Hi there girls! I'm due to go into surgery on the 26th nov. Feeling excited and nervous. I recently went for an appointment with my surgeon and he said he would throw in fat transfer to my butt seeing a as I will be getting lipo and the fat will be there..why not put it in the right place for the right curves? Well..this was something I was not prepared for..I hope I won't regret it as I have heard it's very painful..any advise or comments? I have organised plenty of time off work. I have vitamin C, magnesium, arnica, pillows a plenty...what else? I am full of hopes and dreams of a low scar, easy recovery and hot new bod!

Hi there, I just had my tummy tuck Wednesday Nov 5th 2014. I recommend a thermometer to keep track of your temperature so it doesn't go to 100 or more. Buy lots of fruits and veggies to to eat ONLY liquids, smoothies and veggie drinks. Begin colace

Oops, didn't finish comment. Begin colace (I think that's the name of the stool softener) as soon as your stomach tolerates it. I began eating solids and with all the meds was so constipated I began cramping which was intolerable and lasted 2 days. I also tried milk of magnesia and vomited. I stopped ALL meds and began a liquid diet and oh Thank God, I finally had a bowel movement. I'm on the 4 day post op and feeling much better after gone to the bathroom and cramps subsided. Recovery is tough so hang in there. Good luck with your surgery.

Your tummy doesn't look like it protrudes much and that you just need to be tightened up! You'll have great results! Good luck!!

I'm on week 5 of doing all that you did. Make sure to get a Recliner & if you can borrow a walker, even better. Make sure you have weeks worth of good prepared. I Pre- froze items for a fruit & veggie smoothie, very helpful, since the pain Meds are constipating. Lots of pillows, for under your legs. Make sure you have a strong person to get you up to get to the bathroom, lots of fluids, so you're getting up hourly.

The op seemed to go well..I stayed overnight in hospital and let me tell you the pain of moving or coughing was excruciating !! A ripping feeling right in the core. I'm now at home,2 days post op in my rented hospital bed watching greys anatomy and feeling pretty good. I've had diareah since last night and still have drain in. I haven't been able to take a pic yet as I'm all bound up and it's too hard to get it all off..but I'll post them soon!
