I decided to come back and give a 2 year review on my TT. I have no regrets. Feeling great, told I look great and able to wear a bikini to the beach.

It is a little over 2 months since my surgery and I am feeling pretty good. I have a major tightness in the tummy that at times feels like it will bust but nothing I can't handle.

I am back to running...when I run I blow up like a frog, but it goes down after I rest.

I am only wearing my binder now while I run but otherwise I am binder free. My PS said not to wear it otherwise.

I do wear those tight comprssion shirts when i feel a little of swelling but that is for vanity not for the purpose of helping the swelling.

I drink lots of water...maybe too much but all is good.

Hi HealthyNewfie...wondering if you are still online. I have had a consult with Dr. Cluett and am about 90% sure I am going to go for a FTT. I am also a runner and don't know if all the recovery time is worth it. How are you doing now? -Matty

17 months and don't regret my decision. I never regained feeling in my tummy, always numb which is weird but no regrets. Back to running fulltime.

TT seems to be a little too long recovery time..(time of work). Have anyone had Liposuction in NL. The area that bothers me the most is my back, between bra and waist...probably referred to as flank. Wondering if anyone had it done, referrals or cost. Thanks..

7 weeks PO and I feel good but "fat" because of the lack of exercise. I am back to running ..ok maybe jogging but I have been wearing my compression garment when I run because the swell hell comes back with a vengeance.

PS said it was ok to run just listen to my body...so that is what I am doing. I tend to go out running after supper so I can go home put on my pj's and relax for the night with my swollen tummy.

Besides that all is good.

Healthynewife, you are one week ahead of me! I haven't started exercising yet, but sure want to. Good to hear all is going well.
