You look awesome! And I'll bet you are loving wearing a swim suit this summer! :-)

Patty, I thought I would be so anxious to get my bikini on, but not so much! In my mind, I'm still self conscious!!!!! Maybe once I start getting out I'll get over it. My swelling has really just started going away.

This Wednesday will be 8 weeks since I had my surgery. I can't believe this time has passed....it's such a distant memory now. The first week was a complete blur. I'm not wearing compression anymore. I stopped at 6 weeks. The swelling really started subsiding when I stopped wearing the compression. Coincidence? I'm moving around and doing almost everything as before. I still feel some tightness and pulling at times. If I've had a very active day I still have some nighttime swelling too, but by morning it's gone. Overall I'm very, very happy with my results. I have never been someone to work out, but I think that I will start, now that I have something great to work with :) I'm really amazed at how much smaller my waist. It's just crazy to me....

I am now 10 days post op from a tummy tuck and breast lift and the compression wear is driving me NUTZ! I'm not comfortable in the original binder the doc gave me because it hits my hip bones and the incision goes over them. And my spanks make me feel like I'm stuck bent over. Any advice on when to wear the binder belt and when to wear spanks and how long did you keep them on for? I'm afraid to not wear anything for too long, but after having them on all day I can't wait to get them off!! Please any advice.

I picked up something in the lingerie section at target it is a one piece pull on no seams and breast area is open. It was the most comfortable but make sure you purchase one that isn't too loose.They are like the Spanx brand they are called Assets .
The open bust thigh mid-thigh....http://www.target.com/p/assets-by-sara-blakely-a-spanx-brand-women-s-remarkable-results-open-bust-mid-thigh/-/A-15244575.
Good luck happy healing!
