Month 9 update
WORTH IT$24,000
It's been some time since my last update. I'm happy to say that my scars are healing quite nicely and I've started to develop muscle in my abdomen once again (feels like I'm 20 again :)).
I returned to Cross Fit 4 months after surgery. Sadly, I had to stop again as I was rear-ended 7 months post-surgery. I've now been relegated to walking and light weight lifing for my arms. Nevertheless, I'm extremely pleased with my results and happy to see my scars healing nicely.
I'm immensely grateful to Dr. Lowen for all of his efforts, my post-surgery care, and my amazing results.

You are amazing! Thank you so much for such a detailed review. I live in the area and have been contemplating a TT for 3 years now! I'm turning 45 years next month and I think this is going to be my gift! My main concern is recovery as I don't have any family support and few friends that I can ask for help. I am very surprised and (encouraged) that Dr. L. said you could walk a 1/2 on Jan 19. I run long distance (have run full and half marathons) and my fear is that I won't be able to run for 12 weeks. Best of Luck on your half! Take it easy, and don't feel bad if you don't finish, you can always walk/run 1/2 marathons but you won't want another TT!

Day 28... Walked 3 miles and am feeling soooo much better!
On Day 28th, I am both amazed and so ecstatic about my results. At this point, I could hug my Doctor to death :). I've gone on 2 walks this last week. The first one was 2 miles and the second was 3 miles. It felt a little strange and definitely felt tired after the first 2 miles. Since I'm scheduled for the Tinkerbell Half Marathon on Jan 19, 2014 in 3 weeks, I need to get ready somehow. The Dr. says I definitely cannot run the half marathon but he has no objections to me walking it. I'm excited, tentative, and slightly scared about my performance. As long as I finish, I'll be happy.
The hubby and I have also had sex since then. I was only brave enough to try it once about 2 days ago. I was on top and that felt better. And, no, I didn't wear my binding garments. LOL. I was a little self-conscious about the abdominal scar. But, honestly, given how amazingly flat my stomach is, I am not complaining!!! Have a look for yourself and let me know what you think.
