6 month post Op

Well here is a before and after. Been working out hard at the gym eating 70% healthy now for the past 4 weeks.
I did tear a muscle in my foot and could not work out hard for 3 months plus the having surgery.
Got a tattoo to cover my chest scars. Still believe Dr. Could have took more off the belly and should have done lipo to the flanks.
I'll keep trying to lose some weight.

24 days PO Going through The Motions :/

I haven't posted in a few weeks because I haven't felt all to proud of the outcome.
Chest I'm happy with under swelling has gotten much better.
All drains are out as of 4 days ago. Thank God. They suck and are annoying.

Any input on the below really helps.
So I'm 3.5 weeks out and I just noticed the wavy belly. Seroma for sure... Belly looking much bigger than day 1 PO. Going to call for an appointment with Dr. Monday.
I totally look like I have a belly Roll. Very discouraging. Plus I'm down about 3 pounds since the surgery.
I did some research and read here that your end results will look very similar to your look right after surgery... Well I hope so for my tummy.
Hoping for big improvement in the next few months.
As mentioned I like my chest out come, just not the tummy.
Dr said he didn't do muscle tighten or repair, wasn't needed. I didn't do lipo to the flanks either. Still disappointed I didn't.
I have started riding the recumbent bike at the gym about 40 mins 3 days a week. Still wearing compression garment about half the time... Just not at night when I sleep.

Hoping this gets better.

Looking forward to an improvement.

Thanks,

Steve.

11 day PO.... Not Happy.

I'm physical feeling good. Off all pain meds now for 2 days. 2 drains left in abdomen.
Just not happy at all with the tummy tuck. Look at the pics... Dr could have took a lot more. He did no lipo at the flanks.. Obviously it's needed.
I still look like I have a belly... Ya, cause I do. He wasn't aggressive enough. I don't feel any swelling at the incisions.. Really none at the flanks so that's not coming down special the left flank.. Looking more than the right. So disappointed right now. Dr did no muscle repair says it wasn't needed, not sore at all..
Chest came out OK. Under the arm is good, skin and fat taken out there. I'm still very swollen under the left arm. Right arm feels fine. I do have a lot of chest muscle so the thickness you see is from the weight lifting.
Ahhh I feel the abdominal isn't good.. Flanks suck.
Already researching lipo.... Look at cool sculpting but that looks hit and miss.
Seems like lipo it going to be.. I don't feel the time will show that big of an improvement.
Frustrating, $ 11,000$ lots of inconvenience, pain ect...
Not Happy.
