11 weeks post Tummy Tuck surgery
I feel great! I love the work that was done on me, very pleased. I have a new looking stomach.
I have little numbness, very little around my belly button.
I go for my final follow up on 9/16.
I have been light jogging 1-2 miles, brisk walking
as much as I want. Light aerobics (Zumba) 3 days per week.
I'm out of my binder, use it when working out. I wear full Spanx when I work mon - fri.
It has been a great experience and pain free.
I will take an updated pic next week at 12 weeks.

6 Weeks Post Tummy Tuck w/Muscle Repair Surgery
Can you all believe it? 6 Weeks has passed by so quickly. It has been such a journey and learning experience.
I'm still walking, 5-6 miles per day. That's about it for now until cleared to do more.
I go for my 6 week follow-up on this Friday.
My abdomen looks the same. No change. I'm happy. I will not be flat as I did not have Lipo Suction .....I have to work on fat busting myself when cleared to fully exercise.. PICS uploaded.
My stomach is slightly numb still just around belly button area. I have PICS uploaded already.
Thank you all who have inspired me, rode with me on this journey, cheered me through, etc.
I will be on this site staying in touch.

Week 4 post tummy tuck w/muscle repair
I'm feeling good. Doing ok. I'm still slowly walking, up to 5 miles per day. Half in early am, half in evening.
With week 3 & 4 I'm noticing muscle tightening in lower abdomen, around belly button area and below. It feels like quivering sometimes, at other times feels like tightening, possibly spasm like. Has any of you experience the same thing? Weird feeling.
I'm still in the recliner .....uugghhh ....... Hard to get a good night sleep. I'm so over the recliner. I have tried to lay in bed, it's more uncomfortable. How long before any of you were able to sleep in your bed again?
My next follow up August 12th. Then back to work on 15th, so not ready.
Hope to hear from you all.

Did you (or do you) feel abdominal tightening in lower abdomen area? Like a spasm or something? Or maybe the muscles are tightening up, I can't tell.
When I feel my stomach, from belly button down to incision site feels firm, tight. Is that the norm? It's a new feeling than my old abdomen. I'm in no pain.
I understand, from realself doctors, that muscle spasms can be normal too.
Love to hear your feedback?
