my energy level is almost back to normal! The only slow part about my recovery has been getting my drains out. I've been feeling so great I forgot to take it easy! Hopefully they'll be out in the next few days though. When is the soonest I can get back to long distance running/aerobic/strength training?
