3 YEARS POST OP!! I'M BAAAAAAACK!
WORTH IT$7,800
Wow! Just read through my entire tummy tuck ordeal! I absolutely cannot believe it's been 3 years! My stomach still looks fantastic! I couldn't be happier! I encourage everyone who is thinking about it to 'Just Do It'!!
I am now 18 days from a breast reduction!!! I wanted both performed back when I had the TT, but the surgeon said he would not perform both at the same time. After the TT, I swore that I would NEVER have another elective surgery! I guess time does heal, because I have been ready for about a year!
I am still doing crossfit 3-4 times per week, and these large breasts have got to go! LOL! Guess I need to change this to the Breast Reduction site, but I wanted everyone to know that my TT was a complete success!!!

Finally hit the 4 month mark on 2/13/12. Over the weekend I FINALLY feel ok at night to give up my binder! Whew, does that feel good! I am doing CrossFit workouts not 4-5 times a week and LOVING it! Starting to see some definition in my abs!
Yay! I was longing for this day, and it's finally here! So glad I did this for myself but boy was it tough!
Good luck to everyone!!

Congrats on ditching the binder!! I am still wearing spanx tanks and can't even imagine giving them up. It's totally second nature now. Perhaps I'll brave a day w/o one soon. The last time I tried (3 months?) I ended up extra swollen for days.
Congrats on the cross fit as well! super impressive. I'm working out hard once a week and easy about 2 other times. Still can't quite get back into it. I guess once you are out of the habit. My scar is thick in the middle. Is yours too? The ends are pretty flat but still red.
Thanks for the update!

Hello! I just read through your blog and wanted to tell you that it helped me feel a little better about my day. :) I'm 2 weeks po and trying not to be frustrated about the swelling, and it helped to read about someone that went through it and now is doing so amazing. Thank you!

Thanks finally! Yes, 2 weeks post op...man...I can vividly remember that! So glad I documented my journey because sometimes when I re-read my posts I have forgotten some of the details!
I still have swelling even at 4 months PO..it's in the night time just above my incision. I know it's temporary so I don't let it get me down anymore!
YOU CAN DO THIS!!

Thanks mommy! Yes, I am standing straight! It did take some time and the whole process can be quite frustrating...but hang in there! It's all worth it and it DOES get better! I was waiting and waiting to feel somewhat normal...then right at the 4 month mark it just hit me...**NORMAL**! Smacked me upside the head! Loving my new shape and can't imagine NOT having done this!
True, I would have not said that a month ago...so hand in there!
