Day 6 post op
Yesterday was the first day I felt great. I’m walking around way more ( standing a little straighter ) and took no pain medication. Had a home care nurse tell me that my drains can come out Saturday which I’m excited for and super scared at the same time. Does anybody HATE their binder ? Causes me so get itchy Indentations, always sliding up and making my circulation feel funny. So I bought a foam board to try and keep the same compression but the garment itself from making marks on my skin. The whole day was great. But come bed time when I was trying to sleep I randomly felt nauseous and took an anti nausea pill. Which for whatever reason made me body all ti tingly and numb ? And I got zero sleep at all. Here’s to another day hopefully of no pain.
Day 5 post op tummy tuck.
Little update of the days cause I started late.
Day 1 was hell- after surgery in the hospital I was okay and felt quite good. The second I got home my entire body ached. Going to the bathroom took two people and a cane. Sitting and rising was excruciating. Couldn’t eat anything cause everytime I did I just threw it up.
Day 2. Was pretty much the same I found it almost impossible to walk even just to get to the bathroom. My incision site felt like it was on fire ( yes I was hunched over ) and I just was miserable.
Day 03 was a little better I forced myself to walk around the house a bit but my back muscles hurt the most than they ever had in my life. Sitting down in the same spot for longer than 2 hours hurt my butt. Lots and lots of naps. And I finally migrated to the couch which was oddly more comfortable than my bed. My drains almost stopped draining and have turned a yellow colour so I’m hoping to get this out ASAP because they’re super annoying.
Day 04 was a bit better with pain management I can walk more places around my house without help but I get out of breath easy and my back is still in a lot of pain. I had trouble staying awake today and slept almost the whole day. I’ve started rubbing arnica gel on my back and tummy to help with the swelling.

Extended tummy tuck and lipo of flanks
I just recently completed my tummy tuck, wanting to make some updates to see if my recovery is similar to other people!? Cause I'm strugggglllliinngg. In 2017 I weighed the most I ever had at 266 lbs and in a year and a half I got down to 145 lbs with a weight loss of around 120. I was left with a substantial amount of loose skin and finally decided to get a tummy tuck.
