12 weeks (3 months) Post-Op
WORTH IT$7,500
3 months already? Man, the time has flown by- I'm feeling really good, most of the swelling is gone but I still seem to be carrying some swelling/fluid in my hips and upper thighs. If I work out or in days at work, I still get swollen at the end of the day, especially in the mons/pubic area. My scar and belly button are healing well. I have one small "dog ear" on my left side that my surgeon is going to fix in her office in 2 weeks, other than that I can't complain. I'm very happy with my results and would do it again in a minute!

Awesome results!!!:-)
Thank you!
you look great!! Did you lose a lot of weight also, or is this all the TT? I hope my results are as good!
Thank you! I've lost #17 lbs since surgery- I lost that in the first 3 weeks. My doctor removed 7lbs of skin and Lipo 2.5 of fat. So 7 lbs on my own I guess, but I'm not able to eat as much since surgery- I think the tightness against my stomach has been a benefit, it's hurts if I over eat.. Part of her style of tummy tuck is also body con touring- she helped me get my 6 pack going lol.. But I have started back to the gym in this last week, need to try to get some butt back and tone up my back and arms!
You look great!
Thank you!
You look great!!! I even see abs!!
Thank you! I know!? Crazy what stitching some muscles together can do!?

6 wk Post-Op
6 weeks post-op and feeling pretty good. Been back at work for a week, still a lot of swelling at the end of my 12 hour shifts. Mostly in my hips/low pubic area.. Still feel bigger there than before surgery, praying that there is still swelling to go down. I ran 2.5 miles today and did some arm weight, felt pretty good. Hoping to get the last swelling and try to tone the areas my PS did contouring on. Anxious to see what another 6 weeks brings!

You look great! Major difference. I will be 6 weeks tomorrow. Had my follow up today. Got the ok for "light weights" and ok to run. Yay!! So when you run are you wearing any kind of binder or cg? I have been walking 3 miles on the treadmill with spanx on but the thought of running and sweating with spanx on is not appealing. Think I would be ok without?
I still wear my cg unless I go out of the house, so to work and gym I still wear spanx. I plan on it until the swelling goes away more- yes extra sweating happens but I just figure more calories burned! Lol
