Tummy Tuck W/Lipo of Flanks - Plainfield, IL

I thought it would be good to send a update on my procedure. I must say that I'm happy with my results. I'm back in the gym getting my self toned up and living healthy. It feels great to get up and grab my clothes and go. I'm happy not to worry about a girdle to hold in that muffin top. I want to lose 10 lbs so that's my new goal. Wish me luck!

I'm 4 weeks post op and I can say that things are getting better. I'm still not able to exercise but boy I can't wait to get to the gym. I have so much water weight and I hate that feeling. I go see my PS next Monday and I'm hoping that she at least clears me to do light cardio. I must say that I'm getting so many compliments but in all honesty I've gained weight but people can't tell. I need to lose 10lbs to be at my goal weight. I was so surprised that I can fit a size medium in shirts now. That feels really nice. I'm using scare cream daily and my navel is healing well.

Ok, I'm 16 days PO and I'm back to work on half days. My PS took the tape off my scare and it's not that bad. I'm healing very well and the swelling has gone down. I'm using scare cream now and it's really soothing when I rub it on. My scar is dark but I can see it getting lighter as time goes on. My swelling is worse at night but that's expected at this point. I'm still only taking ibuprofen as needed. I did come home today and take a nap because I was so tired from working just half a day. We have had unseasonably warm weather here. It was 86 degrees today and boy did I want to take my normal 7 mile run but of course I didn't. I did get a chance to wear a cute shirt and pants and boy did my co-workers notice how small my waist was. It felt good to wear a comfortable shirt and not see that tire around my waist. I posted new pics. Happy healing ladies.
