Blown away!

I have had a mommy makeover scheduled since February 2019. I had done everything possible to get my body in shape to the best of my ability. From Zumba, weight lifting, kickboxing, and combat training. I received my orange belt in kickboxing and trained for races including competing in the spartan and terrain races. I had 2 csection babies and gained 80 lbs after I gave birth to them. So I lost that 80 lbs and gained so much confidence. Nothing had changed the torn muscles and saggy skin in my tummy nor my flat pancaked breast. So I opted for a mommy makeover. My surgery date was November 25th 2019. I am now 20 days post op and I am feeling excellent. My PS was Dr. Bolling in Foley AL and Fayette AL.
I had decided to go to him after reading all of the amazing reviews and his tummy tucks/ breast lift and implants looked the most natural to me.
Their office is top notch and the Fayette medical center staff was so professional and friendly. I am only day 20 in my post op but I see such a huge difference and I know I still have more swelling to go down. Couldn't be more pleased!

As Far as soreness goes, I don’t have any sensation on my incision line. I still feel a little pulling and soreness on my ab area. But that is very small. It’s usually just when I am standing up or bending over. Other than that I am recovering very well. As far as scar treatments, I have not started that yet. I have purchased some Maderma gel and some silicone strips. I intend on using those at the six week mark. All of my incisions are closed I just wanted to give it one extra week to finalize the healing on the incision area. I have not been in the clear to start working out yet, I do see my doctor January 16. I think next week I’m going to do some light walking on the treadmill and stairclimbers and introduce some light weights. I have started using some light weights at the house and I don’t feel any pain at all. However, I am an avid gym junkie and I am used to working out to the fullest. So I think my body already has some of that left in it LOL. This last week has been super hard with Christmas careers, so I am doing the best that I can as far as my eating plan. I have overindulged on a couple of things over the past couple of days but I plan on getting on track after the New Year’s is over. A lot of my swelling is gone down especially in the morning. I noticed that in the evening, my swelling is really bad around my incision line and my mons pubis. I don’t really have any swelling above my belly button. However, when I overeat I feel swelling in the area. Other than that I’m doing great and I am feeling a little bit better every single day.

Finally able to work out!
I had my first workout today and I felt amazing. I did kickboxing at a local private gym which involved running laps, bagwork, kicks, squats punching, burpees, push-ups, sit-ups etc. lots of good stuff.
I skipped all of the floor work. I already knew I couldn’t do push-ups and sit-ups. Other than that I was able to keep up with everyone.
I am definitely in swell hell at the moment and I’ve been exhausted all day! However, my body tummy isn’t sore so that means I am safe. I am happy I listened to my body and didn’t push it beyond the limit. Just happy to be back! 6 weeks has been a tuning point for me. I no longer have any pain. I feel good sleeping on both sides. I still swell in the evenings and I’m still wearing my faja and when I’m not wearing that, I am wearing a waist trainer or spanx of some sort. I started my scar therapy Friday of last week. I bought silicone strips and I can already see a more fattened line on my tummy tuck incision and breast incision: they work well!
Can’t wait to get rid of this swelling and see the final results!!!
