Pros to tummy tuck, no more extra ski, clothes fitting better and more confidence. My motivation was seeing other women going through it and being so happy with their results. I am now 2 1/2 weeks PO and still in a bit of pain but each day gets better for me. I wish I would have know that it was going to take longer than I expected to recover even though I feel better I am not 100%

Hi Sobando! I'm 18 days PO and can totally relate. Somehow I thought since I was in great shape and worked out several times a week and ate well, that in two to three weeks top I would be at 100% too. While yes, every day I'm getting better. Walking a little faster and standing a little straighter. Recovery is still a process that requires both time and patience. However, the end results will totally be worth it!!!

Hello ladies, I am now 3 days shy of being 4 weeks PO! I am now able to stand up straight a little more and a little longer! I still find it comfortable to hunch over just a smidge! I have resumed activities slowly! I made the mistake of feeling so good on saturday that I went out for my birthday and held several drinks had crazy sex with the hubby and paid for it all the next day and on Monday. I was so swollen and miserable! With that being said my Advice is take it slow, slow, slow! Don't be a goofball like me and mess up!! :(

OMG! I was doing my nightly ritual of putting Scar guard on me and noticed that they forgot to take a suture out, I tried pulling it myself but It's stuck in there and it almost looked like if I tugged any harder I was going to tear!! called the PS office this morning they told me not to worry about it they would take it out next appointment! Not a happy camper right now!!

Hello to all the march 2013 Tummy tuckers, it's been so long for me. I am now at 2 weeks shy of 6 months. I feel a whole lot better than I did several months ago. I love the results and have been wearing a bikin like it's nobody's business! My clothes fit me great and I look great. I just have to remind myself that it's only been six months cause I do still swell any one else with that problem?
