3 months!
WORTH IT$10,000
It's been 3 months (yesterday) since my TT and I am so so happy. It's definitely been a life changer for me. I don't feel like I just have a mommy body that I can't change- I feel like I got "me" back. I definitely still have some work to do as far as toning and losing some weight on the rest of my body- but I know it'll happen once I finally have some gym time. Busy season at work for me ends around the end of November- so might have to make a personal trainer a Christmas wish :)
scar is about the same as last update- not fading much more yet. Still a tiny dog ear on the left- we'll reevaluate at 6 months there. Surgeon says I still have a little swelling on my flanks but he's very pleased with the results?

2 months!
Wow it's been 2 months already!
I'm still very very happy with the results. My scar is nice and thin- just a little ugly where the drains were in at my hips- but I'll be patient with those.
I can pretty much do just about everything I was doing presurg.- just still being careful with lifting. I haven't gone back to the gym yet but plan to start that back
Up next week. I have been walking a lot outside though and that's been fine.
My swelling is still worse after a busy day, but that's expected.
Clothes fit great, just need to get back to the gym and tone up the other areas!
Down 3 sizes since surgery!

Down 2 pants sizes in a month!
Today is exactly one month since my surgery! First day of taking off my compression garment all day- which so far I don't like at all! I just have on spanx and don't feel like they are supportive enough. Any recommendations for this transition????
I did try on pants today and am easily down 2 sizes, sweeeeet! Hopefully once the swelling subsides it'll be one more. Can't wait to hit the gym and work these flabby thighs now :p

HI! I'm only a few hours from you in the Quad-cities...and you look GREAT! Hoping I will look the same, and drop 2 pants sizes in a month. I'll be going back to work in a month,(after my sx) and only wear yoga pants....WITH A BIG TOP! lol
Can't wait to follow your progress!

Hi... Shopping for you is going to be extra fun this holiday season! As for the CG vs. Spanx. I got myself a waist slimmer belt. Most stores carry them in their exercise equip/ supplies shelves. It is only about 10 inches wide and has Velcro so it is easy on and off. Hope that halos some.
