Hi all! I'm 6 weeks post op as of Tuesday, yay! Tuesday I started my exercises again!! Thank god, I was about to die not doing anything. Today is only my 3rd day back at running, but I'm running 2.5 miles and it actually feels like it's easier now then before surgery. I wonder if it's because I don't have my flabby tummy rockin' back and fourth? I'm going to start strength training next week just because I still feel like some of my movements are stiff and I feel like I'm going to hurt something, soooo I'll take my time! Everyday gets better! I'm feeling fab and sexy!! My husband CAN NOT keep his hands off me and I love it :) My clothes feel better, I'm wearing cute tops now and am searching for a sexy dress for an even I have coming up later this month. I'm also down about 9 lbs since surgery. I still have swollen in my tummy and have the "muffin top" line right above my scar. My nurse said that can be months, but it's swelling and my scar, so I can rub that carefully to help with that. My girls are coming along, still a different shape that I had in mind, but I do think they look more natural and they still look better then they did. Hope are all well!!

Hey everyone! Wowzers I have been busy. I'm 5 weeks post op and I'm back to doing all normal activities, but exercising. I'm a mom first and I need to lift my son now and then. I'm still getting better every day. My tummy is swollen still by my incision, like I have a little muffin top. I hope it goes away, it still looks better then it did before surgery. My boobs haven't "settled" yet I don't think. Dr said it would be 2-4 months, I hope my shape is a little different when they settle. I do think they look pretty natural, they even kinda flatten out when I lay on my back! I thought they would stand straight up, oh well! I'm sure they are swollen still also, they are bigger I think now then before surgery. Maybe they are just up more. I tried on some no underwire bras and VS and the DD were toooooo small...hopefully swelling! I'm ready to start running, few more days :) my husband loves the new body and sex life is back-carefully, but it's back!! Hurts to laugh hard or sneeze still, but tolerable. Have put on jeans and they are big around my tummy area, feels great! Already am more confident in jeans and a tank top, so great! I'm glad I did this, pry would do it again, but this is a
NO joke surgery and recovery and I dont want to go through it again, ever!! Ugh!! People at work have NO idea, I hid my tummy well and always have had big girls!...I'll get some new pics up soon! Haven't been back to the Dr office since surgery, doing email, phone and pictures. He wants to see me in the next couple months, as well as I want to see him. Been nice because we are so far away. Hope you are all well :) excuse typos, I'm using my phone :/

Really enjoyed your story. Thanks for all the honesty, it's good to know that we are not alone in our unique experience with this type of procedure. You look great, I am glad o hear that week 5 is such a good one. I will be 6 weeks post-op when I go to Vegas so I'm hoping to be doing as well as you are

I'm two weeks post op today, already. It is a SLOW healing process, but I can't believe that it's been two weeks already. I'm feeling a tad better everyday. I know that it takes time and a lot of it! I have pains in/around my breasts more then anything and I guess my back, but that is from walking funny :) BUT my back is much better as is my walking. Not being able to do my normal every day activities is what kills me most, more then anything. I still have my drain, if that's at 15cc tomorrow it gets to come out and my husband will be the doctor that takes it out!! I'm kinda scared to take it out, but I know that it can't be any worse pain then what I have already been through and it's quick. I'm ready for it to be gone!! I started back to work yesterday, lil tired yesterday from that but feel fine today. Haven't really been lookin' at my tummy or boobs, just waiting waiting waiting to heal heal heal!! Hope all is well, keep healing ladies!! :)
