I was so nervous about the procedure, the anesthesia, the risk of an infection etc. I was so not prepared for the recovery. ITS TOUGH!!! I walked hunch over for two weeks and Im still not sure if I'm standing completely upright. Pain killers help but even standing is a task. But even with all of that said MY RESULTS ARE AWESOME. My doctor did every thing we disgusts pre op, and Im in Love with my results. Oh and yes this recovery is nothing like recovering from a C-Section.

Hi! I feel pretty good. My tummy doesn't feel all that tight. I'm able to walk straight up which is really weird. I m starting to worry. I went to the dr. Today second day post op my hubby took a picture of my new tummy and it appears that I still have a roll.

What did the doctor say??

You are not kidding. Im on day 4. Really tough!!!!! And when I do walk around a little my lower back hurts. It is going to be worth it. My waist looks small but lower abs look so big. Just swelling im sure. I didn't this. It would be this rough. Glad you love the results!!

Ok so I am 3 weeks and 5 days post op and I still have a lot of swelling below belly button and in crotch area. Has anyone else had this? At this point, I am really regretting my decision to have the tt done :(

My doctor said "I'm a sweller" and just that my skin takes longer then some to go back to where it should be. He said I still have about 4lbs of swelling. Has anyone else had this?? Iim so tired of wearing sweatpants and leggins..
